Question

Where does Byron spend his last night in Michigan? [The Watsons Go To Birmingham]

Answer 1

Answer:

Byron spends his last night in Michigan in his parents' room.

Explanation:

"The Watsons Go to Birmingham - 1963" is a novel by author Christopher Paul Curtis. Byron is the oldest son of Momma and Dad Watson. He is a bully at school and gets into so much trouble that his parents end up making a difficult decision. They are all going to Birmingham, Alabama, to visit. Byron, however, will have to stay there for the whole summer. Before they leave, on their last night in Michigan, Byron is forced by his parents to sleep in their room with them.

Back in 1963, the Civil Rights Movement was grand, but so was the repression against it. And Birmingham was a city where confrontation between protesters and officers would get quite bloody. It may sound strange for parents to send their son there, but Dad says Byron needs to learn about real life, about the right things.
