You should have seen it. The three of them were sitting on the steps and dark skinned shorty just walked up barely able to lift that cannon and unloaded. The block exploded with fear and fireworks and then quickly settled back into their routine. The nightmare has passed and now they can bring back the dream.

His face was scarred and beaten and he knew he couldn't take the daily ritual hazing of having to walk home from school with no other choice than to pass by those same steps of those people that would bring him down until he had no future left but the one they gave him. 

They have mastered the art of property because slaves dont want to be free, they want to be masters.

Elisa was 17 and her stomach outmeasured her waist. That baby would be due any day now and she could see the options diminishing. She wanted to settle out of this life and may have to settle in. Her baby was fatherless or easier said that her baby was fathered and he saw responsibility and could not see it for the blessing that it really was. He was hope and when he left, she was hopeless.

She settled into this life.

These are two stories but the real tragedy is that they both happened on your watch.
