      💯 when I was raising my 3 sons in the hood (70's/80's), we had community/rec centers & YMCA... there were a group of Black Men who took them on field trips & mentored them, as well as helped with homework after school, while I was still at work... we even had a small clinic. All the facilities stopped being funded, then crack came & the rec center was turned into a police station. Luckily my boys were already in a good place mentally, from those experiences & escaped the social engineering, towards crime that others fell into.

    • @UpmostTingz
      @UpmostTingz Před rokem +6

    A lot of people don't understand when he says the system remove his father from the home instruction to look like it's just a parental problem but if you extract the job opportunities as well as wages are add a slave labor low is usually natural for the woman to try to get on assistance which will not allow the man to occupy the residence. Which puts pressure on the relationship and give a sense of the man being useless to his family. And in return the government give the woman financial assistance and housing which in return she will soon sing a tune that says love doesn't live here anymore. And then the kids are sadly forgotten and left to support the incarceration camps 🌄🦍

Many wake up after being here a while. Most don't. Pastor Stephen Darby was way ahead of his time.
