So we just put up a table.
We talked to the liquor store owner or, you know, I said, hey, you know, it's okay.
They were like, yeah, it's okay.
And then I thought, we don't have a permit or anything.
So the cops pulled up.
And there's a video of this.
There's a big African-American cop and a little white lady.
They were both police officers, best on.
They pulled up on the curb, pulled up on us.
And I was like, oh.
And I was like, they're going to ask us about permits.
And they were like, what are you doing here?
And I was like, oh, we're just trying to talk to the community, trying to get people to leave the gang and this, have a better life.
They were like, no, no, no.
What are you doing here?

And Chicago is different.
There's a little village with a Latino neighborhood.
It's all Latino.
And you go to O'Block or South Chicago, and some areas are all black.
