If you come from a neighborhood that you love and believe in the power and pride of the Village, you have got to watch this film. I grew up on 118th and Willowbrook and I grew up before the Watts rebellion, before there was a King Drew hospital, etc. But it was always a place where people looked out for you. It was a community that cared and after the stigma of the rebellion, gang violence and drugs, brought there from outsiders, folks looked down on our Village. This is the documented story about those who stayed and lifted us up as our Village always has! Young brothers and sisters found a place to commune, to develop our skills, to mold athletic super stars, to inspire generations! By us, for us! In spite of! We still are The Village!
