    If an individual lives in an immoral or ruthless community, they are subjected to immoral and ruthless actions. One may think a community is just a place where one resides but it is much bigger than that, it’s a second family. It was stated that “The basketball court is a strange patch of neutral ground, a meeting place for every element of a neighborhood cohort of young men…We were all enclosed by the same fence, bumping into one another, fighting, celebrating. Showing one another our best and worst, revealing ourselves—even our cruelty and crimes—as if that fence had created a circle of trust. A brotherhood” (pg.45). The streets can teach one various life skills that a parent cannot, especially in a rough neighborhood in the heart of Maryland. The author Wes and his family moved into his grandparents’ home and the same rules that applied to his mother applied to him. “… My grandparents figured if these rules had helped their children successfully navigate the world, they would work on their grandkids too” (pg.42) states the author Wes as he discussed how he had to be in before the street light would come on.

Not saying the other Wes’…
