Indian giver, someone gives you something and they want it back. The part of that definition were missing is because its theirs. [ laughter ] what did you say . European giver. European giver. We have a winner. There we go, everybody. [ applause ] for now on, thats what you say. Take that home for thanksgiving, everybody. [ laughter ] sitting there with your family. I got something for you this year. [ laughter ] im going to ruin the holiday. [ laughter ] my name is w. Kamau bell. As a comedian, ive made a living finding humor in the parts of america i dont understand, and now im challenging myself to dig deeper. Im on a mission to reach out and experience all the cultures and beliefs that add color to this crazy country. This is the united shades of america. Bo americas original sin, im thinking about slavery. But if im honest, americans started screwing up before that. Before america had a name, the cake was already being baked, Christopher Columbus landed in the caribbean and said, hello, indians. And the people said, nope, youre way west of india, pal. Instead of columbus saying, what should i call you, he said, hello, west indians. The treatment of the Indigenous People of this country is a story of massacres, sexual assault, serial lies and betrayals that were all wiped from the pages of American History books by two words. Happy thanksgiving. But in the last year, a movement has emerged that began as a dispute between the Standing Rock reservation in north dakota and the oil industry. And it has turned into a reckoning. On one side there are over 300 tribes from all over the country in the world and on the other side theres big oil, the federal government, and the indifference of millions of americans. Yep, while millions of people were screaming no dap l, millions of others were screaming for this guy. Look, im not a cubs fan, but im sure happy that their win meant more of this and less of this. Yikes. Thats why this week im going to the Standing Rock and Pine Ridge Reservations and ill be starting my journey here at the camp site. Just outside of bismarck, north dakota, a few lines from the front lines of the demonstrations. Most times i go places where im like one of the few black people, i feel much like im the only black person. Here i just feel like im not native american. Its not about my blackness, its about my lack of indigenous status. Just hoping im not intruding and hoping youre not intruding. [ laughter ] they would say, thank you for your struggle. Thank you for saying thank you for saving everything, the beauty of mother earth. Now, in case you havent been paying attention, a company, etp, is creating a pipeline to take oil from north dakota to illinois. When they first got permits for construction, the pipeline was going through here. But the u. S. Core of engineers scrapped that plan, citing among other things, the proximity of water supply from business mark. Apparently it wasnt a problem to reroute it through here, lands which the u. S. Government said they owned. But owned isnt really the right term. Per the treaty of 1851, the sioux indians own it, but uncle sam broke the treaty and many more through the years because thats what he does. And modern courts wont give it back. Regardless, they are saying they dont want the pipeline close to them because of the same reason the u. S. Army corps of engineers scrapped the original plan. It goes through their main water supply and also pipelines have a long history of doing things like this. Water is supposed to be available. A lot of people who heard about this, i think they have an idea this is specifically native american issue. No, its not. This is a global issue that were speaking of. It really comes to looking at it, we live in a very small world and we need to keep our water clean for everybody. So, how long do you think this is going to go on . Till the black snake is dead. Thats poetic and hard core, till the black snake is dead. Yvonne, how did you come to be here today . I came to be here because it affects my kids. Im sorry. Thats okay. I worry about them. I worry about their kids. Can i give you a hug . [ laughter ] thank you very much. The emotions you see here are real because despite how it is portrayed, it is a life and death situation. Dan. Dance, nice to meet you. My real name, a little bit of tongue twister. For those of us who are not from these parts. What made you decide to come here . I came here is to stand for our treaties, stand with the treaties, stand with the people, stand for the land and water, protect it because, you know, this is allowed, permitted to happen. Who says it wont stop here . If dan sounds paranoid, oh, he aint. Because even though the constitution of the United States clearly says that treaties are the supreme law of the land, uncle sam has made and broken over 100 treaties with natives taking land and cheating them in every conceivable way. My personal favorite example happened in 1829 when president jackson promised natives their new land would be protected as long as grass grows or water runs. But guess what . Once they found gold in them thar hills, the grass stopped growing and the water stopped running. Tell me about the context of native americans and, you know, america historically. Historically, 1978 was the first time that in the United States they permitted us to do our ceremonies. For a while when they started these reservations, that was outlawed. Really, arent reservations you werent allowed to do your ceremonies . We couldnt do. So, this has been a real hard struggle the people have had to learn their identity. Yep, you heard it right. Natives werent protected under the First Amendment on their reservations until the disco era, which means man had walked on the moon and on the hustle before natives were able to pray on their own lands. Dan, are you leading me to believe that the government of this country and maybe even the white people who run this country were trying to make your race feel inferior to their race . Because that sounds familiar to we know what were talking about. Thats right, brother. And what do you think it was the future for native americans in this country, how do you see it . Really right now, its a reawakening of our warrior spirit, our people, the face, the black snake, whatever is going to come at us in the next few days, few weeks, few months. Im dressed in the finest, and then one day, if i have to make that stand, you know, with my life, i want to go with the best. Well, i clearly did not dress up in my finest. So, today is my final day, its going to look quite sloppy. Thank you for standing next to me. Youre making me look better by standing next to you, so i appreciate that. I appreciate that. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, thank you. Cologuard colon Cancer Screening for people 50 and older at average risk. Ive heard a lot of excuses to avoid screening for colon cancer. Im not worried.

