Long Answer

1. Quinn realizes that while he seemingly can walk away from racism, others cannot; he is in fact privileged by his skin color. Through speaking with Jill, he concludes that his white skin color is like a “shield”; he can choose to walk away without being affected by racism or discrimination. (Chapter 9)

2. Quinn struggles to speak up because of his personal relationship with Guzzo and Officer Galluzzo. Paul helped to take care of Quinn when Quinn’s father passed away; however, Quinn now disagrees with Paul’s actions and works toward acting on his convictions by attending the march.
