- They washed one another's feet and pledged to take out the racism in their churches.

- Mary is optimistic because even though she was rejected into a college because of her skin color, she thought to herself, well if she couldn't go to Africa then she decided to teach her people right at her home place in the South.

- Why did they wash other's feet and not their mouth, which spoke of racism?

- Who started racism?

- Who helped Mary Bethune with building the school?

- Why do we tempt to take the shortcuts when it comes to certain work?