[ laughter ] after standing next to dan who was in full ra gayle i cant, i was like, i need to start dressing better. If he dies, he goes outlook being like a warrior. If i die, i look like a substitute p. E. Teacher. [ laughter ] being here at Standing Rock, its hard not to feel all the feels. Anger, inspiration, resignation, craving froyo, the kind where you pick your own topping, shaved coconut. Im sorry, im off topic. I know one of the keys to learning about people is dismantling the stereo types about those people. Im going to talk to an attorney for the ajibwe tribe and founder of not your mascot. Org and also with senator bernie sanders. She can help me debunk misconceptions about indian native that should be my first question. What should i say . What is the right thing for people to say who are not native to this land . I think the safest thing to say would be native or indigenous. So not native american . Some folks have an issue with being called americans because that citizenship was forced upon native people. Okay, thats good to know. Those of us who are not indigenous to the land like the idea of casinos and especially black people feel like why cant we get casinos . It sounds like a dream. It sounds like something where you think of all that money going in and the money coming out. Casinos arent all theyre cracked up to be. Its not like it just made every native american a really, really rich person. Instead, you know or even not a poor person. Not a poor person. There are some very, very wealthy tribes that have been fortunately their reservations were located next to urban centers. But for the most part, were living were in north dakota right now, right . Yeah. Your casinos in north dakota are sort of like mostly dealing with people who live there already. Dealing with communities of low wealth. So, most casino operations are humble economically. Of the 562 tribes in the u. S. , only 223 even have casinos. And of those, only 73 actually pay tribe members. While a few casinos like the one outside minneapolis pay members upwards of 84,000 a month, most are barely even profitable, like the nearby prairie one casino which if they even paid each member of the tribe, it would be around ten bucks a month. I know you worked deep in the movements to eliminate native mascots. A lot of focus gets put on the washington football team, you feel the same way about the cleveland baseball team. Can you imagine a team called the asians or African Americans . It would never happen. No. It has been clinically shown it harms the native american youth. It increases the likelihood they are going to adopt those stereo types. People get so used to these logos and mascots they forget how offensive they are. Unless you flip the script. In early 2016, espn jones went on tv with this shirt on. Not that different than the cleveland logo. Naturally, some white folks went crazy. Saying that the shirt was racist. But the other logo, thats just my team, man. I, of course, brought one for every member of my family. Dehumanization of a people is systemic and it leads to so many other problems. If people arent viewed as real people, its a lot easier to treat them really badly. Another place where natives are dehumanized is the rate of sexual assaults that take place on reservations. 70 pbz 70 of rain offenders are nonnative. Thats made even worse by the fact that tribal courts have a lessened jurisdiction over nonnative offenders. The violence against women acts is a piece of legislation that gave back some of that jurisdiction that had been stripped from tribes. But it was fought against by lots of members of congress. I remember hearing, if this law happens, every white male in america should be terrified to step onto a reservation. And the response, this woman stood up and said, then dont rape nick anybody. Thats all were saying. Dont hurt people and youre fine. Yeah. What are we going to do in this country if the white man doesnt feel comfortable . One thing thats always hard, you dont want to be the downer, right . When youre like the one native person, you dont want to be the downer all the time. Yeah. I constantly have to correct people all the time. It becomes a little bit exhausting. It happens to me as a black person. Hold on one second. Yeah, yeah. To be that person always got your finger up. Hold on all the seconds. We do not do that, please. I had one final question for tara. Actually it was a confession. Its about to get awkward. A lot of people like to have fun with the quoteunquote native names. A guy who works on the show always eats two lunches. Someone may have called him ron two lunches, which we immediately all had a discussion about like we shouldnt say that, especially here. Humor is actually part of native culture. And when you are very, very oppressed people, having a sense of humor is pretty important. Okay, all right. I still feel sorry. Sorry, ron, for calling you ron two lunches. Since most people only get their images from tv and film, i want to talk to someone from tv and film. Luckily actor adam beach who was in the movie suicide squad is here at the protest. Adam is one of the better known native actors and he uses his stature to raise awareness for indigenous causes, and, hes kind of dreamy. Talk to