Brittany Discussion Question 7/23

In chapter 2, "The Hood" in Our America, LeAlan Jones compares the Ida B. Wells housing projects, because of the shootings that take place during the summer months, to Vietnam.

As a reader, from what you have read so far, do you find the living conditions, where the boys live, to be acceptable? As a young person living in America, do you feel uncomfortable hearing that one of America's leading cities' public housing developments was once compared to Vietnam?
