The Community: A photo essay

There are people who care for their homes.
They help themselves when landlords don't show up

No trust in the hood, everybody is for themselves.

Adinkra in the hood?
It looked like the symbol of Sankofa which means learning from your past...
wow...messages all around us

churches. churches. and more churches.

A place that is always open

A determined group doing their job.

Fix these potholes, they're costing people money.
and why are our streets so dirty?

Let my people go.
Holding on. the good with the bad. the past is always there

Freedom is a mentality

Cats need food and shouldn't be looking in trash cans.

Houses should not be boarded up and people should be taken off the streets and should be

placed into them.

Landlords don't do their jobs

DO YOUR JOB!!

What can we do? Make stuff happen brother!
He referred to people as "cats".

Stop The Littering. Bring more trash cans!

Help Wanted

Stop killings in Newark Now!!!

There are nice houses in this neighborhood
but they cost $$$$ a lot

A fire started by the homeless from candles.

They were living w/o power or light. Water? What country is this again?

Empty lot what could this be used for ?

Garbage in process to become pretty plant pot

Cleaning?

Working?

Moving down the avenue.

Telling it like it is..

Boarded up...
