@youngpanthas09 it isnt just the ghetto life, its the poor standard of living that is facing EVERY american today. No longer are only black people, or only immigrants, or only certain minorities oppressed. Now, all of us are equality fucked by our government. All of us are pressed upon by a giant, monetary thumb. Yet, people still hate. Racism = a veil placed upon people to distract them from what is really oppressing them

@gungrave02 Look up Toronto's most wanted list. Black Canadians have very high levels of crime, comparable to the united states. Blacks have high crime rates, lower I.Q's and high poverty rates universally around the world.

i think one thing we all can agree, if 2pac was still here, the world would be different. for a good reason. 2pac really was god

undoubtedly one of the greatest and least recognised thinkers of the 20th century. One of the biggest mistakes of 20th century American thought was to never take Tupac, and W.E.B Du Bois seriously. Real shame.

@ShankTownGangsta you should have studied harder... but i get your point

T.H.U.G.L.I.F.E stands for The Hate U Give Little Infants Fucks Everybody

a ghetto way of life is created by the government and society's standers if your born in to it you can understand the struggle. Some people seem to think they can fit Tupac in to the stereo type of just some gangster those people haven't listened him as a person, a friend or seen how real he is. the impact he has made on each and every person who has taken the time to see the diff sides of him will last forever

@876slewdem well not really by its cover, its just the way many of his "fans" talk about him, or how people would call him a real gangster, or they would say "I've got TUPAC" lungs while smoking weed. Even after the video ended, one of the sugested videos was a TUPAC song with a pic of him and a weed plant in the background. But I agree w/ what you are saying about America. Very true.

@00ellie

ITS CALLED JUDGING A BOOK BY ITS COVER... AND PLUS THIS COUNTRY "AMERICA" TAKE THE BAD/WORSE OUT OF PEOPLE CULTURES AND FEED IT TO SOCIETY... IM SORRY THAT IT TOOK YOU TO TAKE A CLASS TO SEE HOW HE REALLY WAS...

[00ellie]

The media does not portray him this way!! WOW. I thought he was a gangster that did great music for his genre and smoked pot in his free time. His own fans make him seem that way. I was totally wrong to think that. I wonder why it is that people prefer to remember how he died instead of how he lived. My Sociology professor showed this video today and I was not the only one who saw Tupac differently after this. College is important, stay in school kids! It'll teach you more than you know.

if only he wasnt taken from us i wonder what else this great man could have done!? Gr8 video!
