The two guys in the picture, one of them is a captain and one of them is an African American who wants to get into the boat. The African American male tried to sneak into the boat but was caught by the guards. He is begging the captain if he could get on the boat but the captain is telling him that no african american are allowed in the boat. The African american guy feels sad and discouraged while the captain is calm and explains to the african american guy. The african american will not get on the boat and the boat will leave without him.
