I think we might have been wrong for not telling an adult, but our decision to simply stick together that day did work.
Because we were only dealing with rumors.  If we had heard with our own ears that a certain group of kids was going to jump one of us, we might have confronted that group.  
What about you? Did any of those football and baseball and drum line guys actually hear about white boy day directly from the black kids that were threatening to do it? Or did they just confront and threaten a socially prominent black guy over nothing?

Doesn't matter if it was true and they didn't hurt him. They just sent a message. And in my school (48%/46% w/b split) it's quite likely that it was true, we had several instances of racial violence in my four years.
