Summary

"The boys who had already gotten beat were allowed to go to their work assignments. They went out the side door. Dozier would open the front door and motion another boy inside. He would smile and touch a finger to his lip to caution quiet in the line. He liked us to be orderly. Some couldn't be orderly. A couple young ones, they were already pissing in their pants and crying. Some just looked up at him and begged Please! Please! Please?! But that didn't do no damn good. He just pushed the kid on into the WHITE HOUSE while the rest of us listened. Some of the kids were calling for God or Jesus to help them, while others were crying Mama, Mama, Mama. Nothing helped. The beatings just went on. And on. Some of us never uttered a sound, even though we were just as scared as the others. If you were there, you will dream about them forever."--Page 4 of cover
