Yes. So I don't remember. Well, I suppose, Lisa, I'm pretty sure I heard in the movies or TV, but I didn't understand the full meaning of it until I moved with my father. This was during high school. He grew up in Alabama in, like, the forties and fifties. He was born there in 1940 and he experienced a lot of racism with white folks, a lot of [Unrecognized], this [Unrecognized] dead, I'll kill you all kind of crazy stuff. And so that's why he moved to Los Angeles. And there when I was in high school, he taught me the difference. Like, you know, don't nobody ever call you [Unrecognized], [Unrecognized] as well. White folks used to keep us down. So it's a terrible term, you know? But [Unrecognized] cool it. That's black folks. We were invented it. That's our word that we use. So I learned it that way. But the first time I was called [Unrecognized] was in. I went to UC Berkeley for college and I was in a Jack in A Bug's Life. And this white man was trying to cut in front of us in order to like in the drive thru line. And so me and my friends weren't having them. So we still when our ways and get in line and he threw a lemonade cup at the back of the car. And so we waited until we got to the window to get our food and I got a water cup, threw it at his windshield. We sped off and then the man sped off with us. He was chasing us for a good 5 minutes and then he put it to the side of us. He wrote on his window. He was like, I got nooses with their names on a [Unrecognized]. And it was extremely frightening for me. I remember we were just screaming like the whole right one because I was literally chasing us. So that was scary enough. But to have like the weapons a [Unrecognized] news like, especially in more detail, like being in college and actually learning about my history more than with like, like it was these schools teach it was I was already like a very angry person. Just I would look at a white person and hate them. Sadly, that was how my my life was. But I feel sorry. He was literally staring at me. But yeah, so it was very frightening. I remember we were we were driving by. We knew that there was a there was we saw a police car. We were like, we should pull over and let this car know that. Let the police officer know that someone's chasing us. But we're like, No, we're black. He won't believe us. Like, And so we kept driving. And I was even said to my room, I tried to call my mom and she didn't answer and either to voicemail, like, I'm being chased by this. White men call this [Unrecognized] like, if something happens, I want you to know also, is it like a very real scary feeling to leave in a pool on the side of the street? And he drove off. But then the second time other coordinator was in Tennessee. I was walking down the street actually for Freedom School training. And this truck driver, he pulled out the road as one was like [Unrecognized]. And then I drove off. But I was this time I've been a cocoa for years. I was locals like, you know, fuck him. He's like, We coward going to say anything. But yeah, that was and even Berkeley, it kind of hit me that, you know, racism so very is real like I thought of more like it not was the term. Like. I didn't think at this time with so much overt racism, like, well, we had the prison system. People can't vote. People are segregated communities, resources are handed that I knew, but I never knew that people literally, like, still feel comfortable enough to say those things to folks. But yes, I was. Yeah.

Think this is 2011. It was in Berkeley, California. All Telegraph, Road, Telegraph and Alcatraz. I remember this. I think this is near those streets and it was probably like 10:30 p.m. It was like labor study is like was my friend had a car was go to Jack in the box and it was extremely long lines. It's like people trying to get in but no one ever cut within hours of the moment because like I said, I, I was still like new to African American studies type of things. He just started really shooting at me. But I do remember, like, just even before that moment, like I would go into stores, I'll see somebody, y'know, be pissed off because all I'm thinking about is everything that I've learned. So to have that moment happened, it was more of a wakeup call. Also, it kind of it it made me more angry. It made me think that I need to control how I handle situations because I don't know what the outcome would be. And I think I said it. I was a double major after my two cities. Like I need to learn more. It was it was very it was a rude awakening. Even though in Berkeley I had the situations like people will let us into parties, they say it's packed with white people going right after us. Or I had a bunch of us try to go to a party and this guy had like I like he was he had waterholes. He was like, y'all can come in this party and like, was spraying the waterholes from I don't know how he had water bottles upstairs, but was like bringing them downstairs like on his grass. Doesn't he let you put a white rose on us like it's the forties and fifties. He was like, No wonder my girls can come here. Like we've had a dummy. He was like, Brown. He was being hanging from a noose across from the African-American theme program in Berkeley. So I was like, of course, really scary situation. And I was like, This is terrible. But I was with a group of people, but to be like in an isolated car and then just to have someone like, like, say, news and call you a [Unrecognized], which is in chases for at least 20 minutes, I was like, Oh, this is real. Like my life in over some B.S. kind of thing. And I realized it wasn't just that we threw water at him because it was like you had to put race in it and say, noose. So you're very intentional about how you're speaking to three black folks in the car. You see what what is the noose is what white folks use in like the South to hang like blankets on trees. So it's a special way that you tired and it's called the noose. Wow. Yeah. So he's saying it was like extremely like just white race supremacy. All that shit was like flushing at the moment. Wow. Yeah, but that was that was my experience.","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://archive.empathyarchive.com/collections/1733/collection_resources/56764/file/130925#t=250.44,426.98"},{"id":"https://archive.empathyarchive.com/collections/1733/collection_resources/56764/file/130925/transcript/49449/annotation/5","type":"Annotation","motivation":"transcribing","body":{"type":"TextualBody","value":"\u003cstrong\u003eSpeaker 1:\u003c/strong\u003e And you talk a little bit about your dad telling you, like, the difference between.","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://archive.empathyarchive.com/collections/1733/collection_resources/56764/file/130925#t=427.94,433.04"},{"id":"https://archive.empathyarchive.com/collections/1733/collection_resources/56764/file/130925/transcript/49449/annotation/6","type":"Annotation","motivation":"transcribing","body":{"type":"TextualBody","value":"\u003cstrong\u003eSpeaker 2:\u003c/strong\u003e The two words.

But I knew because, like, if we watched a game show, you only go for the black family. If a black family didn't win, he was like, Is the white man. He's the devil. He would tell me all the time, like, you don't allow white people to talk to them a certain way. And I was ignorant because I grew up in South Central. So when I wasn't around any white folks and I went to all black schools and so I don't think I ever had really any interaction with white folks. So I didn't see them in a negative way. I was like, Why are you still race is like he even he got mad at me for voting for a white girl for American Idol the first season. Kelly Clarkson. He was pissed. You know, I need to vote for the half black guy. And then once I got older, he felt more comfortable sharing, like, his stories of being beat up by white people or like being chased by white folks of being called [Unrecognized] and not getting jobs and all this stuff. No one, he had to go to L.A. to actually get work. And so. So that was it. Yeah. So that like, changed my whole perspective of my father.
