Black panthers r the most racist hateful ppl

@ AJ+ Would it possible to have the credit of the music used please?

Once people serve their time that should be it, unless they're an active danger to society like sex offenders. However, they should have to put anything down on an application form...

what the name of the music?

Aha ayeee I pass by this garden everytime i take the train To go to SF

Great idea, this is taking off in all inner cities. They are turning empty lots into gardens.

Ashay! Now that's what I'm talking about! Hope! ✊😎

those tomatoes looked sp plumped and juice

This is actually really amazing. Fantastic idea and I really hope it takes off.

Beautiful.

Love this

Such a progressive and great model, gardening and tending to crops really humbles a person and helps so much towards to recovery,

Great video! Anyone know the music in the background?

Urban farming is massively important.

SHE TEACHING!!!
"Maleficent has suffered abuse in the past, and there is a reason she is as furious as she is. And I think that children who have been outcast and abused in any way will relate to her. There's a beautiful side to her; she's not just a dark person. She has all these facets. And that is interesting". ~Angelina Jolie

What an amazing program.

im glad these people were given a chance to get back into society and out of the prison system. If only there were more places like this across the country.

Nice but is it specifically for black people?
