Of the 250 green book sites listed along Route 66, over half are gone. Though, there are still some places that are still open & thriving, like The El Rancho Restaurant & Motel in Holbrook, Arizona.

For the interviewee, Mrs. Barge, she said that life was very sheltered for her. She grew up on the outskirts of Birmingham, living in what was called a shotgun house, which was just a 2 room house with not a lot to accompany it. Though she did have a sort of hard life living rather poor, but it wasn't hard to the point that she had to deal with knowing what discrimination was from an early age, seeing as there weren't a lot of white people around her area of living.
