“Helping is lobbying local and state officials to implement TANGIBLE change,” a man said, pointing to local elections and passing laws to assist the community. “Donate to local organizations in da city really outside tryna make positive impacts The ‘realist ninjas’ ain’t doing sh*t in the city and dem [ni**as] on already ova wit. The kids and women the only hope fr.”
