This book, inspired by conversations within Senior Studies, is a student organized compilation of oral histories which shares the class's experience and awareness surrounding Evanston's racial segregation, prejudice, discrimination and disparities within the community. And while it as a whole speaks to Evanston's privilege disparity, each individual adds an intersectional narrative. This piece aims to preserve the voices of the Senior Studies Class of 2017, with hopes to create change within the community by starting a conversation surrounding these stigmatized issues. Of the 73 students enrolled in this class, 37 students participated in creating this book and 33 were interviewed. Each individual involved shared their own personal experiences and reflected on their time in Evanston. As a whole, the students spoke of the necessity for change within the community, resulting from their experiences regarding discrimination, prejudice and inequity.
