My good friend Ronald Huggins shares this important insight. Ronald is a senior at Hillhouse High School.
Ronald Huggins OK SO THIS IS HOW I FEEL: TO MY BLACK COMMUNITY I NEED FOR US TO PLEASE STOP BLAMING THE WHITE MAN(CITY OFFICIALS AND WHITE PEOPLE) FOR ISSUES IN OUR COMMUNITY. THIS IS OUR COMMUNITY AND ITS IN OUR HANDS THE DIRECTION IN WHICH OUR COMMUNITY GOES. WE NEED TO TAKE OUR COMMUNITY BACK AND STOP TALKING ABOUT THE PROBLEM BUT TAKE ACTIONS TO FIX THEM. TALK IS CHEAP BUT ACTION IS EXPENSIVE. WE NEED TO REMEMBER THAT OUR COMMUNITY CAN ONLY BE AS STRONG AS THE PEOPLE IN IT
