Ep.4 - Margo Hinton, teacher (almost retired) from Troy Hill: racism incl. witnessing cross burning

from The Pittsburgh Convos by Storyburgh · host Storyburgh

In our third episode, we have the pleasure of chatting with the ever-energetic Margo Hinton from Troy Hill. We delve into a variety of topics that she previously shared at The Demilitarized Zone community storytelling event. This event took place at the Tripoli Street Community Center on September 1st, 2022, and our discussion serves as a follow-up to the intriguing narratives she presented there. The topics range from "lighter" one, such as the joy of joining a new church against a mother’s wishes, to more serious issues. These include the challenges of growing up in a predominantly white neighborhood and experiencing overt racism, manifested in horrifying acts such as cross burning and gun threats. While this episode can be viewed independently of Margo’s original presentation, gaining a deeper understanding of the context would be beneficial and can be achieved by watching or listening to her initial talk here: https://youtu.be/ue3ZR6GM0qI
