Question

How does Marguerite finally get a job on the streetcars?

Answer 1

This is how Marguerite finally gets a job on the streetcars:

Marguerite does not accept rejection. She insists and persists. At first, the streetcar company tells her to go away because of her skin color. However, she keeps on coming back until they finally allow her to fill in an application.

After taking some tests, she finally becomes the first black streetcar conductor in San Francisco.
