275 | | 284.0341 | DC neighborhood | 284.8874 |
277 | | 285.5308 | because you don't know | 286.6153 |

366 | | 369.2157 | neither your mom or dad graduated from high school? | 371.1797 |
367 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 371.3325 | No. | 371.7912 |
368 | DCB_int_01 | 372.0088 | No? | 372.2649 |
370 | | 373.1453 | Um, are you going to college? | 374.6213 |
371 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 375.1500 | Uh, | 375.5753 |
373 | | 376.0384 | not as of right now but I hope to. | 378.1871 |
374 | DCB_int_01 | 378.5713 | And you wanna do IT? | 379.7398 |
375 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 379.8039 | Yeah I'm'a [do] IT. | 380.6523 |
376 | DCB_int_01 | 380.1720 | [A-] | 380.3041 |
377 | | 380.7763 | and then | 381.5207 |
379 | | 381.6124 | what do you wanna do specifically like | 383.5213 |
381 | | 383.9575 | there- cause that's a big field. | 385.0297 |
382 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 384.9980 | I know, I wanna do | 385.9073 |
383 | | 386.0422 | uh, the- | 386.5702 |
385 | | 386.8544 | some computers. | 387.8264 |
387 | | 388.1831 | It's like, I wanna work at- no, like I just wanna do everything. | 390.3881 |
388 | DCB_int_01 | 391.8806 | I mean computers is a good job, you're always gonna have a job. | 394.1977 |
390 | | 394.5054 | Like | 394.7627 |
392 | | 395.1457 | that's- technology is really [booming.] | 397.5057 |
393 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 397.1386 | [Yeah.] | 397.5228 |
394 | | 397.5949 | In the school I was doing- I was in the uh, | 399.5998 |
396 | | 399.8838 | computer science class so I learned how to do coding so | 402.7009 |
398 | | 403.3611 | that really got me interested in it. | 404.9904 |
399 | DCB_int_01 | 405.2899 | So, | 405.7141 |
401 | | 405.9462 | let me ask you a couple different questions | 407.5708 |
403 | | 407.7228 | kind of based on that. | 408.7233 |
405 | | 409.4432 | Thinking about- have you- so you haven't really lived anywhere else outside of Congress Heights | 413.8533 |
407 | | 413.9573 | but | 414.2775 |
409 | | 415.4177 | you've traveled to other neighborhoods | 417.0905 |
411 | | 417.3266 | and then you've gone to | 418.5912 |
413 | | 418.9912 | um- | 419.3554 |
415 | | 419.5832 | So tell me kind of what do you see that's different from | 421.9443 |
417 | | 422.2284 | where you live versus | 423.8852 |
419 | | 424.0812 | like some of the other | 425.0376 |
421 | | 425.1657 | neighborhoods, | 426.0741 |
423 | | 426.3619 | do you see a difference? Are you allowed to go into other [neighborhoods?] | 429.2993 |
424 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 429.1281 | [Oh] yeah. | 429.6644 |
425 | | 429.9755 | I'm allowed to go in other neighborhoods because my family's mostly | 433.2450 |
427 | | 433.6009 | spread out through DC, [so.] | 435.1856 |
428 | DCB_int_01 | 434.9615 | [Okay.] | 435.3737 |
429 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 436.0257 | Yeah. | 436.3499 |
431 | | 436.4499 | It's different but it's | 437.4779 |
433 | | 437.7345 | still the same, it's not- | 438.7270 |
435 | | 439.4313 | The environment different, | 440.3876 |
437 | | 440.5876 | the way it look is different but | 441.7281 |
439 | | 442.2323 | in general it's still the same. | 443.2208 |
441 | | 443.8249 | Like you still have to watch over your shoulder. | 445.6257 |
443 | | 445.9137 | The people you grew up with, you still gotta be careful who your friends is. | 448.9551 |
445 | | 449.3629 | Cause like, | 449.8109 |
447 | | 450.8436 | DC is a cycle | 451.9241 |
449 | | 452.0320 | and I don't think it's gonna break. | 453.2887 |
450 | DCB_int_01 | 454.2891 | What do you mean? | 454.9824 |
451 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 455.1453 | It's like, | 455.6347 |
453 | | 457.0862 | if you grew up with somebody | 458.1947 |
455 | | 458.6148 | and y'all get into it, | 459.5068 |
457 | | 460.2514 | or if you more successful than them, you have to watch out. | 462.8486 |
459 | | 463.3204 | Maybe they might try and rob you or they probably try to kill you, | 465.8576 |