me about your career a little bit. You made very particular choices. I feel like youre clearly trying to make choices that help up lift your race and certainly dont put down your race. You know, i find my choices in my work has to come with the respect of who im portraying. So, when i did wind talkers with nick cage, theyre like, oh, adam, wed love for you to come and read for this role. We think youd be great. I told them they have to ask permission from the Navajo Nation before i could even come in the room. They thought i was crazy. [ laughter ] what . You have to ask permission from who . Yeah. Are they your agent . Exactly. They phoned back and said we talked to the Navajo Nation and they said, yes, adam can portray the role, but you have to hire a real navajo person for the other role. Okay. So, they had to follow lead since they wanted me to play the role. Im pretty lucky to be the hollywood indian. [ laughter ] normally when you say somebody is hollywood, youre saying theyre fake. There doesnt seem to be anything fake about your indian status. When im in hollywood, they want to see that, hahaha or whatever they call it. But they dont want to see, you know, us now. Its like thats the mentality thats out there and we have to change it, you know. Yeah, yeah. They like us in the 1800s. Wow, they like us in the 1800s. Yeah. They like us in the 1800s, too. [ laughter ] i feel like if we play oppression poker, i dont feel like the black man that stands up to the native. Were even. I gotcha. This one i feel like, no, ill move along. I dont want to go full on that one. Thank you, bro, appreciate it. Here, it all starts with a simple. Hello hi how can i help . A data plan for everyone. Everyone . Everyone. Lets send to everyone [ camera clicking ] wifi up there . Ahhh. Sure, why not . Howd he get out . a camera might figure it out. That was easy glad i could help. At xfinity, were here to make life simple. Easy. Awesome. So come ask, shop, discover at your xfinity store today. The time ive spent at the Standing Rock camp has been enlightening. I want to find out what life is actually like on a reservation. The dam at the pine ridge in south dakota, if youre not up to date on your ethnic cleansing, reservations were reserved for native americans when the europeans took the rest of north america. Those of you who we havent killed yet can live here. Originally they were supposed to be independent nations within the u. S. But theyre ultimately under the control of the federal government. Not surprisingly, this long history of being screwed over has led to dire conditions. 97 of the people here live below the poverty line, and the average Household Income is less than 3500 bucks a year. And while not all reservations are dry, on pine ridge alcohol is illegal. But even with these restrictions, 75 of adults here still suffer from alcoholism. And meth use is higher for natives than any other group in the country. Add to that a chronically under funded police force and youve got what would be one of the poorest countries in the world if it was actually an independent nation. And this is all happening smackdab in the middle of the selfproclaimed greatest country on earth. Kamau. Sicily. Nice to meet you. Sit down over there. Kamau. Nice to meet you. You have a house full. I see there are a few kids here. How many kids are in this house . Theres three ashanti, toby, terrence, trey son, tal an, you. You that one. Ive never spent any time on a reservation. This is my first time. What do people get wrong about it . Most of the time they think we live in teepees, and we dont have televisions, phone. Whats it like living here in pine ridge . Hard. The way you want to live with it and the people you keep around you, other than that it can end up pretty rugged. Tell me what you love about living here. This is my family. This is my people here, man. Is that the order, horse, family, people . Most of the time. My family is my main thing. What do you love about living here . More about the traditions, ceremonies and all that. My boys go around and they have real long hair because thats how we grew up. What job do you people have here if you live in this town . A flagger. Stand on the road all day. And that comes through now and then. I havent found too much work down here. Got to be hard to avoid criminal activity or drugs and alcohol because there is not a lot going on. It gets boring. Yeah. With alcohol, is it hard, the fact its illegal here and across the border its hard because its not going to stop. Do you think making it legal would make it less tempting . Im not sure. Youre not sure . Man, im totally against it. Really . Yeah. Why is that . I would be totally against it because id rather teach my kids that thats not the way. They see it in everyday life with one of their aunties. They know thats not the way they want. They have hard feelings of alcohol, too. Alcohol on the Pine Ridge Reservation is a complex issue. In 2013, tribal members narrowly voted to end the generations long prohibition on alcohol hoping to use the sales taxes to improve the community. But many people felt as sicily does legalization would lead to worse abuse. They tied the new law up in court. If you could change something there is talk maybe breaking up the