Question

Compare and contrast James’s public school experience with his mother’s public school experience. Identify at least two similarities and two differences in their experiences.

Answer 1

I inferred you are referring to the Characters of the book "The Color of Water".

Step-by-step explanation:

James and his mother Ruth both attended public schools, however, his mum experienced a racially divided public school environment.

However, because they were Jews, his mum chose a public school attended predominantly by Jewish students. In a sense, he experienced lesser discrimination since he was surrounded by those like him.