461 | | 466.3258 | or stuff like that. | 467.0301 |
463 | | 467.1582 | Like, I don't think | 467.8862 |
465 | | 468.2824 | that cycle's gonna break. | 469.3589 |
467 | | 470.2233 | Cause I don't- | 470.6675 |
469 | | 470.8356 | everybody wants the same goal but nobody else trying to reach it. | 473.3485 |
470 | DCB_int_01 | 474.8092 | So do you see- | 475.8332 |
472 | | 477.7141 | I wanna talk about your high school in a minute, | 479.5181 |
474 | | 480.0112 | um, cause I've heard some interesting stories about /RD-SCHOOL-2/, | 482.1199 |
476 | | 482.6561 | but do you see- | 483.9087 |
478 | | 484.9375 | <ts> | 484.9971 |
480 | | 485.3372 | are turf wars like | 486.2616 |
482 | | 486.6218 | real? Do you see that [happening?] | 488.2903 |
483 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 487.8021 | [Mm.] Yeah. | 488.9701 |
484 | DCB_int_01 | 489.5269 | [Can you tell] me a little bit about it? | 490.6994 |
485 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 489.5989 | [It's-] | 489.8470 |
486 | | 491.1193 | well, | 491.5435 |
488 | | 491.8277 | it's a hood on hood situation. | 493.6103 |
490 | | 494.1687 | Like this neighborhood | 495.2771 |
492 | | 495.4612 | I guess Parkland is | 497.0218 |
494 | | 497.4940 | beefing with a hood that's r- literally right down the street. | 499.8991 |
496 | | 500.2070 | Twenty second | 500.9323 |
498 | | 501.0994 | is literally- | 501.8037 |
500 | | 502.4557 | only thing that separate 'em is the Boys and Girls Club | 504.3046 |
502 | | 504.4247 | and these row houses- town houses. | 506.0597 |
504 | | 506.9214 | Other than that | 507.5577 |
506 | | 507.9379 | it's basically | 508.8383 |
508 | | 508.9904 | nothing that separates them. | 510.0588 |
509 | DCB_int_01 | 511.2034 | And what- what happens? Like, | 512.5399 |
511 | | 512.8080 | you know. | 513.3146 |
512 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 513.3282 | It's either you- | 514.6488 |
514 | | 515.3930 | you get jumped, | 516.1294 |
516 | | 517.4859 | you get shot at | 518.1902 |
518 | | 518.3223 | or you get- | 518.7356 |
520 | | 518.8465 | you get robbed. | 519.7665 |
522 | | 521.0991 | It's just a lot of stuff can happen. | 522.8285 |
524 | | 523.7724 | Like I heard people got kidnapped. | 525.3343 |
526 | | 526.3108 | It just a lot. | 527.0214 |
527 | DCB_int_01 | 528.2196 | So how do people come like- | 529.6196 |
529 | | 530.0987 | and do we have kids here at this club from both neighborhoods? Or is it mostly one [neighborhood?] | 535.1409 |
530 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 534.6807 | [It's mostly] | 535.5010 |
531 | | 535.6170 | one, it's mostly one. | 536.5717 |
532 | DCB_int_01 | 536.8374 | Is it | 537.1016 |
534 | | 537.3897 | Parkland or Twenty second? | 538.3857 |
535 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 538.8182 | It's uh- some of it's majority Parkland but | 541.5315 |
537 | | 541.8753 | it's people from my neighborhood who comes down here. | 543.9163 |
539 | | 544.3123 | And my cousin | 545.1097 |
541 | | 545.2846 | she's from- | 546.3381 |
543 | | 547.1055 | /I mean/ she's don't really claim nothing | 548.8823 |
545 | | 549.2142 | but | 549.5543 |
547 | | 550.0226 | she's uh, Forestville she comes down here. | 551.9434 |
549 | | 552.4954 | It's like, | 553.0197 |
551 | | 553.0997 | a mixture. | 553.7610 |
553 | | 555.0366 | But | 555.2527 |
555 | | 555.9888 | But I say /live it/ like, | 556.9501 |
557 | | 557.3054 | going around South Forestville is different you can see it's | 559.4424 |
559 | | 559.6422 | different. | 560.0384 |
561 | | 560.9508 | Because | 561.5921 |
563 | | 562.0153 | it's nothing, it's a lot of things that separate | 563.9326 |
565 | | 564.6921 | neighborhoods. | 565.3694 |
567 | | 565.7486 | /Like/ I don't live out there | 566.4729 |
569 | | 566.5530 | personally I don't know what happens but | 567.8246 |
571 | | 568.2618 | when I go out there it's like you feel more safe. | 570.1737 |
572 | DCB_int_01 | 572.1153 | [Mm.] | 572.6235 |
573 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 572.3834 | [Other] than | 573.1395 |
