Racism struggles By- Arshelle Johnson

The main story of my podcast is looking into the early life of my mom and how growing up in a white neighborhood affected her. I am telling the story of how she crossed the boundary of the racism and not letting it hold her back.Everyone knows that growing up can be a struggle in it selfs. But try growing up in the 70's in a predominantly white neighboorhood. How can someone deal with the small racist digs everyday, from not only students but teachers.

When talking to my I feel like I learned a lot about her. I have a new respect for what she went through. She crossed a lot of boundaries. She not only proved to the teacher that she could be successful in life. I am very proud of my mom getting past those boundaries.

I think this is fantastic, but I think it didn't hit as deep as it could've if the volume were higher.

You project is overall very nice but in some parts it's hard to hear your mother but I can still get an understanding what is your mother is trying to say.
