I, Darrion Nashawn Brown, the first youngest of eight siblings (three older brothers, two older half-brothers, one older sister and two younger brothers), was born on Saturday, May 29, 1999 at the St. Bernard's Hospital in Englewood, which is located on the south side of Chicago, Illinois, U.S. Since my birth, I have shuffled between Englewood and Washington Park to spend time with my uncle. He would often take me to Calumet Park on the city's unofficial east side on certain occasions before he lost his home. After that, he took me back to Englewood, but in a different street subject, close to West Englewood on the southwest side (I'm not really a southwestern Chicagoan).
Englewood, one of the several neighborhoods on the south side of Chicago, which I was born and grew up in.
In 2000, around April at the time, my father began to notice something weird from me and reminded my mother about my being non-verbal. Once we went to the same hospital I was born in. A doctor screened me for any possible health problems. Then, the unthinkable came... I was on the spectrum. A specialist reminded everyone around me that I would end up non-verbal for about six months to a year. However, as the year came to a close end and the third millennium was about to begin, the first word I said after that period was "hey".
By the time gun violence began to hamper my birth city, my family finally decided that, in early-May 2001, close to my second birthday, it was time get out of Chi-Town (now known by many as Chi-Raq). The next day, I woke up to see Galesburg in Knox County. However, I only lived in Galesburg for the seven-year period before seeing Sikeston, Missouri to my disinterest in 2008.
My time in the city of Sikeston (which I still am stuck in) has never been fabulous at all. I only attended Sikeston High School in 2013, but I never was able to graduate.
Now, I am currently a self-employed online art shop dealer. I am also a rapper, producer, songwriter, actor, filmmaker and entrepreneur. I never let my disability deceive me. I never let my disability take control of who I am as a person. I am only human and I make several mishaps. I am who I am for the sake of me. It's not as simple as I see black and white. It's generic. That is who I am.
