Blacks are treated so horribly by most whites at this time, these children [in Mildred Taylor's Mississippi Bridge] have every right to be suspicious of Jeremy. Although Jeremy obviously didn't agree with the actions of his father and the other adults, the Logans may have even felt a sense of anger or resentment towards Jeremy for the way his race treated their race. It would be hard to accept someone whose entire race seemed to be persecuting yours.
