    As an unmarried Black woman from Chicago, I find this absolutely absurd. Beautiful Black men hanging out on the block at night when they should be home eating dinner with their wife, helping their children with their homework or as a single man simply preparing for his future. I understand that its what some of us experienced. The hand we were dealt. But at a certain age that foolishness goes out the window. Smart brothers wasting time. The application of knowledge is power.

      And u need to be doing the same thing instead of making comments about these guys u don't know...immigrants being officers without green cards. Stop judging what if they was bums guess u got something to say about bums to. Look at yourself first, I guess your husband doing alot better. If u got a problem don't watch it, And maybe if alot of these 304'$,thots etc act and live life as mature women then maybe we can have some peace to go home to instead of boss independent hot girl summers and nem

      ...yes indeed, even tho I didn't grow up there, I was raised in ida b wells, majority of the people I hung with I found out are either dead or in jail. My parents made sure I went to the best schools, and never wanted for anything. If we were struggling, I had no idea, they made sure I didn't know it or suffer, never missed a meal, I was very well taken care of all while living in the projects. Grew up and doing pretty well for myself.

      Having the urge to leave and being able to actually mobilize yourself to leave are 2 diff things.
      There’s a level of trauma that you acquire from living in a place like this.
      I would say a person who has witnessed a single murder or rape…it would be enough to send them over the edge. Now imagine years, decades of witnessing repeated murder, rape, assault, etc…you can’t just nestle yourself into society and get yourself “together” after that. Most of them acquired charges before they were old enough to understand the magnitude of said charges, most of them acquired trauma generations before they were even born.

    To anyone who's watching this video this place Cabrini Green was torn down years ago these are row houses. These guys grew up with your grandmothers these row houses were for the old ladies and all the old people who live in the Cabrini Green before they were torn down. This section is located amongst one of the richest areas in Chicago, which is downtown Chicago there are million condos in this area. Don't believe the hype. This is not the Cabrini Green of old.

    The saddest part about this whole scenario is the use of 'in the trenches'. A year in the trenches for real would make men of these gangsters. While so many of these videos show how the newer generations are trying to improve the area and themselves, the perspective of these was just depressing, not negative, but full of hopelessness. In 10 years, they'll be standing in the same spot saying the same things. They don't look willing to learn so they'll never change! And somehow they think they are 'winning the game!'
