Mason-Saxon Memory Analysis

The discriminating golf club

In the “Mason-Dixon Memory” a St. Frederick High School golf team was invited to a Southern “White people only” golf club tournament, but when the managers of the golf club realized in fact that one of the team mates was not caucasian they did not want him to compete but they did want his team to play since they were an all caucasian team with the exception of him, Dondre Green.The golf was was not justified for doing what they did, they were also not thinking right because they lost a whole team of gulf players for being race discriminators.The golf club had invited the “team” but wanting the players to kick out one of their own team mate because he is a different race and a different color than other people is cruel in their part.Others may think that the golf team was justified for doing what they did because did not know the team had an African-American and their gold club is a white only club.Additionally, discriminating people by their race is wrong put yourself in their position how would you feel.

Furthemore, they have let caucasoids from all over to come and join them into the golf club, After that they don't let you in because your a different color is unjustified and undignified. Additionally, what would have happened if you were colorblind then you would see things like

they were meant to be, “you would have see everyone equally”Martin Luther King dream speech. Not letting in different colors has actually hurt some people ,also it is unfair for all those who have done nothing wrong to deserve this kind of treatment or being judged in such a harsh manner.
Giving people equal treatment is important, a man who happened to there when Dondre wa giving a speech at the golf club remembered about when he was a younger he himself went through something almost the same as Dondre was at that time, Clifton was not able to assist the field trip to a theme park because he was African-American.
Moreover, an additional problem was the team was not well known to the golf club owners they did not know what to expect from a bunch of boys from a high school golf club how were they supposed to know that they had an African-American player on their team.Dondre was left in a very uncomfortable situation before his speech to the gold club managers ,because they were probably judging him just because of his color, also when he was a kid most of his friends were in fact Caucasians and they didn’t have a problem with color, but on April 17, 1991 his African-Americans provoked an incident that happened to have made the nationwide news.
Finally when he was called up to speak he said “For the past two years I’ve been a member of the St.

Frederick High School golf team, and though I was the only black member, I’ve always felt at home playing with an almost all caucasian country clubs across Louisiana.”Therefore, he has been used to playing with a almost all white team and he has had not had any problems with Causians so why should Caucasians have a problem with people like Dondre who have no problems with caucasians.Additionally, they should actually be honored that they have such a honest good man that has no problems with what race or color you are black, brown, white, or even

orange.
Others may say that the golf club was justified they might have said that because during those times some African-Americans were troublemakers and provoked incidents and some judgemental people must have thought that all African-Americans are the same.It might have been the same situation with Dondre Green, they must have thought that Dondre was just looking for a place to cause some trouble and disorder,so they did not want him to even stand there much less compete in the competion.He wanted people to see for themselves when he gave his team a choice if they wanted to compete, but deal with Dondre not competeing of do they want to leave and go home with Dondre.That might have affected some of the palyers on Dondre’s because some of them might have been looking forward to this and were really excited with the idea of competeing in a competition with might be some profectionals.So that might have been the judgment of some people towards the golf club being justified or not.
Harsh judgement against different races is wrong,judgement can hurt the feelings of someone else,try remembering a time when you were picked on imagine that feeling every day when someone looks at you, now think about some people you might have hurt does it really feel right to hurt someone because of their looks.Caucasians are always judging African-Americans calling them “Negroes” and treating them more like slaves, objects, or even possessions.The golf club was not justified for acting in they way they did.Although, others may disagree and say that they were justified.In conclusion racism was pretty terrible back then, Caucasians actually lost more than they would have thought for being racist, fro example the golf club lost a high school golf players, respect from African-Americans, and they lost their self-respect, because you don’t get what you don’t give.
