All of a sudden they were the ones who had more. They realized that they have a lot of things, even material things, while the Kenyans around us really lived in poverty.
I felt it was a privilege to be working with that population of kids, African Americans from the inner city. I got really attached to all of those kids and I'm still in touch with some of them. Now I see firsthand some of the disadvantages they face. It's very real. They need extra support. The forces these kids are up against are too much for them.
In my opinion, they needed one more year at Baraka to make it stick.
They were in really small classes and had attention slathered on them. And they got a chance to be kids again in a place where there were no drugs or abuse.
What the school hoped to do for these kids was to hold them accountable for their actions, which they'd never really had before.
