- Abstract
- Jamell Walker is from California, and the conversation begins with her discussing the similarities between California and Miami. She then goes on to talk about how family was big for her growing up and then later on joining a sorority. She then talks about how she now finds community with the parents of her children’s friends. Later she goes into how her sister inspires her. She talks about living in a predominantly Hispanic area that is very Trump-saturated, and how there was a lot of pushback within her community to the Black Lives Matter movement. She talks about going out and introducing her children to her neighbors as a way of keeping them safe from being mistaken for criminals. She later touches on everyone's responsibility to love, care for, and protect each other.