reservations, you wouldnt want to do that . No, i wouldnt want to break up the rez. Then everyone would be lost again. Were a whole different breed. We are. Were not black, were not white. Were a whole different breed of lakota people. Its good to be an indian person, i love it. We have to make it better from the inside out. We can clean it up. Its possible. Sounds like its important to you. You want to make the Community Stronger for this generation. Thats what everybody wants. We cant stop whats going on now, but we can make it better. For them. Yeah. Whats noticeable about pine ridge is it has a lot of the same things many poor communities have around the country, unemployment, drugs, and crime. But unlike a lot of those communities who just want good cops, it seems here the problem is not enough cops. To find out what its like to police a reservation, i want to talk to mark, the pine ridge chief of police. Thank you for talking with me today. I appreciate it. Youre welcome. First of all, one of the things that people who do not spend time on reservations hear about is they hear about high crime rate. Do you feel like there is an especially high crime rate . Here in pine ridge its just a steady stream, you know. Assaults, you know, rapes, more drugs coming in. Do you feel like you have enough officers . You just answered my question. They say we should have anywhere between 150 to 170 Law Enforcement officers. How many do you have . We have 33. 33 . 33. And were covering over 3 million acres. Wow. You heard right, there are 33 officers to patrol an area thats three times the size of rhode island. And with the amount of crime on the reservation, thats nowhere near enough. In 2015, these 33 officers fielded 95,000 calls from a population of 30,000 people. Thats an average of 260 calls a day at the precinct. Come on, there are more than 33 cops at a taylor swift concert. Those swifties get rowdy. Here on the reservation, alcohol is not allowed. Its against the law, so, a good majority of our arrests are alcohol related. I just think it has to be pretty difficult with, you know, nebraska out here, its not that far from here where alcohol is legal. From where we sit now, theres the nebraska state line on the other side of that stop sign. Our jail is directly behind you back here. Why did you put the jail so close to the escape route . Well it was before my time. Before your time. Seems like we should put the jail a little further away from the next jurisdiction. So, i was in there talking to the chief of police about how if Inmates Escape from the prison, which is right over there, and they manage to escape and cross the fence into nebraska, theyre in a totally different jurisdiction, they cant go get them. I had a good idea we check out that fence. Lets go. Bam there it is. Thats the fence. Its not going to take a criminal master mind to get over this fence. In fact, watch this. Freedom now, time to explore undiscovered territory. Only in america can a white person go to a professional Football Game wearing a racist logo on their shirt while they watch a game where black dudes mostly play the game in a stadium that was built by undocumented mexicans. [ laughter ] while they eat a polish sausage with canadian bacon on it. While outside native people protest what is going on inside the stadium and the white people are mad, how come that black guy isnt standing for the anthem . I dont understand that. This is nonsense. [ applause ] over the past few days, ive seen and experienced a lot of the problems facing our native people. I mean, even the police here are victims of the man. When im hoping to find are some solutions, so im meeting with the man who found success off the reservation, but decided to move back home to help his people. His name is chase iron eyes. Hes an activist and a lawyer. And if anyone can help me see solutions to the problems, im thinking its him. There is a reputation that reservations have as being places where the crime is high and the drug use is high. It does not sound like places from the outside you would want to bring your family to. Tribal nations have a history of being disempowered, having their economic models destroyed. We were emasculated as warrior people. We had a tough time. You can still see that. My grandfather was born in 1900 so its not like ancient history, you know what i mean . Yeah, yeah, yeah. This is real talk. My grandmother went to a boarding school where her hair was cut and she was beaten and scolded for speaking her native tongue. This is my mother, and her mother as well. I know what youre thinking. Arent boarding schools where rich people send kids they dont want to Pay Attention to any more so they can learn how to be even more rich . Usually, but the boarding schools that uncle sam forced many natives go to were much worse. Since the 1870s over 100,000 native children often taken from their families by force were brought to so scald indian boarding schools across 15 states. The model for these institutions was the Carlisle Industrial School in pennsylvania. Started by Richard Henry pratt. His Mission Statement for carlisle, all the indian there is in the race should be dead. Kill the indian in him and save the man. Imagine having that on your school bumper