An inside perspective through the eyes of longtime Chicago Westside residents who are caught in the middle of a tornado of dysfunction. Trying to find light that had been shut off, because they had seen better days when neighbors cared for each other. Without unity, the city ignored some of the simpler essentials to the survival of neighborhoods. They would not allow industry and jobs, as if they were taboos. Rather, they pursued just enough votes to stay with the plan, allowing everything, including drugs and guns, to guarantee death to neighborhoods and its youth. The fact that black people are complicit, paid by the investors and developers to steal real estate, is absolutely disgusting. Can Man, Fenny, and Eli are describing the work in progress by the conspirators, as they sit on this sinking Titanic to make room for a different demographic who will contribute more funds to be stolen from the people. Those who lose their minds dipping, get sent to federal prison to recharge. This is no fairy tale story, it is the honest truth.
