“- the ritual cleansing marking the official ending to the party, but not the movement.”

“Scratching and mixing, his hands created syncopated rhythms that hit our ears like musical bombs.”

“There is a mother who sits high in the seats of the stadium rocking her baby back & forth, her voice cocooning the child in a shell of song. Before desperation descended under the rounded roof.”
I picked this quote because it shows that there were actually people in those houses that died when they did nothing wrong. Making it even more enraging that the press just looked at them like they had nothing to live for, like they were nothing.

I choose this quote because it didn't show the damage of the fire it showed what the fire fixed, and how many people would be free from that day on. The story did not only show the fire on the outside it showed the fire within them, that gave them the courage to hope for a day were they had freedom, which they fought for in the end.

gave them a more callous name. There were people inside though
there were some who only saw a parade of disembodied shadows. "

"The schoolyard was so packed with hot, sweaty black and brown bodies that I had to scale the chain-link fence just to get a glimpse of the D.J. spinning the vinyl and the silky-smooth M.C. straining to punch his voice above a crowd hungry for his homespun rhymes."
I think some words that stand out to me are “ silk-smooth” and “hot, sweaty black and brown bodies”. I think silky-smooth stood out to me because it gives you a feel of the record spinning, and it is very soft and smooth. I think that “hot, sweaty black and brown bodies” stand for black kids being hot and sweaty after school.

The quote I chose: " his hands created syncopated rhythms that hit our ears like musical bombs". I chose this quote because it was describing what happened and where the first hip hop song was created, and how it got its name “Rapper's Delight”. And not to mention that this type of music was created by colored people, and this was something that will be remembered not just by how they look, also colored people where not recognised and this was a way they where proven to do the same as white people and that they are the same.

I chose this because it shows the wounds they put on people and it hurts when things get tough. Sometimes other people make it worse and then make more deep wounds. (mentally of physically)

This poem by Clint Smith is about a dark history of slavery and racism. It follows all of the terrible events and terrible ways of people in history. It mentions slave boats, and death, all because of racism.

Quote: I pull my index finger from Angola to Brazil & feel the bodies jumping from the ship. I drag my thumb from Ghana to Jamaica & feel the weight of dysentery make an anvil of my touch. I slide my ring finger from Senegal to South Carolina & feel the ocean separate a million families.

I chose this poem and quote because it gave me so much more information about what life was like in history for African Americans. It taught me about more events that I'd never heard of, and I deeply believe I was uneducated about this.

My project represents these events in history and represents the layer of dark and heaviness the author is trying to show. I hope people can learn as much as I did from this poem and from this image.

“he had to lie down among the dead, coffining himself between two fallen neighbors, readying himself for the shot to the head”
I picked this quote because of the fact it shows that there are always things people can do, and people can't. People CAN murder tens and hundreds of people. People CAN'T stay strong forever. Seeing the sight of 2 fellow neighbors dead, can make you lose hope. Making it like a torn up picture of acquaintance, friends, or even family.

This quote explains how Phillis was not appreciated and when she passed everyone just kind of moved on, because she wasn’t  mentioned in books or most spoke of when talking about Black successors, but her poems that spoke of black history were really important.

The birth of Hip-hop

Quote: “ Scratching and mixing his hands he made rhythms that really hit our ears.”
I chose this quote because I found this very interesting and impressive that people made sounds to make hip-hop music today. Also I don’t think we would have hip-hop music today if back then they had not created hip-hop with sounds and objects.

Quote
"Before the lights went out and the buses arrived, before the cameras arrived and showed the fuller of an indifferent nation, there where families inside though some who failed to call them family."

I picked this quote because it showed how when this natural disaster strikes all the cameras where there for was the destruction and to show how this indifferent nation had failed. This really spoke to me because when this disaster happened everyone join forces to help each other but the camera's didn't see that they just saw the destruction and what would make good headlines.
