    His line on how black youth carry a chip on their shoulders is golden. You're doing something really amazing and giving a voice to some extraordinary teens

    “As a leader I feel like your not a real leader unless you can make the people around you leaders as well but I feel like if you can’t do that then your just a boss you know what I mean and I don’t wanna be a boss I wanna be a leader” very well said

    slept early and woke up at 5am and decided to watch this random vid youtube recommended to me and im so glad i did. the energy in this video feels so natural, which makes it very relatable. Feeling like the black outcast, noticing the mistakes wit our first love, wondering if our white friends truly care about us. I wish you the best in all your future endeavors

    He’s just talking about his feelings but this helped me a lot bro. It makes me feel I’m not the only person that feels this way about shit. I feel like I’m not alone in my loneliness. I needed this and all he did was talk about his experiences. Everyone needs someone to relate to it’s important.

I’ve been trying to find a way to record videos like this one in order to express myself and my story, this video definitely has given me an example to follow.
