CharlieBo313 Hey charlie ima boss & Id like to shoot ya a idea , For your channel to take off alot more I think u should visit these rappers hoods & conmentate & all that... Thinking big
Lisa Moore thats a really cool idea and i am sure he thought about that.. but tbh... thats dangerous. You cant just drive in there and stop by a group- start asking questions out of nowhere.
When you asked what they could do to help their neighborhood, there was no answer. They've been raised to believe someone else, the government, will do it for them. We need to teach these kids to pick up trash, mow lawns, take some personal responsibility in their communities
These guys are acting this way because they are around their buddies. I can almost guarantee they would act completely different if the interview was 1 on 1 and in a different environment.
@@hakeenmcnutt9834 thank you they need stop judging them you dont talk much down there and you do watch what you say young men come up murdered every day and they kno that since this video a few of these young men have been murdered ps. they really dont have any buddies just ppl they hang around with and you gotta watch that
When I was a young girl I use to hang out in the hood a lot because those are the type of guys my friends like. I was a church girl my dad was a pastor so I always felt uncomfortable and out of place. Getting to actually know them they are actually sweet. Almost all of them have trauma or something in their life that is like omg. They’re still human with feelings and hearts. These comments break my heart. A lot of these Mississippi boys are lost with no guidance and alot of them want that guidance but keep getting sucked back into that life style. I’ve personally tried to drag some of them out. Some changed their lives some didn’t
Mike Maloney its ebonics, “American black English regarded as a language in its own right rather than as a dialect of standard English.” so for people who aren’t exposed to this type of language it can be very difficult to understand.
Well someone could choose to get out but the obstacles are probably tenfold for someone that starts out in a "ghetto". Couple that with not having the same advantages that someone with greater means or born in a more affluent place does. Look at high school graduation rates and then college transfer rates. More affluent areas generally have a much much higher rate of graduation and transfer to university. I'm not saying its not possible to choose, but its exponentially more difficult for someone with limited economic & social means that also starts out with a disadvantage such as this. Its just that the poor are easy targets because they cant really fight back, so guess who people pick on when things get bad.
"Couple that with not having the same advantages that someone with greater means or born in a more affluent place does. " - Are you referring to "white privilege' ??
Babies raising babies! These kids haven't been taught anything as far as communication, or sense, I couldn't understand anything they said, smdh. Nobody knows the life that these kids have lived. Until you walk in their shoes, there's nothing to say, just pray for them. Oh God!!
U can't understand english? Bc I understood them quite well. So tired of the bigotry, prejudice and down right racism that comes with ppl who speak AAVE. Learn ALL American dialects, not just the standardized one.

Jack Torrance I live in a small rural community approximately 90 miles south of Cleveland Oh.

that is true he helps out and is good friends with mayor and rick ross grandma lives there i used to live across the street from her mr. ross helps out when he can also
They all seem like great kids... hope they all do well. 😎 You’re brave to just dive in asking their names. Been to Clarksdale 4 times. Just love the place🎸
I'm not religious but all I can think of is "Idle hands are the Devil's workshop" when it comes to unemployed youth. Looking good in clothes and fancy shoes is not going to get you far if you don't have a job. Learn a vocational tech skill and go to work. Don't spend your money on a 4 year college with student loans and a degree in something you will never use.
jack off that’s bullshit. Welfare doesn’t create this. It may enable and enhance this type of behavior but I’ve known people on welfare who can complete an intelligent sentence.
601, you're bullshit. Welfare does create this environment. It's a culture of 'I'm entitled'. Who the fuck said anything about the way they talk. Let me bring your dumbass back around on point. Welfare breeds dependency, which in turn creates poverty. Now shut the fuck up and go back to sleep. Thanks for playing, try again.........
I hope at least 1 of these kids has the motivation to want to see more than this and leave this part of the country. Even if they return later to help out.....They have to leave to see another life
Misplace priorities. The mayor could have a dump day twice a year. A household and hazardous Material dump twice a year. That would clear a lot of debris up. Donated paint and wood from the local hardware store and they can get tax break. It is small thing that can get the community back in the work mode.
