Question. How many black people were living in stanford, connecticut in 1963. It was north stanford, so thats where it had more land. So it was our family. In 63 there may have been more, two or three in that section of town, but pretty much segregated ourselves in stanford, connecticut. What do you remember about that segregation. About being one of the few africanamericans. I remember in elementary school, children asking me if i bathed and you know, and me feeling very insecure, very shy, not didnt speak at all. I wouldnt ask questions, i wouldnt wear my glasses because i didnt want to be different in any other way and i didnt understand that that was part of my experience there, being the only black child in the fifth grade. So, until fifth grade i was the only black child in the school. Why did mom and dad want you to have that, want you to live there . I dont think they wanted us to have that level of isolation nor lack of, you know, overly they werent sitting us out there as an
Right there, thats the motel where doctor king was staying. The one up there by my finger mark. Right and my dad in patterson went down the next day bring money for the children who had been jailed during the marches. And they went to the site and also stated that motel so. Where it had beenbombed. Martin luther king, a ie friend of the family .

There was an expedited election. They are saying that this is a big failure. This all continues. It has been the first bite. One employee says he does not want this town to become detroit. Who is growing. Who is moving forward. Look at detroit. Look at city blocks of empty houses. What is the common denominator . The uaw. One possible other chapter this past election.
