“A lot of our Black males are in jail. But our community, with so much negativity and so much violence that’s going on, we feel like that we encaged, like we behind bars, even in our community. It’s a blurred picture of Lawndale because everything that goes on outside of Lawndale—the murder, the killing, the shooting—is outweighing all this good stuff that’s going on on Ogden.
Community behind bars…we need to break loose of this.”
-John Smith
