people should not define you on your situation whether you live in the public housing or you are black or hispanic, and people should not define you based on the concept of character and the way you act, soo it it is a li bit of both, so i feel like i have to prove myself to leave a greater impression. we will come back with the three young men, and with nicole poulte bell. don t go away. turn left.
