no youre not , I dont get it at first too. =)
I dont mind explaining ,

The most important item in silkscreening is = photo emulsion
photo emulsion is like film. ( they use this photo emulsion for polaroid if still dont understand can ask me again but the emulsion for polaroid is super sensitive ) 

This photo emulsion is not that sensitive. in fact you can actually just do it in open air , without a darkroom. All you need is just a room with dim lights.

and of course we need to print the image ( that we want to burn onto the screen ) and it has to be black ! because when the lights go through your paper , it will burn the image onto the screen when you expose it. and when the image is burned onto the screen, the black parts will fall off when you wash the screen.

the screen : the frame is to hold the silk ketat ketat and so we can put emulsion and burn the image onto it. its like a platform
Understand anot ?
