12:38 am
so right now still it is baltimore this is looks old calls and projects everyone lives close together close together so everybody know it's up around it as you can see is a rough neighborhood drugs police brutality high crime rate and die what we eat is as messed up. we don't have good food we're here to eat you have grocery stores where families like buy snacks like mills high poverty. low education rate. tame pregnancy. a lot of killings money is sitting around here a lot of my friends lost their lives. in this neighborhood. people can't get a job they sell drugs spray here you know waves of people come boom
12:39 am
boom boom boom boom. you know and that's how they make one is uncontrollable you got to survive look. well it's a jungle so in the jungle you got to act like a lion amongst other lines that act like the beasts a must of the beast so this is survival of the fit is at the rose for you have to survive people minds can expand if they're close together to fuss treat it in they don't know how to express themselves that was cool of ballots the government designed these housing projects and they keep people suppress.
12:40 am
i believe that the environment that you grow up in plays a huge part as to what you are experiencing your life as well as what you become when you grow up. oftentimes i'm in pittsburgh. people die in specific locations they utilize the flowers and teddy bears or create a memorial on the spot. so hopefully as a reminder to continue to reinforce why. not going the negative route or the dark road. in my adult life i've had six friends that have never heard of you gun violence in homewood. one was working as a bartender at a local bar and a patron came in and decided to shoot him inside for another young woman named jenny's tolan she was murdered in a bar of the street from the y.m.c.a.
12:41 am
because she didn't want to give her phone number to a gentleman that was there and then there's another one of our friend's name frederick douglas that was murder right on on frank's on avenue not sure for what for what reason exactly but all these places are within. two minutes of the y.m.c.a. which is unique because that's where a lot of our kids go. basketball is a easy game for kids to pick up on because all you need is a vast. you can get lost in a game for hours or years or even a lifetime for some people like michael jordan or kobe bryant. able columns on a motivation and more importantly from gives them an opportunity to explain.
12:42 am
a lot of kids look at. to athletes and entertainers so he want to be rappers for the next le bron james or they want to be their neighborhood gangsta then the neighborhood drug deal that's fascinating into so kids they get tense to see in their environment and they have options like evil you selling crack rock or you got to we can jump shot in order to excrete the hood. market and. i. was going to let all my dear me go for
12:43 am
the. so what's up man for the day. this is some of the best of his all she can't. believe she. let me also so much you shall before. i suppose most. limits tell you what you guys cannot be a real bad people. all of the reasons were because there was division you know in the principle behind dividing that's why members were united states of america not divided states. this whole area was black so what happened was they put dead highway didn't care to put the highway right down the middle right smack down the middle. of this most prosperous inner city community college jackson ward which actually was named black
12:44 am
wall street this was prosperous and then they divided it right here and as we crossed over into this section you want to see the transition. government housing became high crime drugs everything in addition to the highway as i mentioned some of the black owned businesses left their businesses to go to other areas is the. area right here and then became the ghetto this is one of the high crime areas right now and if we see the difference here government housing. you know businesses. welfare food stamps you get hooked you get hooked and basically you just barely get along and you're living off of the government see blacks did better when we didn't get help. we were getting help we did better because we had to we're forced to do for ourselves where you start giving people help and paying them then this what happens these people are used to
12:45 am
a check which is only enough for them to live in this kind of condition who wants to open up a business in a high crime area. because then you get. lost its moral compass maybe if to put more values into the system my personal opinion is we have to a strength to national institutions living in the cruel that it's like i'm lucy to scream having always you know. and come to actually we need to put back to the system and we need stronger leadership and better leadership.
