Three displaced men trying to make a decent living in the streets of Pereira.
These men were once farm owners in Choco but narcotrafficking made them abandon their lands.

Yes I've been to Colombia and Mexico. There both beautiful countries.

[chsn09]

yep it is scary ! Yep it sure is !

Have you been to any of these countries !

[vford43]

Yes my brotha. I won't give up hope but it is people who need to change, starting within your own community. Many of the Mexican gangs rule the streets here in the U.S. and it is getting scarer and scarer

@vford43

Lol ! yes you are right ! And I am black !

And just be aware that Mexicans is not a race and that there are A LOT of Black people in Mexico.

Just like in Colombia Mexico has a large Afrodescendant population that lives in poverty and filfth and is neglected and are descendants of slaves.

Hell most latinos have black in them but many of them don't know it !

[vford43]

chsn09, yes we are suffering. Until Black folks learn to work and come together support each others businesses and community, only than will things change for us. My people are sometimes like cribs in a barrel. However, we are not the only race of people that is destroying each other. Look at Mexicans, such a beautiful culture but violence consume Mexico and its people.

Yes black people are suffering and seem to be "cursed" everywhere they go. Why ? because of racist and oppressive folks who don't want to respect black people !

It sucks ! Black people are good people !

[vford43]

[vford43]

Dang, Black folks have to hustle where ever they live.
