Once upon a time, in the South, there was a big race to see who could run the fastest. The race was open to all animals, but the segregation laws said that each animal had to run in its own separate race based on its species. But one day, a clever fox named Freddie decided to challenge the laws. He joined the race meant only for horses and won it! The Supreme Court was asked to rule on this and they upheld Freddie's victory. From that day on, all races were combined and everyone ran together as one big happy family.

Reflections

1. Why did the segregation laws exist in the South?
2. How did Freddie the fox feel about the segregation laws?
3. What did Freddie do that was different from the other animals in the race?
4. Why did Freddie's victory lead to change in the South?
5. What does the story teach us about fairness and equality?
