Blackceramicdoll Histoires

Her name was Oasis Kai Evans, and she was sick of being the oddball in life. She was that black girl who was always stuck in between. Oasis is always underappreciated and taken for granted. At school in the morning, nobody would want to talk to her. When it came to conversations, she'd always have to start them. When it came to music tastes, no one ever heard of the artists she was talking about. Worst of all, Oasis couldn't confide in anybody about anything, not even her own mother and father. So, she decided to go about finding what she wanted in her own way. Somehow it worked out in her favor... She found exactly what she was looking for in the most unexpected person.

Xosha Lafayette is an incoming freshman and film major at Texas A&M University, a school she has been looking forward to attending her whole life. She already knew that college life wouldn't be easy, and adjusting to campus life would be difficult. Especially being one of the few black people, who only made up 4% of the school's entire population. However, she didn't expect the school year to start off with a series of racially motivated crimes either. Looking for refuge, she and a few friends join the school's Black Student Union, the only place where ignored issues are brought to life and discussed. At first Xosha believes that she made the right decision to join; after all, who else can she depend on but her own people? But does being a part of something greater than herself help her, or make things more dangerous? All Rights Reserved. Maryam A. Muhammad ©
