or a kind of prison i was young and speak very well, wasn't really educated. ah, some people believed that in the gang lifestyle that they were somebody, he was important to a particular group of people. they would rather be an important tyrant. then an average citizen has to struggle. some people are afraid of being who they are. the road is an easy growing in developing an easy prison isn't easy,

ah managed mani carter. and i'm probably starting to like statements for a gang related dropout happened 9 years ago. my victim was innocent. he was also a student who was attending college. his name is corey pittman at this time, i would like to apologize to the family because only now about begun to understand that the enjoyment of life was taken away can never be replaced. and i'm sorry, my history is the life of a lot of kids out there at our community. and my reality as a young man, life in prison will be their future. if we don't start creating better ways of dealing with our children.

a lot. i know that we all were lot of the blindly enough blown out here with no, no better with the money's to be out here. what us you know, baby quickie, young gangster, young brother. just eager to prove his wife. i was 18 when i met him. but he was doing the same things i was doing, you know, and he was only 11 to 12. for me. he felt like we were his family, a gangster. we can tell him what to do. i wonder what his way he looked at. she straightened her eyes for head is now fear, attitude you need is that my guy never seen his mom around like united us use the not me. he was outside with as a light come on,

i don't know too much about my dad. never seen. i seen his mom in i grew up into like really bad situation. a little rundown poor like really no food really that. ah, he is basically raising himself, that's what we came in. or we was picking him up, keep him out, us swan in the ropes hole some how to run the streets lava. oh oh is dressel dresser? hi, he got his pistol and he got suppressed. keep it on you. oh

darcy and went to prison and we want to be like them all my friends is either in prison lan forever or day. and so i dug this all relic out. i wasn't certain i could find it and it was accidental. dfi a off say dug it out of their missing. it's got to be back to $8889.00 we were educating ourselves. there's so many kids out here run in his gang members and we started keeping a notebook on him and mr. getting pictures and they found out we had it and they all wanted to see someone come up and say my, my face isn't in there. it goes for a photograph. those are all the original kids that were recruited and ta to be gang members. by the ela gangs, they were smart, they were natural leaders, the other kids looked up to him and listened to him. they could all do math in

their head. you know, they all thought they were stupid or later because they didn't finish school. but they knew how many houses, or in a pound, how many a balls you could get an out, how much money they should get back, how much they were owed. they were sharp, little guys. they had to be 10 or 12 now. when the 1st time that i've ever encountered law enforcement, i was young, i was a kid kind of running away from home. and i was basically living in this abandoned house with all of these other teenagers and kids . one more than i was ride, my bike could i was cut into the house because the house is kind of like a short cut. you know, to the next block. i've seen some police in the backyard this

morning. the police officer who drew down on the telling me don't move, she was going shoot. that's a for some other that a rest percent taken me home and said me to do when i was 11. i guess they kind of charge us with burglary. for those kids at home when i kind of claim them as my family when not and, and a home that's what would there for me every single time i what did you will always met somebody who did something different but um i never met none of you kids before my life, but all was that i me was say it say if i, while he's in here for possession of crack cocaine, you know, it's and,

and he was making 2 or 300 out paper boys no longer. i'm on jet or selling arms. now would you rather when you, you just fuel the mom as a nation? because you guys all my i had a, we will shut out economically. who is still shut out economically. the institutional racism that we have around economic steel persists the underlying issues m. j disparities with education, with employment, with health care, with transportation, with housing. oh, let's look at drugs. let's look again, let us look about those. the outcome. those are not input. the inputs are the disparities that lead to that then american money,

speech. money makes policy. money decides who makes money off of drugs and whose communities are devastated. it is systemic. are we really saying to ourselves in this? got that money is more bon, any other thing and how to get it and who you get it from? an injustice and all that other stuff is just the system as a firm. and really yes. if that's all you leave for me to l, i will make it work. when i was cook my hopes for white books, you know, while i am your slave 8 what she had left,

you damn sure didn't leave no pork roast for me. no, no, no, no baby, back ribs. i got a snout, a ears, a tail. good cheers and mama nail made it best they could because that was worth it. if you leave room 2 drugs, alcohol criminal activity to make a living legal, michael the take from the church, the church, a lawyer. i was a single mother, raising 2 children on the hilltop, didn't have much money. the california gains came up, made it so appealing to be a gang member. i could maybe put $10.00 in his pocket for allowance where they would give him a $1000.00 in his pocket. i always think that if willing had been younger older he

wouldn't have been swept into that lifestyle. that he was just a prime age for what they were looking for. he was 11 and they were already starting to recruiting process to get willie and many other young ones to sell rock cocaine and powder cocaine. one time he told me that he wasn't going to go to school and i told him, oh you're going to school today. and he made a phone call and 10 minutes later there was 3 cars in the alley, gang members sitting on the hood of the car as they were vanishing guns. and they told me as i'm going to school today, because he's coming with us. i took him, i felt so helpless like what, how do i fight this? calling the police? they didn't care. i said it was his choice, not when it took off and that's when it got so violent. lot of kids went

around. wow. i loss of all life 30 brands at this time, what we will it in a know how many lies, 2 bags and how bad it would end up being just got worse. and then finally, one day i was at work and my husband at the time, tell me i need to get home cuz police are going to your house for search warrants. and on when i got home, they said, your son cross the line this time and we got him for murder. this will, he was 17 and 18 sentenced him to a 100 years and present. ah ah, ah, a

ah. a with with both, both the models you need to do both with a, with a,

with a with he's here with us. the personal number given that we're done with the joggers archipelago, told me that she goes to san diego garcia, the largest island in the archipelago is now the location of a very large u. s. military base. you can go from med, jeez, i to the u. s. government to make

a military base and just reported or juggle some people from their country. so they call it returned back on the island. no, but we are fighting. that's why i'm fat real fighting for the right. so i, we do not consider the right to self determination applies to the trickle skins. and on the question of self determination, the legal advice we have received is actually the trickle. since we're not at all, not a people for me, it's time to move on and see what we can do for the 10 percent committee to return back home. there is no support from the admission high commission effort in united nish. i don't care about chug or send people to what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms race is on, often very dramatic development. only personally,

i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very difficult time. time to sit down and talk a break. a new from nepal, where 72 people have reportedly been killed in a plane crash at the country's international airport. the russian defense ministry says here is preparing a provocation to blow up a large granary and the queues moscow of disrupting the green field. in these weeks tops stories. moscow confirmed, it's military has taken full control of the strategic town of sola dar, in the don. yes. republic after months of rolling battled o.
