                        3. messages from the author
                          1. Nobody is perfect based off their wealth or apperance
                            1. If you're brave and stand up for what you believe in them it might help towards chanigng it, like in callums sake the segreagation
                              1. Not everybody can understand your situation intill their in the situation themselves
                                1. That segreation and racism is powered by greed and power
                                  1. although segregation is a strong force keeping people apart it can also cause the oppisite effect, like sephy and callums love was stronger than the force of racism
                                    1. That love may not be how it seems to the younger viewers, love is more complicated and how love can't keep you together based off other accidents
