Hello, today we will be interviewing Cassie Logan.

A woman that she and her family expired


racism at the worst and changed the way that the black community in her town looked at
commonly used places and commonly overlooked injustices.

P: So miss logan what was the first time that you were racially discriminated.

C: The first time I knew I was racially discriminated against is when I was 9. I remember it like
it was yesterday. That day I went for the first time to strawberry fields with big mama and my
brothers we to sell our goods when we approached the field where we could sell or goods big
mama parked far away from the exit. At the time I did not understand why we had to park there
so I got into an argument with big mama about it. later while big mama was talking to the family
lawyer my brothers convinced me to go to the store to buy the things that big mama needed.
While we were in the store Stacey showed us a gun that he liked I remember it had white grips.
We went to the shop keeper and gave him our list of things that we needed. While he was
working on my order his wife called him over for some older white customer after a 15minutes
of waiting I went to look for him he was serving a little white girl she was probably smaller than
me. thug on his sleave he pushed me away and started freaking out like he just saw a ghost. Back
when I was 9 I did not know what was happening. he kicked me out of the store. While I was
waiting outside the store a family of white people tried to push me on to the road which started
an argument of me trying to stay on the curb and them calling me slurs and pushing me with
more force. In the end, I was forced to excuse myself by big mama.

p: What did you feel back then

C: At the beginning, I felt very confused and angry because big mama made me excuse myself
but after a while, of explaining of my parents and brothers it clicked for me and I thought that
that was wrong and that I wanted it to change which bring us to today.

P: What are your opinion on the march on Washington that happened a few days ago.

C: I think that that will not change anything and that it will not prove that we have been
oppressed for so many years. I think that the only way to fight violence is through violence. I
think that to teach them a lesson we have to fight back.
P: What do you think about the methods that martin Luther king jr used to reach this point?

C: I think that the way that Martin Luther King reached this point is unethical this is because he
used the media and a natural weakness towards children to have people agree with him. Yet this
will not change the opinion of the real problem such as groups like the KKK. and it will make
them just think that they won. Inconclusion I agree with marting Luther king's main message but
I don't like or think that the way that he is transmitting the message is right.

P: How are you going to make a difference?

C: I am going to fight fire with fire I am going to conduct people to attack the main leaders of the
KKK. Just to hit them at their core so that we can prove that the coloured community is not weak
and that we will have our revenge.

P: Thank you for this interview miss logan this was very interesting.
