Let It Roll

D.D. Dawson

Description

Let It Roll. The title was taken from a prophetic statement that tradition attributes to the Black prophet and freedom fighter Nat Turner. Regarding Turner's 1830 rebellion, allegedly, God spoke to Nat Turner and told him "Whether it comes rough or smooth, you surely must bear it." Pertaining to the status of Black education in Mississippi, Let It Roll is what God told me to also do.
I became a tortoise teacher. I stuck my head out of my room when my class entered my classroom and when they exited my classroom. Otherwise, my classroom stayed locked. The young man's pants were ripped from A to Z. He sat in front of me and refused to close his legs. God wanted me to tell the world that Mississippi White educators were no longer solely responsible for the inadequate education that poor Black students received. He wanted the world to know that African American educators and administrators had failed to properly educate and discipline His children. And, He wanted the world to know that sound education is not dependent upon dollars but upon dedication.
