Does my theory hold any weight? Have women started a
conversation about leaving the drug dealer alone? Having a
stable relationship usually means picking someone who will be
around long enough to grow with you, have a family, etc. These
boys here in B-more are dying particular between 12 and 18
years of age...I won't touch the brothers that are jailed.
Those numbers are heartbreaking. I guess I saying we (men)
can't do this alone - meaning turning our community around.
For all of our MLKs and Malcolm Xs, it was the women who did
the real work...it's you everytime...doing the work but not
getting the credit. What if women set the agenda this time and
led the movement?
