Answer:

Violent

Step-by-step explanation:

"The Rockpile" is a short story by James Baldwin. In this story, we meet two children, Roy and John. The children are brothers, and they are not allowed to play on the "rockpile" like most kids in their neighbourhood. However, Roy decides to go anyway. When John gets to the rockpile, he gets hurt, and we learn that this is a violent and aggressive environment.
