Mr. Homer Plessy and Me

Heyyy!!!
Ok, so I got an EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW with the one and only Mr. Homer Plessy! He's a really nice guy, and I think that he was wrongfully accused of breaking the "Separate Car Act". Here's how it went!!

Charlotte Lockwell: "Hello, Mr. Plessy, and thank you for talking to me."
Homer Plessy: "It's my pleasure, Miss Lockwell."
CL: "So I was in the same car as you when the incident took place. From where I was sitting, it looked like you handeled the situation very well. Were you nervous?"
HP: "Thank you, but I will admit I was nervouse, but not for me. For my family. I was nervous about what would hapen to them if I were to get into trouble."
CL: "I can see how you would think that. So you are only 1/8th black?"
HP: "Yes. But I don't see what that's got to do with my seating choice. People should be able to sit where ever they want. Regardless of their skin."
CL: I completely agree with you, Mr. Plessy. Personally, I don't understand the "Separate Car Act" myself. I find it stupid."
HP: "Why thank you, Charlotte. It's nice to see young people such as yourself thinking about politics and what's going on in the world around them."
CL: "Well, Mr. Homer, I believe that's all the time I have. My mother wants me to help her garden. (I don't like gardening) Good Luck with your case tomorrow!"
HP: "Charlotte, it's been a pleasure to talk to you, and thank you for your kindness."

Well folks, there ya have it! Mr. Homer Plessy in the flesh!
