interview!!!

In the interview to Daisy Kinard by Richard Lieberman, Daisy is an African American worker who left North Caroline in 1941, 4 months after graduate from High School. He moves to New York since in North Caroline he did not have opportunities to succeed. In North Caroline he had to face many inequalities as racism since the school and low pay jobs in youth. He worked in a tobacco factory which is one of the most common jobs in those years. The fifties were years that had a lot of racism, therefore, for African Americans get well paid jobs were very difficult. Other than that, to achieve college education people had to work hard; transportation was one of the biggest issues because small towns were very far to the city or to the places where the schools were, and it made very difficult to people to go to educational centers. Finally, he moves to New York looking for equality and better opportunities with respect to job, education and less racism.
