How Can I Make a Change?

  Darrien Brown As I explained in my previous blog post, crime is a very disturbing issue in America, especially gun violence in the black community. Gun violence has caused a lot of pain and problems for people and families all over the country and as time goes on, I feel as people are becoming okay with it or expectant of it unfortunately. An article from Gifford’s Law Center states, “ In 2022, one in every 67 Black men ages 18 to 24 in Philadelphia were killed or injured in gun homicides or shootings. In Rochester, New York, it was one in 50 young Black men. In Cincinnati, it was one in 44 young Black men” (Nguyen). Looking at these numbers just imagine being at a family reunion and knowing that by the time everybody leaves, 1 or 2 people you know will be dead due to the absurd gun violence. Giffords Law Center provides another fact that says, “Black Americans die from gun violence at 2.6 times the rate of white Americans. On average, nearly 12,700 Black people die from gun viol...

Is Crime Good?

Darrien Brown Crime has been a very disturbing issue in America for as long as anybody could remember, especially gun violence. Gun violence in America is a serious and ongoing problem that includes shootings, homicides, and suicides. Over the past few years, incidents like mass shootings and black on black violence have increased, leading to widespread concern and discussions about solutions. I’ve personally experienced and seen gun violence since a child, sadly seeing my friends and family pass away due to it. I don’t mean losing people that are gang-banging or in the streets but innocent lives taken from people that don’t even own guns! My first experience with gun-violence and black on black crime, was when I was 7 years old I lost my uncle, who was only 19, to gun violence. Minding his business, chilling on the porch, one of my uncle’s old friends tried to come and rob him and my uncle died in a robbery gone wrong due to senseless gun violence and black on black crime. Unfortunate...

How is this ‘5 Star’ Enjoying College?

Image
Darrien Brown At just 18 years old, Le’Taevion East is stepping into a new and exciting chapter of his life: his first year of college. A talented basketball player from Kansas City, Tae is balancing the thrill of pursuing his passion for basketball with the challenges of adjusting to life away from home for the first time. While his focus is on the court, the reality of leaving behind his family and hometown is setting in as he navigates this transition. Tae’s decision to attend college wasn’t solely based on athletics. Growing up, he was always encouraged to pursue higher education by his family, especially his mother, who stressed the importance of a college degree. “My mom has always said, ‘Basketball won’t last forever, but your education will,’” Tae shared. It’s advice that has stayed with him as he adjusts to the demands of both college coursework and a tough basketball schedule. However, being away from home is proving to be a new emotional challenge for Tae, but nothing he can...
