Viola Desmond

It was a normal day when Viola Desmond's car stopped working on her way to a meeting. The mechanic she brought her car to said that it would take a
few hours to fix her car, so Viola decided to go watch a movie. Little did she know that the theatre was segregated. As the movie started, she was
told to move to the upper section. Viola assumed that the cashier had made a mistake with her ticket, but that wasn’t the case. The reason she was
asked to move to the upper section was because she was black. When Viola refused to move they forcibly dragged her out of the theatre and put her
in jail! They charged her $20 for not paying the proper price for a downstairs ticket even though she did. Furthermore, they would not let her
defend herself in court.
