The Oppression thaangggg

My quote is "Got in a fight with another man, he tried to cut me." I expect the fight to be like this

I think this shows how someone tried to beat or oppress Tom.   I cant relate to this quote because I have never been attacked before. But I feel like beating people sometimes. I can see how back then Tom couldve been accused for something false and get attacked. Which is exactly what happens in the story. Also, he couldve been attacked by racist people and he couldve been fighting for his rights but they probably didnt agree with him just like Rosa Parks but I dont think she got beaten for it. Another good example for that was how Martin Luther King Jr and how he got beaten and put in jail for fighting for his "Separate but Equal" rights. Tom couldve been treated badly going on a bus or going to drink water and he got so mad he wanted to fight. During this time period, this type of things used to always happen maybe on a daily basis.