574 | | 574.0359 | getting dropped off at your house or- | 576.2969 |
576 | | 576.6451 | or your neighborhood wondering like, | 577.8216 |
578 | | 578.4376 | what's gonna happen if I get out the car. | 579.9503 |
580 | | 580.5550 | Like- | 580.7722 |
582 | | 581.0468 | s- stuff like that. | 581.7829 |
583 | DCB_int_01 | 582.4952 | And do you see that often like people are just in fear? | 585.0484 |
584 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 585.6084 | Yeah. | 586.0326 |
586 | | 586.8930 | When you in fear | 587.9455 |
588 | | 588.0495 | or when you scared you do | 589.0820 |
590 | | 589.5699 | things that you usually wouldn't do. | 590.9059 |
592 | | 592.2392 | Like, | 592.5659 |
594 | | 593.1315 | I saw people who got bullied all they life and now | 595.9368 |
596 | | 596.4887 | they carry guns | 597.3651 |
598 | | 597.5252 | just- | 598.0495 |
600 | | 598.7698 | /?/ | 599.1285 |
602 | | 599.2340 | they're just being scared. | 600.1273 |
603 | DCB_int_01 | 601.0466 | Wow. | 601.3119 |
605 | | 602.2071 | And so- okay. | 603.2439 |
607 | | 603.9875 | Wait a minute. | 604.3637 |
609 | | 604.5838 | Let me back up. | 605.2001 |
611 | | 606.4486 | So do you feel like it was a time personally like, /RD-NAME-2/ you were like, oh my God I'm gonna die, | 610.8986 |
613 | | 611.1145 | like, something's gonna happen to me right now? | 612.7433 |
614 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 613.0714 | Yeah. | 613.4208 |
615 | DCB_int_01 | 613.8314 | When? Can you tell me about it? | 615.0447 |
616 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 615.2800 | I say | 616.2365 |
618 | | 617.5291 | beginning of the summertime. | 618.5536 |
619 | DCB_int_01 | 618.8734 | [What happened?] | 619.4241 |
620 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 619.0095 | [This summer.] | 619.4937 |
621 | | 620.4942 | Seeing people just | 621.4386 |
623 | | 621.9348 | /I say/ | 622.3388 |
625 | | 622.4871 | drop like flies like | 623.6957 |
627 | | 624.5998 | just dying left and right. | 625.9564 |
629 | | 627.2968 | Or | 627.6728 |
631 | | 627.9891 | I think, oh what if I get locked up for being | 630.1456 |
633 | | 630.2940 | in the wrong place at the wrong time or hanging with the wrong people. | 632.7380 |
635 | | 633.8354 | That's why I really come down here to get away from everything. | 636.4575 |
637 | | 637.2168 | /That's like/ I got people down here I can talk to. | 639.0301 |
639 | | 639.9419 | That's really what my | 640.7702 |
641 | | 640.9182 | program is around like, | 642.2627 |
643 | | 643.2032 | if you don't | 643.6738 |
645 | | 644.2033 | feel safe at home or if you have something going on at home that you really don't wanna talk about | 648.1127 |
647 | | 649.1374 | then you have someone to talk to. | 650.2720 |
649 | | 652.1506 | Yeah. | 652.4453 |
650 | DCB_int_01 | 653.4231 | How did you- so how did you end- how did you start coming here? How did you start coming to the Boys and Girls Club? | 657.9377 |
651 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 658.1129 | Well, | 658.5756 |
653 | | 659.1854 | I had had AAU practice down here. | 661.1948 |
655 | | 661.9743 | I used to told- I used to tell /RD-NAME-4/ I'm'a come down here, I'm'a come down here and stay. | 665.2090 |
657 | | 665.9119 | So one day he locked me out the gym | 667.7159 |
659 | | 668.6366 | and he made me call my mom and signed me up | 670.7455 |
661 | | 671.1219 | for me to come down here. | 672.3752 |
663 | | 672.5985 | And | 672.9707 |
665 | | 673.3109 | ever since that day I been coming down here. | 674.7956 |
666 | DCB_int_01 | 674.8116 | And [when was that?] | 675.5849 |
667 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 675.0797 | [Non stop.] | 675.5917 |
668 | | 676.0919 | Say like three years ago. | 677.1947 |
669 | DCB_int_01 | 677.5806 | So you've been- okay, so you've been coming down here for that long. | 679.4693 |
670 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 679.6614 | Mm-hm. | 679.9575 |
671 | DCB_int_01 | 679.9335 | And | 680.5578 |
