mission to transform the state juvenile justice system j g.p.l. hold failures to educate young people about how the law can affect the lives i'm number of national studies have looked at the fact that when you take a child away from their community you take them out of school you take them away from any support system they're often housed in inhumane and brutal conditions rarely get adequate education or treatment if you're disrupting their lives without actually providing them with any positive interventions are positive supports and so what happens is that upon release there are even less prepared to deal with society too often with time in jail in the criminal record many youth find it hard to finish school or to find employers that will hire them.

one block away from the prison is liberty's kitchen and organization dedicated to helping at risk youth right now a lot of various so i'm trying to scream i pad but i'm going to do a lot of the time i was on a gun challenge i want it out for thought and bad police. dog and ization trained sixteen to twenty year olds in a working restaurant work often begins with a group discussion over a daily quote it's easier to build strong children than the paper of good men is easy to build strong children in the paper can men liberty's kitchen aims to put you on a road to a self-sufficient life you know mongul school right now because their money that you make a lot of the young people i work with don't have exams don't have miles of people get up go to work every day they young sixteen seventeen years old so naturally they don't have work experience lapham's don't want to hire young people because you have to make a commitment to training and that's that's of that everybody's will and will do for

kids who don't have support it can be hard to live up to the requirements of probationary period. so that means that they need to go check it once a week drug court so they've got to go to drug class once a week he would serve you have those three points that that will happen you still have fines and fees you've got to hustle pay for the fees hustle does that mean that you're one of those of the league so that increases the likelihood of you being picked up again same thing over and over for kids who need income selling drugs often seems like the only available job as i was thirteen i got in a game with twenty doubt it was a twenty dollar flip around never to call a flippers twenty dollars could you could break them a hair and make two twenty out of rocks so if i have twenty doubt that i'm going to flip a rock break and i have to make four take effort to get to know flippers. rate them have now got eight but i didn't make the five sales and i don't carry my twenty dollars and also the one hundred up i mean i've been a money more then what

a fifty he was supposed to make you get out of school at three and if you from three to twelve at night you know i traveled with twenty dollars an hour left by twelve o'clock you got five hundred dollars and a truck and i had a camaro. just on the avenue i had to make money my arms all work you might be on drugs my fears and i made a home where we may be lonely sounds oh yes. but only sound as a rhyme in the i'll get our restaurant is made down well the for status on necessity the law of selling drugs lead to packing guns for protection it was like no i've got a gun too i don't know there was a gun maybe made a film asking us what he wanted a girl so i'm a give me a gun that i don't want you started on me what ya got a gun to welcome our you we've got scary you had to have missed dealing with that you really had to have specially with me because i didn't deal. i don't deal in my

neighborhood because. in a good scene knowledge of that ahead older guy was going to really step it if they had a beef between younger cats and really wants to be me like maybe i'll need to stop this no i don't know which i went through whatever but this is before any good thing has only more blood on sharon but as well now eight really don't have the older figure to come in and stop right now. that they say other people in my family have done because they contribute to you know like drugs and virus not just the fact that it's the fifth day just because what they do i think there's a man is going to come and try to get me ruthann decent happens every day at this moment some matters for to somebody somehow most is that what we did i'm one big home with you know street justice. who put you in a hole when you retire early to this family and their families are returning to

this family in the wallet game with when i walk out the door and the first thing that goes in my mind i look to the left and i wait for about ten seconds to make sure that nobody's coming they say in a car coming to my right it's not going to get to before you give me. the raise you . cause more so you've got to be straight you got a gun. and we got the guy you can protect yourself. airboat milly's a youth organization which made a short film focus on retaliation we had hit in the family my son was one of six years old he was a joy computer engineering and worked for coca-cola bollen at night he got shot five times and he and we read into that at depth we had to do some model gun volleys because i had another son still to still live in and also we had community members and founded members there it was

a set of bodies and we knew that we didn't need people retaliate not sons murder if it's not you. it's only live in son was cast as michael a boy who was pressured by friends to retaliate for his brother's murder every time you kill one black kid you a do a number he's citing his friends to take a keogh you.

just. never lost the challenge. you don't know what you know you hear stories about it so many people used to think the authority but you loads but you really don't know how i feel into you. you. it's an epidemic and you really have to understand on that day i lost my identity i was a mother and wife who had two children and now have one i don't believe and not answer the question when people ask me how many children i have david's death murder left a huge gaping hole in my life like half a meter high with him as an great emptiness so i had to fill that up with something .

when you tell someone it just child was murdered in the streets or you know it or the ex how he died or he was shot to be he you know he was murdered ok did they automatically assume what he must the was involved in some type of drug so he most you know was a big one of the streets or whatever person killed another person you are destroying this person whole family the whole family and the only day family your family also you know your families where you are into two families. over for this generation you can't say this to parody made up a mouth i don't think there's hope to stop violence in new orleans i don't think violence but never stuff on ruby going no i don't think so and if the neck

generation will be like degeneration then you know put them in jail that's not going because when they get out they battle worth it and what they'll learn before it went so well life some people just bang in a row my thinking killing is cool it gets you by gives you power so i don't know how you go will come know even though. everything that seems to be true to me in reviewing the murder board and reading the articles of virtually every murder victim. the one constant is in some way there is a connection to poverty when you live in poverty at some point in some generation you'll move from poverty with almost to her a spirit of hard work and labor you will you will eventually shift to

