They’re surrounded by airbrushed photos and the pressure to live up to an impossible ideal–even more so than we were when we were younger.

Long before she was one of the Little Rock Nine, Melba Pattillo Beals was a warrior. Frustrated by the laws that kept African Americans separate but very much unequal to whites, she had questions: Why couldn't she drink from a whites-only fountain? Why couldn't she feel safe beyond home - or even within the walls of church? Adults all told her: Hold your tongue. Be patient. Know your place.

La verità è che le bufale (o, meglio, la "cattiva informazione") rischiano di annidarsi un po' ovunque.
