Answer:
This excerpt best helps readers make a connection to world events:
A. by offering an example of racial segregation.
Explanation:
By Cynthia Levinson, "We’ve Got a Job: The 1963 Children’s March" is a book about some of the people who took part in the march against segregation in Alabama. Between 3,000 and 4,000 children protested, and among them was Washington Booker, aka Wash.
The excerpt we are analyzing here offers clears examples of segregation. African Americans, like Wash, were not allowed in certain places. The differences were huge. Places attended by white people were better, more modern, more comfortable. African Americans were told to accept a harsher reality - such as eating in the basement standing up. But they did not, and bravely faced jail time to demand equality.
