From west Baltimore nothing but respect for the brothers all over DC💪🏾

“America did a number on black people!” I’ve been saying this for years! Great episode though!🔥🔥

[@carlosrob6494]

Yes she did

[@carlosrob6494]

@larryriley22 Poverty stricken minds are easy to manipulate my Brotha. You saying that helps the ones that did that get away. Everything has a start, and not one black person made any drugs to put out to our community in any lab!

[@DavidDuarte-li9rb]

Wait a minute, we had to deal with the riots in 68, the Vietnam War protests and a lot of other nonsense back in the day. In the late 70s if you wanted weed, you would head to 14th & Chapin Street NW. Once you turned 18, you had three options: get a job and a crib, go to college, or go into the military. The only thing the drug game did in the 80s was get folks strung out and stack bodies. Nothing glamorous about that time or that life. We had a chance to make something of DC or Chocolate City, if you will, and we blew it, plain and simple. There is no going back because other folks have moved in and are taking over. That's the result of all the foolishness that went down 40 years ago. I grew up in Southeast and North West as a kid so I saw both sides of DC. The drug game destroyed any chance of taking DC to where it should have been for us. I'm 62 now and all I can do is shake my head.

Brother "Big E," I commend this brother highly for sharing knowledge. This brother gave me a book in Lorton on the (Hill) Central Facility that enlighten me about my religion at the time...Islam. that meant a lot to the life decisions I had to make, thanks brother 🤝

[@willf.5608]

When I was young, I used to live on 9th and LST.a few blocks away from Orleans Place. My grandfather owned that house from the 1940s to the Late 90s. Just curious but how old is "Yo" now ?

The devil is always in the details. Sin has messed us all up. We need Jesus Christ to redeem us so our name will be in the Book of Life.

Is that Big E from Section 8 Mob?

[@LindaLatimer-o2y]

It’s crazy that Boosie went so hard after someone stole from him but he use to steal. He stole my Marc Jacob’s sunglasses out of my car and some other things out of my home. I didn’t even know this had happened but I’m so happy that he is where he is supposed to be! And RIP to all of the victims!

DC and New York is nothing alike go somewhere else with that lol

[@davidwashington9928]

I understand NYC's egoistical position being the epicenter of fashion. However, with DC being (MBMC)...1957, AKA.. Chocolate City! We have our pride too. Being a Central Black Culture, Power and identity we remain a significant force. That's the underlying 'clash of the Titans. Also, plus them NEW BALANCE 👍