12:46 am
there's a low number of opportunities here in western pennsylvania as well as in not only industries a little but a lot of our people moved as well which forced even more businesses to extremely difficult to run a business in a place like home or just because one there's not a lot of people there and then to. the people there don't have the necessary means to take advantage of extra things one of the unique businesses that has been able to been a steadfast place to look to and home with i think they're you know at least fifteen years old and mr mr bundy has been there you know making. making those donuts for for kids to make sure that they have food before they went to school for four generations upon generations so even in those situations where if mom and dad couldn't take care of kids knew that they could go to the bakery and grab a donut or grab something to make sure that they had so food in order to get
12:47 am
through today so. i don't know how they did it but they found a way to be a constant presence in that neighborhood despite what has gone. on there good or bad you know i'm very compliant we're homeward. lutherans from. their ear i don't see any new bridge for them right now. big companies of three. fell away maybe a metre corridor here we're never company called for. five hundred years and you're already been out of here. you know. that's
12:48 am
just a tough around the the guns and murders did take place right south avenue is one of the busiest roads in western pennsylvania is one of the longest and strangest roads so people arrive from the a fluent neighborhoods outside of western pennsylvania and they ride through through traffic every single day to go to work which is crazy if you go on a news it'll say you know somebody got murdered in the home with us so it's not a place that you want to pull. stop and maybe grab a dominating coffee rather than the same traffic. we've got here is the most number one. most one of the capital murder. something. you talk about your food and how it impacts cause you. thought it was thought it
12:49 am
was sixty now with no gas or no hot water all enough the solid food. so make a living. will face i was so when i. found that. i had i want to. do is like. to have a new behavior but now city you know. what i. got. you know we know. we had a bottom you have to climb all the way to how. to make a name for yourself primary right now with capital that is comparing it to like a war zone actually if you're shy of baltimore you need to do. is call me crazy yeah.
12:50 am
my senior year i found out i was having a baby by a woman that i wasn't going to marry so i dropped out of school was living out of my parents' house was broke and started dabbling in some things that i didn't need to dabble and put myself in a situation to almost be murdered. two thousand and eleven as a result of that experience that's when i made the decision to start doing what i do what i did it was a basketball team start to focus more in on my basketball career. basketball it's a competition with yourself. and. you have a concrete yourself. it's a game where you have to learn to share and play with your teammates and more importantly compete against the other team as well as the environment. when people
12:51 am
think about the ball they don't look at it in that aspect where you break it down because it's a personal battle it's a battle of amongst your team and other people. it's about emotion you and the environment. is a game of skill it's a game of aggression. and physicality where you're forced to criminal you're supposed to shoot. to force and do a lot of things that people take for granted in every day movement it's. just that that passion that i've been able to maintain from much out with a carryover that's in my adulthood is what does allow me to be so much different than everybody else and create an opportunity where people say we could hope to work to find other children in the father's neighborhoods primarily in home where i started the pittsburgh bullets to teach them how to harness that energy and maintain that energy into their adulthood so then they can continue like i said to do some of the things that i've done if not hopefully take it further and further and further down the.
12:52 am
so will be sorry i was a war. losing to many people every day on every day i don't want to stick my life in philly put up are you to somebody and that's another fatherless show i said no the one who will be meaning come home us a mother who got a time to see what mothers have to very deeply and that's just the thing isn't as is this plane is i can put it i don't want to see people being children miss where you greet go i don't need to see people getting to russia i damn sure don't want to see people you choose for those.
12:53 am
primaries based on no drug use. you know people who didn't kill for anything. ninety five percent of the crimes. or least eighty five percent of crimes is drug related. you know we're a weirdo right now currently where the number one. murder capital in united states we also number one in her way addiction here. why because we have the port which is right there we're willing to the edge of the east coast so a lot of things come through the ports and stuff the way kids get involved with drugs growing up and in a city soon as you step outside your door. being go you're right there.
12:54 am
actually some i may add when you step outside your door scuse me do you know i can use a wee for oh well scuse me you know that's all don't. mean you know got some coke oh scuse me you know got some pills. right now in the community is going through a change because it changes going on is can. mainly because john hopkins in the real estate value is going up so a lot of these residents is not going to be here to do too much longer and they're going to bring in the good food because it's already south everything is about spacing right now everything so you've got well you've got wealthy people living next to lake poor people. so eventually to poor people it's going to get it's going to it's not going to be around anymore. they're moving a poor people out to the county out this way so homeowners. they give them vultures
