Journal entry #2:What could Hiram,anyone else have done or do to stop crime?

I believe Hiram or anyone else could've start protest to help stop crime. Hiram also could've stop crime with a segregation march. A segregation march could've helped if not most than some of the white folk who are against black freedom. Even though slavery wasn't legal back in the 40's & 50's there, it was still goin on because of the blacks working in the fields of the whites. That is one of the major reasons how slavery was still goin on. Blacks were being treated unfair everytime they went to work. The whites who were against the crime in their neighborhoods could've held town hall meetings. Another way is speaking with the city council to push the law against doing harm towards the oppisite race for apparent reason.
