It is unequal and unfair that men and women cannot eat in the same restaurant especially given that there isn't just for women. She also realizes that the woman who planted the red rose on her at the train station was an anti-suffragist, and was staying in an anti-room at the hotel. She finds she can find sandwiches if she goes to the antis meeting. As she listens to them speak, She learns how they are getting men to change their minds about voting for the Susan. B Anthony amendment. Violet overheard some people talking and they said, "Mayhew" and she got really excited to finally see Chloe.

She thought about how maybe she could be a spy and tell the suffragists what they were doing. She then went to look for Mr.Martin and Myrtle and found them very dirty looking like hoboes at the train yard.  Mr.Martin and Chloe had a heated discussion at first but then you can tell they were happy to see each other.

We see it first on page 154 when Mr.Martin and Myrtle are trying to find food, and they go and sit at a counter. Instead of serving them, the boy working there goes to call the police because Myrtle is colored, and segregation laws and opinions at the time prevented her from eating in places where white people ate. At another place, Mr.Martin is told, Myrtle can only be served in the alley, and after trying multiple places they end up eating in an alley because Myrtle can't eat anywhere else.]]> 2023-05-01 12:50:59 UTC https://padlet.com/sv41280/j2ibg0k0yxc962f7/wish/2573679567 sv41280 https://padlet.com/sv41280/j2ibg0k0yxc962f7/wish/2575206629 Myrtle tries to distract Mr.Martin so he won't get arrested by talking to him about Chloe and hinting that they should get married and adopt her.
