I was scared out of my wits to go there. You can imagine all the stories that people talk about you know. Oh they're afraid of Black people, well I heard some stories too about lynchings you know and bottles thrown at civil rights workers and all kinds of things with bussing you know. I was truly frightened to go to the school with these white people but I gotta tell you within two weeks I'd been at that school I made lifelong friends. A couple of them I would say are just like family members. This is what I say about traveling and having experiences and breaking bread with people. All of the preconceived notions that we have about people they fade away because we learn that we have more in common with people who supposedly look different than you or act different than you, you'll realize, oh no, they all pretty much want the same thing. Do you know what that same thing is? Everyone is looking for love.
