Goals For Kayla

**R/s Jamison is her brother and he reported this to her on 09/08/15. R/s in the past, when Jamison stated that his father was beating him everyone thought the child didn’t like getting disciplined.

With Kenna, she is worried she will either end up back in jail or won't be able to see her kid.

She asked Clay why he pulled up on that ball that was thrown to him the other day. He insisted he didn’t but she said everyone in the stands could tell he did. Clay has been trying not to think about him missing that ball but Maddie brought it up again. Maddie said it’s good to talk about other things. Clay felt better after

1) From the soical workers point of view and being apart of the National Association of Black Social Workers I can see why she would not baby boy Hakim to be place in a white home, Mr. and Mrs. Smith. In the article of National Association of Black Social Workers they state that a black boy living in a white home they would not grow up with a postive racial identity. That they would not get the proper needs and attention that they would in a black family home.They say that ethnicty is everything and the child being in a white home the family may not know how to do their hair properly and then either moving to a nieghboorhood that is segergated or preparing the neighborhood that they will be a trans racial family. So for Mrs. Johnson, the social worker, looking out for baby Hakims well being is only helping him be put in the right family that would help him identify his ethnicity and no confusion with race identity.

Her whole life she was taught not to be racist and to see people as humans. Now she doesn’t know who her father is anymore.

The Hicks/Hull family was the second family that I interviewed. The family consists of three members. Samantha Hicks, the mother, is 19 years old. She is a sales associate at David’s Bridal and is considering attending a cosmetology school. Tarnche Hull, the father, is 19 years old. He works at a local jewelry store in Evansville, and Buffalo Wild Wings. Tarnche dropped out college to work. Kai Lindell Hull is their son, he is 10 months old. Samantha and Tarnche got married in April, separated in July, and divorced in October of 2014. Samantha is Caucasian and Tarnche is African-American, which causes Kai to be a mix of both races.

Kristin Woodsmall may have one of the biggest hearts out there. She entered a marriage that already had a child in the picture and took him into her heart as if he was her own. Since then they had another child together named, Kaia. From what was confided to me, Kristin and Tony were trying to have another child after Kaia, but unfortunately they couldn't catch a break. With losing a little bit of hope for creating another child, Kirstin made the best out of the situation. She became a caregiver for other people while being the best mother she could to Kaia. Kristin is the type of person to drop anything and everything in order to care for her children. Children always need someone to talk to and confide in, Kristin is that person for them. When you are dealing with kids you must be soft, yet tough and know how to discipline/praise them in an appropriate manner. Kristin has shown me that she knows how to do so, along with showing me

It all started with a normal teenage-girl named “Kelsey”, Kelsey Hayes. Sadly, her parents passed away in a car accident. She then moved in with her foster parents Sarah and Mike Neilson. She has been described as gorgeous numerous times with her pale skin, dark brown eyes, and golden-brown hair in loose waves and usually keeps her hair in a braid with ribbons, something which reminds her of her mother.

Additionally, Dolezal offers a description of her black identity as relating to her son Izaiah. As she told Matt Lauer, the moment she got full custody of her son Izaiah, “he said, ‘you’re my real mom,’ and he’s in high school, and for that to be something that is plausible, I certainly can’t be seen as white and be Izaiah’s mom” (Lauer, 2015, Dolezal). Therefore, in an effort to make her adopted son more comfortable and reaffirm his identity, she stated that she recognized the need for her to also accommodate and affirm her personal identification as a black woman.

For Shelby, it seems as though Garcia contends an individual’s “attitudes” not his or her “beliefs” are what make the individual racist (479). Still, Shelby maintains that “beliefs are essential to and even sufficient for racism” (480). Basically, Shelby argues that in order to determine whether a person is racist or not, the reasons for one’s dislike of another must be evaluated. Shelby gives the hypothetical case of Stephen (white) disliking Andre (black) because Andre was having an affair with Stephen’s wife. In this example, Shelby illustrates that Stephen’s derives his dislike of Andre from Andre’s behavior not his race (480). Thus, Shelby raises the question of what racism actually signifies. Rather than disliking someone simply on the basis of skin color, Shelby suggests that is has a “deeper meaning” (480).

The provocation towards black people in To Kill A Mockingbird angered Kayla, and she thought it was unfair they were treated this way.

Linda’s mother was married to a white man, her mother would always tell her she should marry a white man. When Linda got older she met a black man through friends and she had seen a black man is not as bad as her mother was telling her. Linda had starting to like this black man, they both met up on a date they both thought they should both further their relationship and start dating. Many years later Linda had married him, Linda’s mother was so enraged about the news, Linda and her mother never talked again from that day on her mother didn’t even come to her own child's wedding. Linda is like a flower very mellow. Linda J. is chill like a sloth

In this excerpt ZZ Packer clearly points out that the aversion the girls feel towards the whites is not based on their own experiences, but rather their families. According to their parents, dealing with “whites” was a problem every adult had to face. Lauren’s statement clearly exposes the young African-American girls’ lack of reasoning on racism, and thus portrays the parents as the responsible for the children’s behavior. Resentment on behalf of the parents did indeed have a huge impact in the brownies.

what do you think his mother weakness in revealing that she is black and his father is white?

Starr’s race had contributed to this fear of her speaking out because there was this idea that minorities, African