sticker. And he stuck to his mission, by any means necessary. At these schools children were often beaten severely for things like speaking in their native language and wearing traditional clothes. Conditions were so bad that thousands of children died from malnutrition, disease, physical abuse, and emotional trauma. And just in case you think this happened a long time ago, this was going on, in part, up until the 1960s when teachers still felt their role was to civilize, not educate, the native youth in these schools. What do you think is the big issues that are stopping more Economic Development, more jobs on the reservation . Part of it is that indians dont own their own land, you know what i mean . The federal government holds this land in trust for the benefit of indian use rights, which is a clever way of saying, indians cant really own the land. They can use the land. So, if i wanted to build a house, own this land were standing on, if i wanted to develop it, if i wanted to put like a resort here, build my own house here, i have to get the permission of the agent of the United States government. Oh, wow. To even collateralize it or to borrow money against it or to do anything that, you know, any Economic Development which is facilitated anywhere else in the world. Thats why theres no private Housing Developments here. We moved from a 3,000 square foot, you know, five bedroom three bathroom to us it was a mansion. You know what im saying . Yeah. It was the first time we ever moved on up like the jeffersons. And then we moved to now we live in an 1100 square foot three bedroom one bathroom house. And theres me, my wife and three kids. Because theres no private Housing Development here. If feels like im on an island. It feels like right now im on some sort of separate part of the world in another country. Yes. All of that stuff is real. But what else is real here is just an undeniable hope, even like an unconquerable dignity, you know what i mean . Like were still here. Native people are still here and were survivors and really we were trying to turn us around. Everybody is trying to do that here. The sleep number 360 smart bed. Can it help keep me asleep . Yes, it senses your movements and automatically adjusts to keep you both comfortable. So, you can really promise better sleep . Not promise, prove. Sleep number. This is not a bed its proven quality sleep. From 999. Walking around the reservation, its easy to see that this is just like any other community in america. There are good parts and bad parts. And no matter where youre from, the pull of home is real. Bree ann is someone who moved away for school in southern california, but then moved back. Did you ever think after you were going to school she would maybe i mean, l. A. Is right there. Did you ever think, ill move to yeah. And sort of live a different life than the reservation life . Was there ever a temptation to do that yeah, and i think a of a lot of kids that dont know their place yet or are still constantly being told all the negatives about the reservation, i guess, and they move away from home. People say were dirty and were all drunks, were all drug addicts, all of this stuff. None of us have jobs. I mean, you know, i grew up, my parents werent alcoholics or anything. They worked very hard. So, talk about life on the reservation because thats something that people like myself who dont live on a reservation just hear about. This is my first time on a reservation. Is it really . Yeah. I think ive driven around, sort of like, but ive never been in a home or certainly dont want to be, you know, like the white man and just walk up and start looking around. [ laughter ] thats a nice house. I think ill take it, yeah. I think ill take it. Yeah. So, what is life like on the reservation . Truthfully, this is again me personally, i am a fulltime student at college. I have my kids all the time. So, when im not at school or not in class or not studying, you know, im here with the kids and were doing whatever it is we do here. But there is a lot of good happening here. For example, the pipeline stuff has made natives who maybe werent so proud of who they were proud to be native american. I mean, its really amazing what the camp has done and im really excited to be working with some other females from this community to kind of translate whats happening out there and into our communities and keep it going is . Yes, keep it positive, keep moving forward all the time. I wouldnt want to live anywhere else. I cant talk you into l. A. . I cant sell you some property in l. A. . No, not right now i dont think. [ laughter ] hollywood and vine where everything is happening . Where everything is happening. Theres a lot happening here. