Dear Viewer,

Many people I know who go to predominately white schools have told me stories about the things their classmates say and do to them. One day I was having one of these conversations with a friend I came up with the idea of starting a blog where middle school, high school, and college kids could tell their stories. The purpose of this blog is to let people know that what we have gone through in these institutions is not an legend but a reoccurring ignored fact that profoundly affects our lives. This blog is not about people bashing or pointing fingers. The mission of this blog is simply to tell true firsthand accounts so that other people will be aware of this. Many people do not believe that the racial climate of a school affects an African American student's experience in their school. This blog will show that assumption to be unfounded, untrue, and fictional.
