    I agree don’t get ur hopes up but stand the fuque up. we organize for million man march, civil rights but we never marched about what is the biggest reason why we still for the most part are stuck today. our grandparents built the some of the most profitable cities in the country. And all they gave you was drugs, section 8, and imprisonment of millions of nonviolent black males.
