Corner Pocket Radio Fall 2011
While working with the students to prepare content for our first newsletter,we touched on a very important topic, "boy play or harassment". The girls talked openly about the lack of respect that is sometimes displayed by boys when they interact with the girls and the boys talked about why they...

I felt hatred once again but not for the white but I felt I was hated like the spirit of the Ku Klux Klan was looking upon me from the gates of hell ready to strangle me by my neck and hang me. It was a really scary feeling. And I was really upset that they were Christians because what they did…

America fought against a nation they felt restricted and halted their freedom and destiny as the world’s strongest nation. Slaves fought against a nation they felt restricted and halted their growth into a respected, idolized, and powerful race of people. So basically a nation who is halting…

Today, we get treated different just because I’m a black female. It affects me because if I was white I would be getting better treatment and not racial comments. Just because I’m black today that don’t mean I won’t be black for the rest of my life. So if I was a white female getting pulled over…

I saw so many things in the second half of the exhibit. I heard all kinds of music, people talking, etc. I saw a Ku Klux Klan gown and mask, it really hurt to see that and know that they are still around today. I also saw a bus and on it whites sat in the front and if blacks wanted to ride, they...

The 2nd part of the exhibit really interested me because it named many people I was familiar with such as Michael Jordan, Tupac, Jackson 5, Prince, and Gwendolyn Brooks. The first thing I saw when I walked in was the “KKK” and I got chills because they were white supremacists who killed and…

To walk through the exhibit and look at the pictures and objects is one thing, but to understand the hardship of the Africans is another thing. During my experience it was disturbing yet inspiring. It was truly a life changing experience. I tried to understand how it would feel if I was taken…

One time I had went to the store with my ma and all these white people were just staring at me. I really wasn’t thinking about it, for real. I walk around the store, picking stuff up for my ma and a lady comes up to me and asked me are you a thug or a banger. I said no. Just because I got tattoos...

The beginning of the exhibit showed all of the hardships of the past, but it also showed you how much we prospered during the process of gaining equal rights. African Americans basically went through Hades to show that they can overcome anything that the world throws at them.

When I went through the exhibit I felt as if it was a flashback to black history. I was not happy nor was I sad because of some the things I saw were heartbreaking, joyful painful, angry, proud, and much, much more. One of the flashbacks were when I saw Tupac one the most successful musician and...

As I walked through the exhibit, I felt sad at just the thought of how African Americans were treated like dogs and considered property and having a receipt. I didn’t feel as bad after seeing the other half of the exhibit because it was the start of equal rights and the end of slavery.

Living in a predominantly black neighborhood, men and young guys will always try to talk to you. They always assume that I’m older than what I am. I look like a mom and I look like I have a job so guys would mistake me for a grown woman when I’m only a kid. When that happens, it makes me feel…

When I reached the church part, I felt like at home because I’m used to church and the singing environment. Today during the exhibit I saw black and gospel motivators. Black soul music that came from our ancestors is great! I really enjoy that part. It made me feel good being an African American...

Mckenzie Marshall
My name is McKenzie Marshall and I attend BDHS. My thoughts and feeling about the 1st half of the exhibit were kind of ironic because America was labeled the “land of the free” yet slaves weren’t free. They were mistreated. It sickens me to see that no matter how much the black people progressed…
