Lonniebandsuniverse.com I want to take a moment to say Rest in peace Samir Grubbs. My deepest prayers go out to his Mother and family, may god give you strength and heal your hearts through this unimaginable grief. I don’t know them personally, but this tragic story touched me deeply. As a father of two four-year-old boys, I can’t imagine the pain of losing a child. No mother should ever have to bury her baby, especially not because of violence. We have to face the truth that the streets don’t love anybody, and it never will. It’s time for us to change the narrative in our communities. To all of the young men and women in our black communities: Be a leader, not a follower. Chase wisdom and become a scholar. Control your emotions, don’t let anger and pride make you a coward. Be a person with integrity, not one that’s a Fowler. Don’t listen to your friends, listen to your mama. This is a message from the heart to every black community in America: Lets lead with love, growth, understanding, purpose and prayer. Our future depends on it. Let’s take back our power. - Delante Landrum aka Bandgang Lonnie Bands
