    "I don’t feel safe in this neighborhood and I wouldn’t let my kids play outside without me being present. There’s a lot of diversity in this are but there’s also a lot of ignorance that creates many problems all around. I feel like not enough of us have the guts to actually make a difference in this neighborhood and we all keep to ourselves. "
