The neighborhood of Englewood on Chicago's South Side is among the most dangerous in the country. There, gun violence is a daily occurrence. But this isn't a story about shootings. This is about a group of mothers who are standing up to the violence with the type of stern love only moms can provide. By keeping their eyes on the street, feeding their neighbors and embracing their community (both literally and figuratively), Mothers Against Senseless Killings are making Englewood safer, one day at a time.

This is the kind of movement I can get behind. Stuff like this proves that it is better to be loved than feared.

I don't know if the narrator/organizer (or any of the Moms for that matter) sees this comment, but her story was truly touching and inspiring. What a bunch of brave people, and I applaud you - ALL of YOU (Army of Moms)! Great job! Great story! All the (bad) stories in Chicago (anywhere!) are just unbelievable and just shocking. Still. Today. And, I love the hot dogs/gathering y'all had, and your message.

Now this is good and all, and is a step in the right direction but we also need the men to step up, especially the Fathers.

Definitely. Focus on the REAL threat to Black lives. No Blacks want to admit.

I think this would be a wonderful opportunity to pause for a moment and give thanks for the many great contributions of the black community and their culture to our society. Their peaceful and generous nature makes them ideal neighbors, lending testimony to their exceptional family values and parenting skills unrivaled by any other culture. Their commitment to academic excellence enriches our schools and serves as an example to all who hope to achieve prominence as a people. Real estate values are fueled by the influx of African-Americans into an area due to their caring and respectful nurturing of these communities, an example of all they have achieved by their enthusiasm for self-improvement through hard work and self-reliant can do nature. Without their industrious and creative drive we would be poorer as a nation.

This is what BLM doesn't recognize: A community of people must work on itself internally, before branching out of itself for improvement. This lady should be the absolute role model for black people who want violence to stop, or at the very least, decrease, in their culture and/or community. This is what Martin Luther King Jr. worked for and would want to see if he were still alive,
