Storyteller: Jamaine Del-Rosario

This story, by "Smokey," is a true story written for a class project, that he turned into a digital story as part of his work at the Camfield Technology Center this summer. It uses spoken word and repetition of the phrase "take a walk in my shoes," to emphasis his feelings of disappointment of having to move to a one bedroom apartment in the projects with his family of seven. It happened because his mom got into trouble with the law and they lost everything.
