Here is my opening paragraph. I need one more sentence for the opening paragraph according to my teacher. I'm going to add it at the end. Here is my opening paragraph so far:

America was not always a country where all races, ethnicities and religions were celebrated. From the seventeenth century to the middle of the nineteenth century there were plantations where slaves from Arica worked all day for no pay and just enough food to not starve. However, after slavery was abolished in the middle of the nineteenth century, life for the freed slaves was not much better. African Americans suffered from bigotry, discrimination, and segregation from the middle of the nineteenth century to the m middle of the twentieth century. [Closing sentence for opening paragraph]

What should the closing sentence for my opening paragraph be so I could get into the hardships of blacks? What will connect the opening to the body? I just need one clever sentence that will smoothly get into the paper.
Thnx

I know this is probably a really easy problem, but I've been doing summer review problems all day, I skipped this one and came back to it so now my brain is fried so please help, heres the problem:

At Indianapolis Speedway, one lap is 2.5 miles in length. The average speed of an Indy racing car is 190mph.

How many seconds would it take to complete one lap?

I thought it would be

190mph/1mile = 11400sec/1mile = 20500sec/1lap or 2.5 miles

is that right?

ok i did my homework, im just looking for other views since my take is that its kind of sappy; if anyone ever actually feels like this its beyond me but i'd love to hear from you cos my grade depends on it. it's by a local poet (glasgow)....
i also have to ' give it a suitable title and explain my choice'. i was warned by my english teacher that she expected a title that wasnt just a line from the poem itself.
so heres the poem:
times like these
remind me of you
im forgetting your face
and it scares me
your voice, the feel of your fingertips
hovers just out of reach
like a shadow in the dark
i wonder if
one day
i'll wake up
with no memory of you
when all i want
all i wanted
was you
