Indeed my brother. Ras Tre is doing some good things with the Afrikan youth in Baltimore. It has been an eye opening experience for many of them; opening their eyes to the fact that they need to get out of this wasteland and get to the right side of the ocean. I'm not that far from Baltimore, but I will already have returned home to Mama Afrika by the time this event happens
