    Jona, you’re on the right track. Look again at your entries for steps 3 & 4. Here, you jump from a statement that is fairly specific to one that is too general. I would say go back to what you’ve written for step 3 and work on being more specific about what you mean by “the reality of the Civil Rights” and “the vision of the photographer.” Then, connect your more specific ideas about these phrases to the photograph of Parks.