please tell me jamie is not dead i knew him and prayed for him everyday before i left please tell me if he is alive or not my heart is so very sad and i do cry at times bc i spent so much time talking to him bout staying out of trouble im 57 he was like a son to me please help me i wanted to take him with me when i moved from ms. bac home bc i knew if he stayed something might happen to him
@@julienbee3467 thank you for answering are you from clarksdale ...did you know him ... I am disabled now and been sick but getting better he was a young man i used to try to talk to and always told him to stay out of trouble my heart is sad because I always prayed for him to survive the streets of clarksdale ms. when me and my son went back to calif. in 2014 and everytime i think of Jamie I cry im an old woman and if he is dead my heart is broken ...he was a good kid and always said yes maam to me when he seen me ...I wish I would have moved him to ca. with me i would have put him up and looked out for him so he would still be alive Im so sad can you please find out for me if he is dead so my heart can rest i kno its almost 2020 but i seen his soul through his eyes but I do feel he is dead thank you for listening
CharlieBo313, as someone who grew up in the Upper Midwest of northern Wisconsin and eventually moved to the Minneapolis/St. Paul area, you would never see this kind of squalor in a town of similar size as Clarksdale. Nor the amount of crime as well. It's quite sad and kind of heartbreaking to watch. I appreciate you making these videos. You do a tremendous job, sir. Thank you.
Love your videos I have family lives in Cleveland MS not far away from Clarksdale, like 30 minutes I visit some years back in Cleveland MS, very small city. Very nice houses though in Cleveland MS.
Black people been saying that same old saying for the last 40 years ...Somebody needs to roll through these neighborhoods and hand out condoms , birth control and some job applications .
True but first you gotta have actual jobs. Nobody wants to work customer service for minimum wage. When tyrone down the street makes a $1000 or more untaxed dollars a day doing nothing. @Loud and Explosive Bowel Movements
that is because you can get shot running up to somebodies car out there it aint like cally where im from i learned real quick when i moved to clarksdale dem bois down south will lay you down quick fast and in a hurry if they feel threaten
I feel for these kids man. You can just see in their eyes they feel lost and wander. They deserve much better. I wish the rich fuckers of the world would really feel the life these young kids wander through and see how much good they could do to help these communities more.
I don’t know what these people commenting on this vlog are talking about... I saw very nice boys wanting to be friendly for an exchange and opening up to introduce their neighborhood
Grown man - "So what can you do to improve the neighborhood, as young men?" Kid - "They can put mo money in my pocket and I help the city do betta thangs" It's depressing how uneducated these kids are.
Charlie, the way some of the locals stare at you when you're driving by, it looks like you're about to do a drive by shooting, Lol. Anyway, thanks for the awesome videos, keep them coming!!!
Wow, you’re literally no less than 30 mins from where I live. There’s a bridge that separates Arkansas and Mississippi and as soon as you cross it, you’ll come into a town called Helena-West Helena AKA HellTown 😬. You should do a few local interviews here.
Sharon Green back in 2017 there was a list of the top 10 counties in the country with the highest homicide rate and 3 were from the Delta. Phillips county was #3 and the other two was on the Mississippi side and they were #2 Coahoma and #9 Washington that’s where I’m from.
I don't see the real motive behind this video. It's obvious the guy behind this video isn't from Clarksdale. How can you expect an political answer from someone who does know anything about politics or even have been taught anything about politics. What you should've done was enlighten them on the importance of standing in school & getting an education. And how to be self-sufficient and not rely on anyone but self. Next time you're in Clarksdale stop by the Round yard, Sasse, or the Oakhurst area. I got some kids for you to talk with & you would be amazed.
OMG. It's bad enough living in a city slum, but to live in a slum out in the middle of nowhere ... well, it's not even in the same area code as "depressing!!"
Those young guys didnt know What They were talking about. Im from that area. So much has changed. Start talking to older ppl who saw the neighborhood change
I see a bunch of great faces and souls , really really caught up , sadly, in their poverty where ever they live. It's not they're faults but these young men are definitely capable of many things! It's all about the exposure
As of me , i live in clarksdale , they wouldn’t have much to say because they live as they go ... You was around my neighborhood , Garfield, i would have loved to answer any question you had .
hello young lady how are you listen i used to live in clarksdale from 2012 to 2014 and i lived on garfield in those pink houses down the street from jamie he lived with his grandma and his brothers can you tell me if he got murdered early that year i used to mentor jamie
It's weird watching this video. I used to stay on Garfield in the brickyard. 10 years and NOTHING has changed. My old duplex was boarded up tho. Ugh so glad I got out of that trap
Shouldve asked them what they thought about Hillary Clinton in the 90s calling black youths "super predators" and saying "they need to be brought to heel"
The Brickyard, Roundyard, Riverton, Downtown and the part of town where in my time, blacks was unwelcome-Oakurst. This town was awesome in the 90s and early 2000s. It had a city and country feel. I left here and 2008. In a way, I do miss Clarksdale, but there is nothing to do there anymore. All of the good jobs had folded up. Ive even had run uns with the laws back then who I still highly respected because they wasnt asshole, well at least not all of them, but enough was on the force back then to out weight the bad. It was truly a Utopia back then. That shit started going down hill in 2003 and got worse by the year. Unbelievable. Its unbelievable how a fine city had turned into a circle of hell.
