The essay is about racism that takes place in August Wilson’s “Fences”. In other words, explain how the moral of the story is to not let racism stop one from pursuing what they want. The essay needs to be 1,000 words (not including the Works Cited page, and it needs to be in MLA format. 3 quotes need to be from the story.
