Decades back, when a child, I was dragged along with an uncle, who is an Anglo, yes, I am a half breed, dragged along for a mule and wagon ride up to Broken Bow, maybe twenty miles away but a half day ride. . . . We were off to a general store to buy seed corn to plant, a special hybird out of Arkansas. . . .
We stop at a small diner, not much really, maybe a thousand square feet of building. We order early lunch, a real treat compared to our sparse diet on our farm. The owner of this diner comes over to our table, looks at my uncle, looks at me, "Mister, see those signs up there 'colored' and 'white' over the front door? You can sit here but the girl has to sit over there in the colored section."
Well, a real ruckus comes about, right quick. My uncle jumps up and clips the man across his chin, knocking him down, followed by my uncle giving him several good kicks to his side.
