While it seems foreign to so many people today, the issue of racial segregation was a HUGE controversy back in the 50's and 60's. Those that were against segregation were going to see their strongly held beliefs tossed aside and their children would be mixing with children of another race.

Again, while this seems such an anomaly today, back then it wasn't to much of the United States.
