Everyone should be concerned when teachers’ go on strike.

The last thing you want is a bunch of kids with idle time on their hands. A lot of bad things can happen especially in a place like Chicago where the murder rate is already high.

I’m sitting here just thinking how sad it is that my city got to go through this. I love my city and everyone in it even my haters!

I don’t like that fact that OUR kids are not in school and that’s the only thing we have to SAVE these kids.

I pray everyday for US for real. I know I shouldn’t be saying this because I hoop and it’s not my lane but I feel like ppl should hear this.