672 | | 680.8019 | what do you feel like | 681.9505 |
674 | | 683.2546 | has been- | 684.2831 |
676 | | 685.0875 | so you've had lots of experiences | 686.7082 |
678 | | 686.7880 | in those three years, what do you think has been like the most influential or like the best experience you've had? | 692.0133 |
679 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 692.7865 | Uh, my senior year | 693.6109 |
681 | | 693.8790 | cause I had a lot | 694.6594 |
683 | | 695.3277 | like- | 695.6158 |
685 | | 696.3240 | I had a lot more opportunities | 697.7206 |
687 | | 697.8326 | like | 698.1246 |
689 | | 699.0570 | the three years has been a way | 700.5697 |
691 | | 700.6617 | different change | 701.5221 |
693 | | 702.3622 | with me. | 702.7744 |
695 | | 704.2431 | Uh, the first year I was really- | 705.7878 |
697 | | 706.5077 | in basketball like I was kind of hanging outside later than what I usually do. | 709.8597 |
699 | | 711.1056 | Uh, | 711.5896 |
701 | | 713.0185 | my second year me coming down here | 714.6478 |
703 | | 715.3994 | uh, my grades started getting better. | 716.7834 |
704 | DCB_int_01 | 717.3042 | Mm. | 717.5123 |
705 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 718.1326 | My third year, like my grades got better, | 719.9726 |
707 | | 720.1212 | /I went in/ | 720.6452 |
709 | | 720.8695 | more opportunities | 721.8775 |
711 | | 722.9264 | like | 723.1465 |
713 | | 723.4625 | my mindset changed | 724.9785 |
715 | | 725.2433 | as- when I hit eighteen | 726.4033 |
717 | | 726.9201 | as of when I was | 728.2647 |
719 | | 729.0888 | younger. Fourteen, f- | 730.4454 |
721 | | 730.6175 | bef- between fourteen and eighteen, I'm | 732.5621 |
723 | | 732.6863 | a totally different person. | 733.7028 |
724 | DCB_int_01 | 734.1627 | What do you think changed it? | 735.2227 |
725 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 736.0356 | I say | 736.5436 |

1203 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 1171.0141 | Uh, my favorite subject | 1172.1946 |
1205 | | 1172.2947 | is history. | 1173.3807 |
1206 | DCB_int_01 | 1173.5431 | Hi- why? | 1174.1874 |
1207 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 1174.7874 | I don't know it like- | 1175.7278 |
1209 | | 1176.2001 | I like hearing the history about | 1177.7614 |
1211 | | 1177.8645 | how far DC came and just how the world change. | 1180.4658 |
1212 | DCB_int_01 | 1180.6738 | So what do you think- okay that's interesting that you talk about how | 1183.2270 |
1214 | | 1183.4869 | like DC- | 1184.3153 |
1216 | | 1184.7635 | um, | 1185.2701 |

1220 | DCB_int_01 | 1189.0852 | That you thought was interesting. | 1190.0656 |
1221 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 1190.6819 | well, | 1191.3459 |
1223 | | 1192.5504 | it's just like how DC changed over time. | 1194.7034 |
1225 | | 1196.0597 | From | 1196.6237 |
1227 | | 1197.3203 | being dirt roads to this | 1198.8250 |
1229 | | 1200.2775 | gravel now and it just how | 1202.4465 |
1231 | | 1202.6065 | it changed from | 1203.3148 |
1233 | | 1203.8148 | riding horses and carriages to | 1205.8957 |
1235 | | 1206.2719 | cars like, | 1207.1123 |
1237 | | 1207.8886 | and how the houses was. | 1209.1046 |
1239 | | 1209.6290 | How the first landlines was connected. | 1211.8628 |
1241 | | 1212.9224 | It just- | 1213.4467 |
1243 | | 1214.0069 | it's different cause you | 1214.8670 |
1245 | | 1216.2157 | like- | 1216.5118 |
1247 | | 1217.0560 | like if you tell me a story | 1217.9645 |
1249 | | 1218.1125 | I can imagine it like I can see it. | 1219.9334 |
1250 | DCB_int_01 | 1219.9412 | Mm. | 1220.3266 |
1251 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 1220.7016 | But now if I look out there now like, | 1222.1543 |
1253 | | 1222.6262 | it's different. | 1223.1945 |
1255 | | 1224.2990 | So that's why I like reading about | 1225.5756 |
1257 | | 1226.4517 | history. | 1226.8999 |
1258 | DCB_int_01 | 1228.1323 | Do you feel | 1229.0728 |
1260 | | 1229.3809 | a certain pride about DC like, | 1231.3618 |
1262 | | 1231.5058 | this is my city? | 1232.6103 |
