SHAWN: Curtain. CRYSTAL: spray the curtain and the rod and we're good. SHAWN: | live in a trailer with my mom and my sister, Dior. There's not enough room in the house for my brother to stay, so he lives with my grandparents and he comes down to visit as much as he can. EDWARD: You can make it. SHAWN: This is my first time living in a trailer. SHAWN, 13 SHAWN: The walls, you canthey're really thin and so you can hear a lot of things. The reason we moved into a trailer is because it's something that she can afford. CRYSTAL: Here, you can hang this up. I'm a single-parent mother. I've always worked, up until I found out I had a kidney disease and was told by my doctor that they didn't want me to work. SHAWN: She couldn't really get a job because when she'd stand or something, her feet would get swollen. CRYSTAL: Because of the fact that I couldn't keep working, I do get benefits right now. SHAWN: That's not a phone, missy! My mom gets food stamps. HUD pays the rent. That helps us out a lot because she only has to pay one or two bills. So she has other money to buypay for other things, like clothes, shoes and that type of stuff. CRYSTAL: Right now 1 am getting assistance until I get back into the workforce. So I do have to work hours off. Working off hours are basically hours that I'm assigned to be eligible for my benefits. CRYSTAL Shawn's mother CRYSTAL: Thank you for calling the Salvation Army. This is Crystal, how can I help you? SHAWN: She works at a place called the Salvation Army. They give out free food, free clothes to other people. CRYSTAL: We have sliced potatoes. What I get is $485 per month and I get approximately $400 in food stamp assistance. Sol take $885 times 12 equals $10,620 for three. SHAWN: My mom stretches the money that she gets to last out the whole month, but some things I can't get that I want. The grocery stores are running out of supplies and stuff, like toilet paper, bread, meatsl don't know, a few things. My mom, she does still work, which kind of scares me. They have to do something called "curbside pickup." CRYSTAL: OK, we have Evner and Edding for right here. SHAWN: She goes up to people's cars and puts the food box in the trunk. C RYSTA L: OK, we gotcha.You guys have a wonderful day. MALE CAR DRIVER: Thanks a lot, guys MALE SALVATION ARMY VOLUNTEER: Have a good one. Stay safe. SHAWN: If I had my choice, I probably wouldn't want my mom working because there's still a chance of her getting sick from contact with other people. Even their carsthey could have coughed or something and it could have gotten on the car. I don't know, there's still any chance that she could still get the virus. CRYSTAL: I am still required to work my hours for my assistance that I'm getting. Peaches. Long-term, I don't know how that's going to change, and the virus could very well change that. If we're not allowed to work then that means I can't complete my hours, so maybe my assistance could get shut down. I don't know. I guess that's something that's all coming down the pipeline, but as of right now we're at a standstill with knowing what's going to happen. MIKE DEWINE: My fellow Ohioans, we have not faced an enemy like we are facing today in 102 years. You have to go back to the 1918 influenza epidemic. SHAWN: Dang. MIKE DEWINE: CRYSTAL: I'm listening. Let's put these under here so they don't get wet. Nice Chromebooks. Ready to start your ed- CRYSTAL: ' 7 _ ucation. You want me to pUSh' lam 50' so glad The email said that Mrs. Matters passed away. SHAWN: SHAWN: I'm not. Nuhuh. CRYSTAL: CRYSTAL: that you get to start dOIng some schoolwork, son. It said she passed away at her home surrounded by her family and friends. Come here. It's all SHAWN: right. Why? Then I'm going to be asking if you're homeschooling me, yup. Yup. It's OK. And the school says that they're sorry that your life has been disrupted and they'll CRYSTAL' be making every attempt to support you, and if you want we can request a phone call from your counselor. OK? You want to give him a hug? You want to give Bubby a hug? Do you Yeah. We'll fi ure it out to ether. 9 g knowwas there somethingwas she was ill? SHAWN: SHAWN: What's important about school is that I have support by my teachers, counseling and some Cancer of my friends. I CRYSTAL: Hey, really? She's been battling cancer. One of the main teachers that helped me a lot was Mrs. Matters and I haven't seen her since lockdown. But I know that she does have cancer, which really worries me. SHAWN: Is there anything that l have to do, assigned? When W35 it? CRYSTAL: CRYSTAL: What? This was just sent today, honey. SHAWN: SHAWN: Is there something that I'm assigned to do yet? The loss of her is really big to me, and I don't think anyone else can take her spot. She was there for me when I needed her. She taught me how to read. She'd just brightened up my CRYSTAL: . . . . . . . , . . morning bYJUSt simply sayingby smiling at me and saying 'good mornrng.' Idon't know, we'll have to read. Let me see my phone and I'll read the email. Let's check the KYAH' emails. Coronavirus has had a big impact on us because the place we're at is getting annoying. It's This emailShawn, I have to tell ou somethin . _ _ , . y 9 such a tight space and it's three people. Sometimes we'll go to my mom's friend's house to SHAWN: get away. All of the younger grades, it's really hard for any of them to do their work because they're younger, and they're used to having that structure at school where their teacher tells them to do their work. And if they're at home, their parents are at work orjust don't enforce it how they should of how they need to do their school work. CANDY: Democracy is LAIKYEN: They gave me a packet. And | go down to the Gospel Mission and Miss Candy helps me. CANDY: We're going to get that D up. LAIKYEN: I don't care. CANDY: Yeah, you do. Yeah, you do care. I care. Jeff cares. And you'd care. It'sjust a lot LAIKYEN: Idon't really care. CANDY: It's just a lot on you right now 'cause you didn't get it done. We could have done it, and now we're just LAIKYEN: