Read the excerpt from we’ve got a job by cynthia levinson. most mornings, young people who set their radio dial on wenn might wake up to the popular black dj shelley stewart warbling, "good goobly woobly! ” or, maybe they’d hear him cry, "timbe, let it fall! ” as he dropped a needle onto a spinning james brown or sam cooke platter. on the morning of thursday, may 2, however, his teenaged listeners heard, "kids, there’s gonna be a party at the park. bring your toothbrushes because lunch will be served.” stewart’s white fans must have wondered what he meant. the black ones got it. this was the signal to launch demonstrations in kelly ingram park, down the street from the station’s offices. they knew there was no more chance of getting lunch in the park than there was of being served a banana split at the counter at j. j. newberry’s. but they needed their toothbrushes because, after demonstrating, they would probably be going to jail—possibly for days. the use of shelley stewart’s direct quotes in the first paragraph readers understand that stewart and his audience were very much aware that the protestors would be arrested. all of stewart’s audience did not really understand what was going to happen later in the day. stewart did not agree with what many of the city’s african-american youths were about to do. stewart thought this march would finally end segregation and usher in an age of equality.
