Being born and raised in the 37208 (24th Ave) I see this 1st hand. Thank God I was able to escape alot of the violence and bs but all my friends are dead or have been to prison or currently in prison doing life...a change must come seriously.
I stumbled on this and watched every morsel of DNA it took to create this. Thank you to the directors and producers. I am a freelancer and this gives me hope that Fiverr is even more important than ever. I am crying now and sending this to everyone who needs to know.
I want to thank you for showing the world the environment we see on a daily basis. I was proud to learn the history of this zip code and it felt good to see all representation of it. I was also excited to see two of my own children featured. It made me proud that they were able to be represented well. Keep up the GREAT work!
“What it is to love on ourselves and extend that love” that is the key and mindset to create change. Sadly this is the story of many Black communities in this country. On purpose and by brutal and nasty design. I taught a Social Graces class at J T Moore where Lamar was a student. He would peek in my class and ask me questions about how to live better and wanted me to meet his mom. She and I met, talked and lunched together. Lamar protected so many students and was the sweetest! I cried listening to his teacher. Change requires action. Gideon’s Army is part of the beauty of new beginnings. We are one.
Genuine question, if there were tax provisions/exceptions for (a) low income or (b) occupants who have lived in the area for certain amounts of time, would that help fix gentrification?
I was born and raised in Flint, MI, and we've always had an unlikely connection with Nashville, through art, culture and simply a common plight. For my entire life, I've never understood why people don't understand.. A chain is only as strong as its weakest link. That's why Jesus made it so clear that we should focus our attention on supporting the poorest, most disenfranchised members of our society. “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’" - Matthew 25:40
Don't know how I stopmed onto this. All in all Awesome clip ❤️. I also have been watching those similar from mStarTutorials and kinda wonder how you guys make these vids. MSTAR TUTORIALS also had cool information about similiar things on his channel.
