(Y2Y) We don't just talk about change, we are in the communities talking to kids about things that they need to be successful in life.

We Need a Revolution!!!

Revolution- Activity or movement designed to effect fundamental changes in the socioeconomic situation.

Athletes never get the proper recognition they deserve for their efforts in giving back to those in need so we at (Y2Y) wanted to recognize some key athletes who are doing their best to help those who really need it.

A Definite Must Read!!! New Poem by Eric Wells entitled "Murder Capital"

Murder Capital


In the city

Marked by the murder capital

Screams pierce my dreams,

And with blood strained side walks

Where insanity consumes the minds of the popularity

Pity?

None is learned, so none is given...

With souls down so low

None have hope in the

Book of "Life Written"

So lives are slain

To gain,

Advancement in the

Social 'pecking order'

"Money, Power, Respect"

In the city...


In The City

marked by the blood money

Young men stolen..

Then transformed and reconfigured

To be brain washed soldiers,

Gorilla warfare for

Leaders in pursuit,

Of oddly shaped rocks..

A heavy stock across seas,

So they hunt, pillage and rape...

Women and young children,

Is nothing safe?....

In the city


In The City

White faces control all

Because, white faces mark

The currency

Racism is taught

And learned by the majority...

Jewelry, Cars, Mansions and designer clothing

Are put in place

To tease the minority

"Surely we can overcome and achieve all that we see?"

To those without sight

Don't see the pun....

It's never equality,

Just hide and peek

Sending your whole life

For their materials you seek...

How many are trapped in?

In The City
