Lessons Angela learns while in the custody of the Hidden Oak School, where girls are either in the gold thread or the purple thread. Gold thread girls wear traditional school uniforms are allowed some freedoms and receive an education, purple thread girls, wear prison type overalls, have no freedom, no education and must self govern.
