The story takes place in the 1940s and in the state of Louisiana, in a small town called Bayonne. The date is really important because during these years, the Jim Crow laws still existed. These laws mandated the segregation between Whites and Blacks. In the story, there was the quarter for only Blacks with the church, theater, and school only for Blacks.

I hope I could answer your question.
