Alice Johnson came to Whitaker to see her granddaugh ter Al-Sherre Johnson perform and to see her in the nice tradi tional attire made by her friend. "They were beautiful," said Alice Johnson about the stu dents. "They really are brave." Al-Sherre's mother, Angela Robinson, said her daughter had been talking about Africa quite a bit around the house lately and enjoyed researching the conti nent. ? {? ? ? : * Robinson added that a lot of the program's success could be attributed to the teachers.

Crime, Drugs from page 1 through the bushes, which cre ates an easy escape route for criminals. Nordlander feels that residents are not totally to blame for the crime, but some are prob ably contributing by providing hideouts for those committing crimes. "There are some good peo ple out there and I don't think a lot of the problem comes from the people who live there," 'he said. "Some residents are proba bly accessories by admitting rel atives or friends to hideout with them." Jones said residents and some business leaders have met and they have proposed additional lighting to help solve problems. She said they will meet next month and continue to have ongoing meet ings to establish a better relation ship. "We are tired of being blamed for all the negative things that happen over there," she said. "They admitted that we were an easy target, but we want to continue working with them to solve the problems." Residents, Drug Dealers from page 1 Howell said. "We told the police what had been happening and they' investigated and made the arrests on their own. Our neigh borhood was dead. All you could see were addicts and dealers. We got tired of seeing the lives they were destroying and them bring ing our neighborhood down." Delma Crosby, who has lived on Watkins Street for five years, helped convince Howell to stay although Crosby has also been previously threatened Crosby said she was threat ened again Sunday and her daughter was attacked Monday after an article appeared in the Winston-Salem Journal , and said she was told by drug dealers that she was second on their "hit list" behind Howell. The incident was not reported to police. "If she had left, it woyld have given them the upper hand," Crosby said. "I don't think any of us should leave on account of them. Although I know what they are capable of doing, we can't leave our homes. We have to fight back." Crosby also has two children at her home.
