Author: Angry Black Man (JK)

Born in Boston Ma to two African American parents. Schooled in public schools. In the seventh grade I was admitted into Boston Latin Academy where I went from 7th through junior year and then junior year again and then my senior year. I played football for 3 years at UMass Dartmouth, being named to the all conference team my first year. in a suprising move, I told my coach i wanted to switch to defense. it took me a year but i eventually started on defense.

I am now in my third semester here after transferring and although I miss football I have turned to my other passion, speaking and not being interrupted. What I mean by that is that now I am a radio host on a station that is 95% white. Ahhh how times have changed.
