In this recording, Shawn Richard-Davis is interviewed by her son Jerrell “RellBeFree” Davis. Shawn recalls her childhood in the Central District of Seattle in the 1960s, a diverse urban neighborhood where she was raised by her mother and aunt. Shawn describes being voluntarily bused to a majority-white school in a distant part of the city, where a group of young teachers inspired her to pursue her education with self-confidence and love.
