三兄弟，黑人男性，一个被谋杀，一个被监禁，一个毫发无损（我）。三个堂兄弟，黑人男性，两个被监禁，一个自由完整（我）。我有六个兄弟姐妹，只有两个完成了高中学业，其中一个就是我。我记得，当我4岁的时候，和我姐姐一起去商店，因为拿起一个有人用来注射海洛因的皮下注射针头而被责骂.这是红线的遗产，加上大规模监禁。如果你不知道什么是红线，看看它。据称，红线在1968年结束;然而，它仍然是许多美国黑人与生俱来的权利。我早年的生活经历就是这种遗产的产物。
Three brothers, black males, one murdered, one incarcerated—one unscathed (me). Three cousins, black males, two incarcerated—one with his liberties intact (me). Six siblings, only two completed high school—one being me. I remember, when I was 4 years old, walking to the store with my sister and being scolded for picking up a hypodermic needle someone used to inject heroin… and we lived in the better part of my neighborhood. This is the legacy of redlining, compounded by mass incarceration. If you do not know what redlining is, look it up. Purportedly, redlining ended in 1968; however, it is still the birthright of many black Americans. My early life experience is the product of this legacy.