1263 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 1234.5870 | Uh, | 1235.1590 |
1265 | | 1236.6717 | I would say | 1237.4041 |
1267 | | 1238.0964 | no. | 1238.6486 |
1268 | DCB_int_01 | 1239.3768 | Why not? | 1239.7329 |
1269 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 1240.2771 | Cause like, | 1240.9134 |
1271 | | 1241.1415 | if you come to DC | 1242.2722 |
1273 | | 1243.0903 | like from a different place you're like, oh DC is like where the Governor's at and all that, | 1246.7120 |
1275 | | 1246.8958 | President. | 1247.3104 |

1279 | | 1250.7013 | like, | 1250.9294 |
1281 | | 1251.2935 | go around the neighborhoods, I'm not just- not talking about | 1253.3582 |

1332 | | 1306.2791 | He h- he saw a lot what I face | 1308.2040 |
1334 | | 1308.9602 | in three days. | 1309.6162 |
1336 | | 1310.9250 | So | 1311.3290 |
1337 | DCB_int_01 | 1311.5773 | [And that's what you] deal with everyday. | 1312.8657 |
1338 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 1311.6572 | [yeah.] | 1312.0613 |
1339 | | 1313.2938 | Yes. | 1313.7300 |
1340 | DCB_int_01 | 1315.2145 | So how do you stay positive? How do you stay strong in that because that seems really | 1319.2523 |
1342 | | 1320.1727 | hard. | 1320.8890 |
1344 | | 1321.0248 | Like, it's hard to see like your friends getting killed or | 1323.7058 |
1346 | | 1323.8218 | drugs or [whatever you] see | 1325.4066 |
1347 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 1324.4541 | [Yeah.] | 1325.0064 |

1357 | | 1337.1592 | Like, | 1337.4393 |
1359 | | 1337.8875 | even if I w- | 1338.3757 |
1361 | | 1338.8279 | thought about doing something stupid | 1339.9645 |
1363 | | 1340.8327 | he'd put his foot in my throat real quick. | 1342.4052 |
1365 | | 1342.8734 | Like- | 1343.1814 |
1366 | DCB_int_01 | 1345.0222 | Why do you respect him so much? | 1346.5209 |
1367 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 1346.8468 | Because- | 1347.5081 |
1369 | | 1349.6561 | I'll say I respect him a lot because it just | 1351.9492 |
1371 | | 1352.7853 | whatever you go through he won't- | 1354.1493 |
1373 | | 1355.5863 | he won't down talk you. | 1356.6468 |
1374 | DCB_int_01 | 1357.1070 | Mm-hm. | 1357.5952 |
1375 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 1358.2996 | Like, | 1358.6197 |
1377 | | 1360.0720 | say if | 1361.1586 |
1379 | | 1362.0049 | I just | 1362.5289 |
1381 | | 1362.6732 | came from j- fighting. | 1363.9975 |
1383 | | 1364.7018 | Come down here | 1365.3658 |
1385 | | 1365.6583 | if I tell him, | 1366.2705 |
1387 | | 1367.5511 | he would be like- he will talk you, he would- he won't | 1369.7080 |
1389 | | 1370.1602 | yell at you but he'll talk to you about it like he | 1372.1971 |
1391 | | 1373.1134 | will | 1373.5188 |
1393 | | 1374.4018 | show you that it's not | 1375.1591 |
1395 | | 1375.8624 | f- good to fight but if it comes down to it | 1378.0513 |
1397 | | 1378.4595 | if you had to protect yourself it's different but now, | 1380.6797 |
1399 | | 1381.6204 | like I got in a altercation a couple days ago, | 1383.8964 |
1401 | | 1385.3341 | and he was like, that's not- | 1386.3906 |
1403 | | 1386.7146 | cause | 1387.0173 |
1405 | | 1387.1708 | people don't fight with their hands no more. | 1388.4322 |
1407 | | 1389.6877 | Like, | 1389.9038 |
1409 | | 1390.0439 | people | 1390.5212 |
1411 | | 1390.7000 | d- either you gonna get shot or you gonna get stabbed. | 1392.5534 |
1413 | | 1394.3936 | Like | 1394.6778 |
1415 | | 1395.2420 | that's why I respect him and it's that | 1396.6467 |
1417 | | 1397.5668 | don't matter | 1398.1668 |
1419 | | 1399.6118 | what you been through | 1400.3480 |
1421 | | 1400.5280 | you can feel at home. | 1401.7766 |
1423 | | 1402.4006 | And | 1402.8086 |
1425 | | 1404.1334 | I would say | 1404.6974 |
1427 | | 1405.7062 | you might not /think of him/ like, oh, | 1407.2026 |
1429 | | 1408.0310 | I can't talk to /RD-NAME-4/ cause he gonna go tell somebody about it. | 1410.5681 |
1431 | | 1411.0082 | But it's not that. | 1411.7605 |
1433 | | 1412.2328 | What you tell him is confidential. | 1413.5692 |
