Answer:

The streets are unusually crowded.

Explanation:

"Warriors Don't Cry" by Melba Pattillo Beals is an autobiographical account of the Civil war and the anti racism movement of which she was a huge part. She along with some black men and women, displayed extreme courage and dedication to bring about change during the most turbulent of times in American history.

The given excerpt from the text shows a great deal of repetition where Beals talked of how many cars and traffic was there, with the "unusual" number of whites too. This repetition laid emphasis on the "unusually" crowded streets which never used to be before. This also led the narrator to fear but also at the same time, be aware of the changes that she and the the blacks had to endure.
