“Niggas just need to really just stay in school and shit, man. For real,” Gibbs said. “Really set they self on a path [for that] education. And just educating themselves at all times and being more aware. And stop going to jail. It’s too many mothafuckas going to jail, man. Especially black men. We gotta figure out how to maneuver through the law and all that shit, man. Raise our families the correct way and things of that nature cause it’s a lot of shit that’s fucked up for black youth. And that’s because we not that many generations removed from slavery…We just gotta rise up on some real shit and just stay informed and be aware.”