despondency. and hopelessness if you've got nothing and you've got no opportunity what he did. you start to construct your own culture and society against the news that is glorified if you seal minda dogs in a big cause in a drawer as a glorified kid see or just on t.v. you see it but they can't put their hand i want to be can you get how can i get this they make it look like is. so key no. one is not but they tend to not care because they're hungry they want to feed their family so much. they don't really you know pay attention to what they're actually were kind of monster to creating one of the people working to

contradict those images of violence is kevin griffin he's a member of toussaint a media collective that combines entertainment with education like here you don't even talk to you when you're mad he's everything from fang to the future of his life. in a place. like sesame street meets the most important. remember when everybody has a. danger around every corner. every call. to send social commentary has gone at them several wars and a loyal following on you tube there's a lot of opportunities for negativity to just grow and you've got to accept what kind of culture we have where the negativity can grow so easy. to. mock it. and tell us your rant was like oh. hold up.

have that kind of thing right why would you you know do your thing and that's fine but why we try to use that you know that power that mess for something positive you know because if it's the wind tomorrow say it you know what i think they can always it's cool if you don't make every shot will be in the books. but. one of two since most popular videos is every book in the world a parody of the way the song every girl in the world the video was created as part of a book giveaway. and no. one . in this day and age we have so many more

outlets that people didn't have years ago that. people can buy on camera they can do a thing you know now you can sort of create the change you want to see you i got to say you know you can become that thing that you want to change and broken for the world but to a kid when you know about some cinema can you imagine what would. you do right nobody like to change that kind of came about those who. just want to show that it's a lot more to put them in that. just back from out you can be right even if you feel your religion voice me. with a variety of problems facing new orleans youth there isn't an easy solution but the efforts of two sets and a number of youth development programs across the city are planning the seas of

change and the ninth ward internationally known event producer call washington volunteers his time to coach kids killed all want to be bad good don't want to be gangsters they don't want to be drug dealers they don't want that but without a time live they help a k.k. maybe we can see when we first came this play was a major because sorry we had to work on them we had to get that to be the number one thing and we won a battle was there so we had to stay here we were going to be engaged in life want to develop bases and we were serious about we want to go we would do it there we saw a change the n.i.d. or disrespect they appear attention more focus more concerned and eager to want to learn and grow and develop for the first patches and brought more part of the daily commitment is helping kids to see a brighter future seventy five percent of children i worked with couldn't write down their dreams and their hopes their aspirations we talked to a one thousand year old who didn't and i asked what he was going to do in five years and he said i'm not to be alive in five years. and so we realized we had to

wipe that slate clean that that curriculum is not going to work here we had to start with the basics teach the kids how to imagine again one of our foster children that lived with us during this time came up to me very very worried he was not he thought that my seven year old there was something wrong with him because the seven year old was sitting on the couch saying hey chris ok we're in a spaceship we're going to go explore you sit here and i'll be the pilot and chris was trying to convince me. me there was something wrong with my son because he didn't know where he worked as chris had lost at nine years old the ability to imagine while development activities for youth vis pageants realize that many of the children at the center only getting fed in school. we said we did something one thursday night that's now turned to every thursday night we had some extra money and we had a donation come in that we were allowed to order pizza with we had everybody come

in and they had to sit down at a meal i rearranged all the tables into a family style meal and we served the pizza sitting down and having a meal together and they had to talk to each other well those who are not from new orleans may not know this but third wards are not supposed to talk to ten thwart their mamas and their grandmothers and their great grandmothers have told them that parkway in zion city no way but the power of pizza over that seems to win every day they have to sit down when they eat together and they have to speak to each other kids have found out they were related when they thought they were enemies kids or found out they have a common grandparent kids have found out their evacuation story was the same. and i find this common ground when they talk to each other like anything this is a very good day for the kids. to keep kids off the street to help you homework

we have my fun time family night make sure no one has a curve. in their pants down below but they teach us to do the right bangs and like so we don't go in a bad direction we don't have fun and no no and then don't know what happened to them or all the kids cavities all the right ways the water they'll get farther behind us and do the right thing. quartered central city you can palm a project helps young people from around the area by providing a variety of services they offer tutoring mentor and counseling as well as special assistance to those who are transitioning back home from detention centers by providing tents case management we could help them reconnect you know with family and community and make a healthy transition into young adulthood when they self esteem is now when they

begin to feel that nobody is want to give them an opportunity but then they began to shut down and they go back to the things that are in their community that they think is a way to get out of it or a nasty struggle is like a revolving door i know christian won't kill us all right you bet how you. live on through. the word. and what you think about the supports that you hare and if they were not there you know with choices which you have may feel should be reflected is that you know that you should be doing what you should be using some this only. make you you know it's not something that's going to happen overnight it's a it's a process you know you have to get back to the things that we got away from and it's about understanding and allowing the kids. to to to know that you really

care you know because if you take hope i mean if you don't you don't have the new reason all of you have raised four way when our. you know i was going to be. in. the bedroom you know one of the last words was it really not going to buy a. village who are actually. doing the film around us nice to just get up to go to the river they now want out there and that will help. our holy. see soon. so yes if we see you in the least you know you're going for a change when we talk about. our. time and be helpful be ok you are losing control because you do what is the reason hazy you follow the rules i've always been told that a very good very good this or a good one you raise
