The growth of the African American community has not been properly publicized. There seems to be a negative impact surrounding the African American community. High incarceration rates are not the only aspect that the African American community dominates. A high crime rate and violence seems to stem from the African American community. There are record number of murders, robberies, and gang involvement that exist around areas of poverty. In recent news, a great number of CPS students have been killed since the start of the school year in September. The majority of these murders have been assumed to be connected to gang involvement. The existence of gangs in areas of poverty has damaged the community greatly. It seems that “WE” seem to play a part in “OUR” own destruction. It is not all put on the government or the state of the environment. 
The African American community needs to evolve dramatically in the areas of economics. The mental aspect seems to be focused on just surviving. Because of this, people are just doing what they have to do to live from day to day instead of evolving and providing a better tomorrow for the next generation. There are a lot of changes that need to occur with in the community. The upcoming generations seem to be inheriting the perils of their parents. This curse needs to be broken and the attainment of a better education would contribute tremendously to achieving this much needed goal. Illegal activities are often the easiest to get involved with. There is also a shortage of jobs and programs that help people that are in these uneasy situations. But if there is no improvement of economic growth as well as mental growth among the African American community, then the generations to come will just become contributing factors to the destruction of their own race.