1435 | | 1414.5135 | Like that's why I respect him because it's a lot of people | 1416.5985 |
1437 | | 1417.3946 | who need | 1417.9949 |
1439 | | 1418.1467 | people like that | 1418.8070 |
1441 | | 1418.9510 | in- in a world and it's | 1420.1750 |
1443 | | 1421.8324 | not a lot of people you can do that to- | 1423.3448 |
1445 | | 1424.1412 | you can't talk to. | 1424.8465 |
1447 | | 1426.1141 | Like I can talk to my little cousin too. | 1427.6105 |
1449 | | 1428.7030 | Like at first I didn't even know that was my cousin when I first came down here. | 1431.0041 |
1451 | | 1432.6964 | But now I can talk to her | 1433.8012 |
1453 | | 1434.4012 | even though she my little cousin | 1435.5452 |
1455 | | 1436.4582 | she been through more I'll say educational experience than I have been. | 1439.8916 |
1457 | | 1440.6237 | So it's- I can talk to her about | 1442.1444 |
1459 | | 1443.4687 | the streets and what not to do and she can talk to me about school and what to do. | 1447.3022 |
1460 | DCB_int_01 | 1447.8905 | [Right.] | 1448.2625 |
1461 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 1448.1106 | [So] yeah. | 1448.7066 |

1463 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 1450.3636 | [Yeah.] | 1450.8759 |
1464 | DCB_int_01 | 1452.0483 | What do you feel like is a piece of advice you gave her like kind of | 1454.7216 |
1466 | | 1455.3574 | um, | 1456.0747 |
1468 | | 1456.8261 | to protect yourself like, | 1458.1387 |
1470 | | 1458.6269 | cause it's- it's real. | 1459.6514 |
1471 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 1459.7952 | Yeah. | 1460.2298 |
1473 | | 1460.3234 | Sh- | 1460.6436 |

1477 | | 1465.1975 | And | 1465.6297 |
1479 | | 1465.7854 | I know how our family is like, | 1467.5502 |
1481 | | 1468.7468 | her sister came down here ready to fight, her mom did, it's just not- | 1471.7161 |
1483 | | 1473.5247 | And we had to- /RD-NAME-4/ | 1475.0172 |
1485 | | 1475.1093 | and myself had to calm them down and tell 'em, | 1477.2143 |
1487 | | 1478.0143 | after they calmed me down first, | 1479.5711 |
1489 | | 1479.6791 | well, | 1480.0511 |

1495 | | 1481.8840 | it's not- | 1482.2720 |
1497 | | 1482.6362 | It's gonna be another problem. | 1483.6482 |
1499 | | 1484.5491 | Cause they know how she look | 1485.4974 |
1501 | | 1485.6255 | and if y'all go around there | 1486.7940 |
1503 | | 1486.9060 | with her | 1487.4140 |
1505 | | 1487.8902 | it's gonna be a different thing. | 1488.9849 |
1507 | | 1490.6394 | But | 1490.8835 |
1509 | | 1490.9875 | now I just tell her protect herself at all times, don't- | 1493.4767 |
1511 | | 1494.5849 | like, | 1494.8690 |
1513 | | 1495.7454 | if you see a group of people coming or you see | 1498.6066 |

2074 | | 2062.8077 | Twenty first, [that's where he's at] | 2064.0077 |
2075 | DCB_int_01 | 2063.4320 | [Okay that's-] | 2064.0094 |
2076 | | 2064.1484 | Oh [that's the Northeast] okay okay. | 2065.4930 |
2077 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 2064.4525 | [Yeah.] | 2064.7538 |
2078 | | 2065.5207 | So | 2066.0607 |
2080 | | 2066.4051 | a- a whole building | 2067.4838 |
2082 | | 2068.2298 | went out of power | 2068.9072 |
2084 | | 2069.1222 | I mean not- | 2069.5785 |
2086 | | 2069.6665 | the water | 2070.2588 |
2088 | | 2070.3708 | main, | 2070.7430 |
2090 | | 2070.8428 | /like the/ water pipes were messed up. | 2072.1361 |
2091 | DCB_int_01 | 2072.2354 | Mm-hm. | 2072.5954 |
2092 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 2072.9117 | And they had to shut the building down | 2073.9562 |
2094 | | 2074.0963 | and move 'em. | 2074.6589 |
2096 | | 2075.2365 | And people was coming | 2076.2530 |
2098 | | 2076.6892 | like, | 2076.8973 |
2100 | | 2077.4495 | even though there's nobody there there's chains on the door | 2079.6399 |
2102 | | 2080.7589 | and locks. | 2081.2443 |
2104 | | 2081.6030 | They was breaking the locks | 2082.7644 |
2106 | | 2083.0437 | and going in people house | 2084.1922 |
2108 | | 2084.5601 | taking things. | 2085.2445 |
2109 | DCB_int_01 | 2087.7536 | So now think about how the city- I don't know if you're- | 2090.0024 |
