I was 10 years old that Saturday in 1963. There was a knock at the door, and after I open it I was surprised to see a group of five strange men standing there. I quickly shut the door and ran to get my father. I had been told many times before not to answer the door unless one of my parents had told me to, and now I understood why. These five men were without a doubt the first fifth of that famous "25 robbers at my door"from the old hide-and-seek rhyme(iti), and I had almost let them in In a semi-panic I said something to my father about a gang(一帮歹徒等) of burglars at the door and he said, Good. Theyre right on time. Much to my shock. Dad not only let them in but also hook all of their hands The men all worked at Fisher Body Plant No I in Flint, Mich, with my father, and they sat where he told them to at our dining room table. Dad then passed out pencils and scrap paper and, from a box her had bought home earlier that day, handed each of them a sheet of paper with a series of math questions on it. Well start with…,” Dad said. The men came for three hours every Saturday, Sunday, Wednesday and Friday for the next two months. Dad explained that they had taken a test at the factory to be promoted to skilled trades and none had passed the main portion. This test was said to be the reason there was a very small percentage of African-Americans in any skilled trade at Fisher Body. Dad said he knew they could do the job if they were given a chance. I understood what my father was doing, but it wasn't until many years later that I appreciated it. remember the absolute joy on my father's face when he came home and told my mother, " They passed! They even want John to take the test again. They think he cheated somehow. He scored perfect on the math!” 1.