ljust can't. I can't CANDY: It's all right. LAIKYEN: No, I can't concentrate. MIRACLE: lf Laikyen doesn't do her work then she's probably going to struggle. It's harder for Laikyen because she has ADHD and her mind's all over the place. LAIKYEN: I can't concentrate. CANDY: The leader of North Korea LAIKYEN: I'm reading it! I have to read it myself. CANDY: OK. LAIKYEN: [just need to know what I'm doing and 1 know what I'm doing. ljust needjust CANDY: You just need what? LAIKYEN: [don't know. Just let me try to figure it out. lfl was held back again I would be sad because 1 want to go to the middle school already. SHAWN: So, are you getting the cheeseburger? EDWARD: Yeah, Shawn. What are you getting, chicken nuggets? EDWARD, 15 SHAWN: What I miss most about school is spending time with my friends, talking to them, being able to communicate. Some classes where I had a lot of friends in, like gym class or recess, stuff like that. Because of the virus, don't do a lot of contact with other people other than family. EDWARD: Great, McDonald's is packed today! Yo, it's gonna be a minute before we order our food. SHAWN: You might want to hurry up, then. SHAWN SHAWN: | only have so much to do at home inside, and [ usually like to go outside and play basketball, but now I can't really do that because of the virus. You're not supposed to be in a group with a lot of people. Being online, I can still talk to people and communicate with them, but I'd much rather communicate with them in person. You want a cheeseburger or nuggets? DIOR: Nuggets. SHAWN: Nuggets? EDWARD: Yo, a Mustang. SHAWN: I usually spend time with my brother and my sister, Dior. I usually take her on walks some- times. I walk to McDonald's because they have a free lunch for schoolaged kids. EDWARD: Hello? DIOR: Hello! Hello! EDWARD: We're here for the free lunch. SHAWN: My mom thinks of me as a father-figure to her 'cause she don't really have one. CRYSTAL: He is the little man of this house. He takes on that role. SHAWN: Oh, really, now. Oh, really. CRYSTAL CRYSTAL: Help me feed her, get her diapers together, carry her, watch cartoons with her, play with her those type of things that a father would do. So, I tell Shawn that he is her brother-father and he likes that. [laughs] SHAWN: Family is really important to me. My family was like my role model. Now that I'venow I'm older, now l have to be Dior's role model. It's a lot of pressure on me, but I try to do my best. If I feel sad or something, I have a counselor to talk to. I told my mom that I needed one be cause there aren't as much people with my skin color down here. ljust keep building up stuff that I really want to talk about. I first had a counselor I'd say in fifth grade. JESSE: What I like about this location is if it ends up being rainy, we could probably then meet here if we need to. SHAWN: 0K. Jesse is my counselor. Since this virus and stuff hit, I haven't seen him muchmaybe around once a month. JESSE: Where should we start? Where would you like to start? We got finishing the school year, dealing with coronavirus and all of the things that's done in our life. SHAWN: If I feel sad or something, and I express to my mom, that would make her feel sad, and sol just would keep it to myself. B EC KY B EC KY: I think that them having an education, going to college, just being able to live the life that statistically they say we will fail at. So, yeah, this affects every dynamic of where we go in life. Because the color of our skin, it's always been an issue. KYAH KYAH: I think it does make it harder to get out of poverty. I actually am worried about the future because ljust want us to be good and don't have to worry about how we're going to get the next thing or how we're going to get food. [just want us to be all right. KELIA: l have hope, though. I have hope that this is where the struggle stops for my family. Because I'm a female, maybe I'm not asl don't feel as scared or threatened. But i think the males have it way, way, way harder than Black females. CRYSTAL: What about that? That's awesome. I like that one right there. EDWARD: I'm going to do that. SHAWN: I think being Black could affect my opportunities in the future. If I want to get a job and it's a white person that don't like Black people, they just would turn me down. SHAWN SHAWN: So, yeah, I think it could affect my opportunities in the future. CRYSTAL: I want you guys to experience what it's like tomorrow when people come together and when you stand up for what you believe in. [ don't want you to be afraid to do that, When I turned 18 I moved into an area where it was predominately Black. And when | first moved to that area my first feelings was, "Oh, my gosh, there's Black people, roll up your windows." I was scared because I was never exposed to that culture, and my father always made it something for me to fear. I ended up meeting Edward and Shawn's dad and learned it was OK to love somebody that wasn't of my skin color. ltjust made me feel like what my father taught me was ignorant, disgusting and stupid. I'm just glad that I didn't follow in his footsteps. I wouldn't have Shawn, Edward or Dior. [laughs] Their dad isn't an active part in their life. I was with him 11 years but ended up separating. CROWD [chanting]: No racist police! No justice, no peace! No racist police! SHAWN [chanting]: Black lives matter! Black lives matter! CRYSTAL: My boys prove that I broke the chains. It's a scary world for them to live in right now be- cause that racism does exist. I want them to know that they can stick up for themselves. When I was their age I wouldn't even be allowed at a place like this. It was a very, very dif- ferent world that | live in today. CROWD [chanting]: I can't breathe! SHAWN, EDWARD AND CRYSTAL [chanting]: I can't breathe! CROWD [chanting]: I can't breathe! SHAWN, EDWARD AND CRYSTAL [chanting]: I can't breathe! CRYSTAL: I can feel why people are sad, especially when they said, "I can't breathe." To think that that's the last words that he said before he died. How cruel that is. [cries]
