Sally Kohn: My dad was born in the back of her room as most blacks were in those days. She says he didn't know his birthday, but she wrote it down for him every time May 25 rolled around. "My mom told me that when you went to a department store,. if you could go to one, because my grandfather grew stuff and gave it to the guy who owned the department store" The formula to escape poverty is 'finish high school,' get a job, don't have a child until you're married; avoid criminal justice system by getting married before having children.