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you very much. As im nearing the end of my time in the dakotas i want to head back to where i started, the protest site at Standing Rock. Im going to visit with my friend activist and his friend comedian tito. First its time for our favorite segment, awkward questions with w. Kamau bell. Whats up, man . Good to see you. Good to see you, too. So, this is better than a tent that you buy like at a store. Right. You can have a fire in there. You cant have a fire in a regular old tent. And why cant you have a fire in a regular tent . Because its made of plastic and it will burn up. Oh, thank you. I dont camp a lot. Ideally buffalo robes, you could hang buffalo robes in it and that could survive negative 40 degree weather. Its going to be cold like that shortly. Yeah. Youll be able to survive in this . No. Ideally youd survive in it, but this is not the buffalo hyde teepee i could survive in negative 40 degree weather. What are you going to do . Theres a hotel up the road. Im so focused on the old ways, i forget there are new ways. We live in both worlds. We walk two paths. [ laughter ] despite my painful ignorance, ive been invited into the teepee for a fire side chat with the guys and their friend tabitha. Thank you for inviting me into the teepee. Tabatha, nice to meet you. Nice to meet you. In the background i can hear drumming and chanting. Theyre ceremonial songs, particular songs. I can tell the difference. Its beautiful. People talk about other tribes coming together to fight against the pipeline, but it also seems like a moment is being seized. Women are pacing themselves back in their role. You know, our people, matriarchal people. We learned how to be a male dominated society. We adopted those, too. Our women were pushed to the back burner. That wasnt our way. Theyre also leading us, leading us back to where were supposed to be. You said women are taking their role back. I was like, what is he about to say . Normally in American Society when you say women are finally knowing their role, it doesnt usually mean in the front. Males tell us so many times it is the women that are going to lead us out of this, out of this darkness. I feel like black people are acknowledging the power of our women through black lives matter. A transformative moment happening for us, and a moment started by three black women. Us men are shocked. [ laughter ] dudes have totally [ bleep ] this up. Thank you. Thank you for saying that. We had a good run, dudes. Lets get in the back seat for a little while. Yeah. So, youre hopeful for the future . We have been traumatized for so long that we need a space to feel that part because really we are the descendants of our strongest ancestors that with stood everything and to remember that is beautiful. The descendants of our strongest ancestors, i like that. People dont normally think about it like that. I feel as natives you get associated with stereotypical behavior. Then we have a lot of money. We drive nice cars. Were really, really good looking. Yeah, yeah. You all got casino money. Yeah, like somebody might make fun of you that you might live in a tepee. Its like black people and watermelon. I dont want you yelling at me for it or making fun of me for it but its also delicious. I was think, what if somebody does come up and ask me if i still live in a tepee . Im going to have to say, well, you ignorant stereotypical, racist of course, i live in a tepee. How dare you assume that i live in a tepee. But if you want to come over, ill show it to you. One or two clicks and everything was up and running. I was printing out labels and saving money. Shipstation saves us so much time. It makes it really easy and seamless. Pick an order, print everything you need, slap the label onto the box, and its ready to go. Our costs for shipping were cut in half. Just like that. Shipstation. The 1 choice of online sellers. Go to shipstation. Com tv and get 2 months free. Shipstation. The 1 choice of online sellers.

So come ask, shop, discover at your xfinity store today. Its our last night in pine ridge. And just as we were about to head up to town, a friend said there was a family we should talk to. They have just come from a candle light vigil for their son vinnie. Hed been murdered by a nonnative gang from off the reservation from only a few days before. I was nervous and honored to be invited to their home while they were clearly still mourning. Thank you for letting us come to your home on this occasion. It seems everyone here has come together to celebrate and try to mourn together. Is that whats happening . Thats what happens with our people. We come together at times like this. People know what a great guy he is, what a big heart he had. He loved everybody. And this just happened recently . Sunday. At a basketball tournament. At a basketball tournament . At a basketball tournament with kids all over. Known as a great basketball player. Maybe one of the best ball handlers around. Even in the country. Yeah, yeah.

Had this drug on his back, which was addiction and then got caught up with whatever is around here. People bringing stuff in and infiltrating the reservation with these drugs and trying to so its what its really doing is destroying our reservation. We have enough problems as it is already. But they take a poverty stricken areas because they know its easy to get people corrupted and to use them. And thats what happened. They used him and then killed him. And so how hard is it for young people to pull away from this life here . I mean, it seems like its extremely hard. Its like, dad, theres no jobs around here. No jobs, or 80 unemployment here.

So many. So much wasted talent. What do you think should be done here so that theres not more young people like your son who get caught up .