2111 | | 2090.1024 | like if you | 2091.0309 |
2113 | | 2091.3790 | notice or if you see how the city is changing cause you're | 2094.4282 |
2115 | | 2094.5082 | still fairly [young], | 2095.6389 |
2116 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 2095.3046 | [Mm.] | 2095.6486 |
2117 | DCB_int_01 | 2096.0209 | um, but this used to be Chocolate City. | 2097.6181 |
2118 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 2097.9582 | [Yeah.] | 2098.2984 |
2119 | DCB_int_01 | 2098.0175 | [And now] like if you get out of ward seven and eight | 2100.4114 |
2120 | | 2101.0387 | [it's very different.] | 2102.0760 |
2121 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 2101.1627 | [It's different.] | 2102.0831 |
2122 | | 2102.2112 | Like | 2102.4233 |
2124 | | 2102.6794 | Eighth Street over on the Northeast side is way different. | 2105.4927 |
2126 | | 2105.8606 | in the daytime you see | 2107.2930 |
2128 | | 2107.8493 | crackheads, you see people hustling. | 2109.5959 |
2130 | | 2110.5025 | Then at night it's | 2111.5145 |
2132 | | 2112.1670 | I say all vanilla like it's no really black people. | 2115.4805 |
2134 | | 2117.1128 | Like | 2117.4729 |
2136 | | 2117.7531 | and it's only- | 2118.2894 |
2138 | | 2119.1218 | like, only person I see black people | 2120.7524 |
2140 | | 2120.8783 | it's /when/ they stand there in front of Popeyes and those are crackheads or | 2123.7516 |
2142 | | 2124.1238 | homeless people asking for food. | 2125.2851 |
2144 | | 2126.0444 | That's the only time. | 2126.8191 |
2145 | DCB_int_01 | 2128.6776 | And why do you think that is the case? Or do you see that anywhere else? | 2131.9829 |
2146 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 2132.5632 | Uh, | 2133.1605 |
2147 | DCB_int_01 | 2133.5153 | Like- | 2133.8035 |
2148 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 2134.0156 | I don't really go | 2135.0280 |
2150 | | 2135.1321 | all like | 2135.6403 |
2152 | | 2136.0685 | /around/ but | 2136.9209 |
2154 | | 2137.8053 | now I don't | 2138.6666 |
2156 | | 2138.9095 | but- | 2139.1977 |
2158 | | 2141.0505 | I would say it's like that on Eighth Street because | 2142.7492 |
2160 | | 2143.4714 | I'll say- | 2143.9236 |
2162 | | 2145.6764 | but I'm not gonna s- speak every black person but | 2147.7891 |
2164 | | 2148.2973 | as me | 2149.0257 |
2166 | | 2150.1859 | I'll say | 2150.7742 |
2168 | | 2151.2104 | as my range- | 2152.1949 |
2170 | | 2152.2869 | or my age range what I see | 2153.3514 |
2172 | | 2153.9917 | is | 2154.3356 |
2174 | | 2154.9599 | black kids fear white people. | 2156.7447 |
2176 | | 2159.0455 | I would say from my opinion that's what we feel. | 2161.0415 |
2178 | | 2161.4705 | Because on Eighth Street like you can see a lot of teens | 2163.9796 |
2180 | | 2165.0398 | then when that's like | 2166.0185 |
2182 | | 2166.2524 | time it get dark, | 2167.1208 |
2184 | | 2167.5367 | you gonna be around your neighborhood, | 2168.7973 |
2186 | | 2169.6897 | be at a party somewhere, | 2170.8302 |
2188 | | 2173.2031 | Yeah that's the only two. | 2174.2084 |
2190 | | 2174.5837 | You not gonna be | 2175.1237 |
2192 | | 2175.2840 | roaming the streets. | 2176.1164 |
2193 | DCB_int_01 | 2177.9969 | Do you feel like- | 2178.7649 |
2195 | | 2179.2134 | you said | 2179.7217 |
2197 | | 2180.1739 | black people fear white teens? Or do [black teens] feel- | 2183.1189 |
2198 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 2182.2706 | [No like-] | 2182.7988 |
2199 | | 2183.2750 | black teens fear | 2184.4276 |
2201 | | 2184.6076 | white | 2184.8916 |
2203 | | 2185.2239 | adults. | 2185.7442 |
2204 | DCB_int_01 | 2186.7644 | Do you feel like a lot of that's | 2187.8729 |
2206 | | 2188.0850 | because of what's happening in the new- with [all the police] and stuff? | 2190.6099 |
2207 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 2189.6294 | [Mm-hm.] | 2190.1067 |
2208 | | 2190.8220 | It's like | 2191.2353 |
2210 | | 2191.4062 | a lot of things happening. | 2192.5785 |
2212 | | 2193.8031 | So they be like, | 2194.7004 |
2214 | | 2195.2197 | oh I'm not trying to be in that predicament. | 2196.7604 |
2216 | | 2198.3009 | Or | 2198.7275 |
2218 | | 2200.5256 | it be like, if it's a group of black kids walking dow- like I'll give example, if a group of black kids walking down Eighth Street | 2205.8557 |
2220 | | 2206.4639 | it's all white people. | 2207.3026 |
2222 | | 2207.9847 | They gonna be like- | 2208.4929 |
2224 | | 2209.3453 | they gonna feel | 2210.0706 |
2226 | | 2210.6816 | like | 2210.9618 |
2228 | | 2211.2219 | this not even they city no more. | 2212.4384 |
2230 | | 2212.8866 | They gonna feel like | 2213.5029 |
2232 | | 2214.1312 | new. | 2214.6299 |
2234 | | 2215.9154 | There's gonna- | 2216.3796 |
2236 | | 2216.7118 | the way their environment is is gonna make 'em wanna do something stupid like, | 2219.8013 |
2238 | | 2221.6742 | Oh let's rob him | 2222.6826 |
2240 | | 2223.2386 | because he got the new iPhone. | 2224.4986 |
2242 | | 2225.6637 | Like that's how it is, like | 2226.7962 |
2244 | | 2228.3927 | that's why | 2229.1340 |
2246 | | 2229.4652 | I say | 2229.9974 |
2248 | | 2231.3138 | black kid- | 2232.0901 |
2250 | | 2232.2302 | black teens fear white people. | 2233.8830 |

2256 | | 2239.0449 | they're more successful s- than them. | 2240.4133 |

2568 | DCB_int_01 | 2547.6818 | How'd you learn to play chess? | 2548.7912 |
2569 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 2549.9146 | A old mentor | 2550.7826 |
2570 | DCB_int_01 | 2552.7276 | [He just was want-] he- w- | 2553.9442 |
2571 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 2552.7279 | [taught me how.] | 2553.3346 |
2572 | DCB_int_01 | 2554.0762 | took the chess board out saying, we gonna play chess? | 2556.0092 |
2573 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 2556.4333 | No like we was playing in his class, | 2558.6704 |
2575 | | 2559.2544 | he was like, that's not how you play. | 2560.5783 |
2577 | | 2561.7392 | He was teaching us- the whole class like, this is a pawn | 2564.7206 |
2579 | | 2565.2288 | this is a king, queen, knight, | 2567.0097 |
2581 | | 2567.5737 | rook, | 2567.8656 |
2583 | | 2568.6942 | and just showing like, he used it as- | 2570.3048 |
2585 | | 2571.7313 | of power. | 2572.4076 |
2587 | | 2573.1397 | It was like, us black people are pawns. | 2574.8485 |
2589 | | 2576.2531 | And it's like | 2576.7211 |
2591 | | 2576.9051 | every step we take | 2578.0259 |
2593 | | 2578.5703 | you have to worry about something | 2579.6393 |
2595 | | 2579.7304 | getting taken away. | 2580.6068 |
2597 | | 2582.1713 | And he used the rook as- | 2583.3518 |
2599 | | 2583.6880 | the rook | 2584.0600 |
2601 | | 2584.7522 | either you can move forward in life | 2586.0775 |
2603 | | 2586.1769 | or you can move back. | 2586.9452 |
2605 | | 2588.7140 | It was like and the- | 2589.2340 |
2607 | | 2589.3261 | the king and queen, | 2590.3247 |
2609 | | 2590.7227 | it's like a queen | 2591.5191 |
2611 | | 2591.8552 | is basically | 2592.7196 |
2613 | | 2594.7538 | your own. | 2595.3191 |
2615 | | 2595.5647 | You can move anywhere you want to. | 2596.9290 |
2617 | | 2598.1216 | It was like, | 2598.5403 |
2619 | | 2598.9780 | a lot of people trying to- | 2599.9953 |
2621 | | 2600.6467 | a lot of people think that they're kings and queens but they're really pawns. | 2603.5998 |
2623 | | 2605.2683 | And that's it that what they use it as. | 2606.6810 |
2625 | | 2606.7810 | And he showed me he's like, | 2607.7544 |
2627 | | 2608.4258 | oh, | 2608.7111 |
2629 | | 2608.9778 | like that's what I need to reach. | 2610.2063 |
2631 | | 2611.4029 | I need to reach the highest level before I can move any type of way. | 2613.9626 |
2632 | DCB_int_01 | 2618.3615 | That's really interesting, I don't think I've heard it quite like that before. | 2621.9512 |
2634 | | 2622.5432 | Um, | 2623.2953 |
2636 | | 2624.3238 | what else do you do? | 2625.0091 |

2639 | | 2628.5374 | That's [basically it.] | 2629.4739 |
2640 | DCB_int_01 | 2629.0777 | [That's pretty much it?] | 2629.9301 |
2641 | DCB_se1_ag1_m_01 | 2629.5739 | [Yeah.] | 2630.0821 |
2642 | DCB_int_01 | 2630.6064 | Um, | 2631.1906 |