I grew up in Clarksdale, and like you said, it was great! I left in '99, but due to ailing health, I've moved back, and I live with my mom. Seeing Clarksdale like it is now breaks my heart.
This is so sad,I'm from Ellisville Mississippi,But I live in California now,Some of these people are stuck with no way out,And there content with that🙆🤦🙅🤷🙍
missy solobolo im from calif. also but i lived in clarksdale ms. with a minor child for two yrs from 2012 to 2014 your so right it was so bad and i seen how they were murdering a black male once a week and i lived by myself with my 14 yr old son and they gangs were breaking in houses with all that yellow tape around them i had to get my baby out of there so i moved back to ca. where i live now
mary j johnson Im from the Delta born and raised, I’m from Greenville. Back in 2017 a list dropped showing the top 10 counties in the US with the highest homicide rate and 3 of them was from the Delta. They were #2 Coahoma (Clarksdale) #3 Phillips AR (Helena-West Helena) and #9 Washington (Greenville)
I stay in clarksdale and if he had of asked me my answer would have been. Fix some of the houses he passed by maybe the roads, and better paying jobs. But he just went to the rough neighborhood where i stay doesn't look like but i do have to drive 45 mins to get to work.
When I lived in Central FL for 2 years, I worked as a counselor for Florida Hospital and used to visit neighborhoods that looked just like this. Such a feeling of deja vu here!!! Truth is, I detested living in FL so much that slums neighborhood and "nice" neighborhoods were all the same to me. I lived through the 4 hurricanes in 2004, and Hurricane Charley turned neighborhoods like this into matchstick piles.
P. J. Bovio if you worried about the poverty then petition some of the politicians to put jobs in such neighborhoods,since you voting for their crooked ass I would think you would demand that from them if you are really worried about these kinds of neighborhoods.
P. J. Bovio for those type of jobs that is self explanatory... It's not rocket science..If illiterate Europeans could do such jobs in the early 1920's,30',40s I'm sure they can figure it out.
P. J. Bovio And they had all kinds of programs to pull them up! Without the restrictions they have in place now...And jobs were more plentiful BK then than now.
Shout out to BDawg in Cdale! You know who you are. Anyway, I was born and raised in Cdale 80-90's and still have friends there. I sympathize with these boys. Cdale is washed out and diseased in the mind. It's not their fault. Raise a child the way it should go and they will never depart from it. That's on GOD.
It's not as bad as u think u can't just say sum about a town u have never been to it's actually it looks pretty good as u probably don't know most of blues originated here and Morgan Freeman helps dis town a lot
well your right about morgan freeman but clarksdale ms. is horrible i lived there for two years and murder of young black men happen every week and every other house is broken into and cops dont do anything to help when i lived there my house was broken into theres nothing for these young men to do out there no jobs no recreation no malls nothing but the white man wants us to kill our self and all black ppl i had to get my 14 year old out of there so i did
When I was that age the dollar was worth 1.5gr of gold. Nixon suspended the convertibility of the dollar into gold temporarily, since August 15, 1971. Damn near 47 years is not temporary. At any rate, when I was that age, my dads yard was on a corner lot and the best looking one in the neighborhood. We were competitive and I earned a salary cutting grass for $3 per yard, using dads lawn mower. That was 4.5gr of gold. Those children have too much time on their hands. They should be cleaning up their neighborhood, for crying out loud. All that is coming back and do not forget the Kool Aid Stands.
Why are these comments so judgmental? Until you walk in these people shoes you will never know or understand how they feel. You really think people wanna live poor and hopeless, are there decent paying jobs in their areas? What are the conditions of the schools? You people sit back and judge people who are less fortunate than you, if you were born into these conditions how do you really think your life would be. To live in such conditions is not easy to look at your rundown environment day in and day out will kill any hopes and dreams you have for yourself. Only the strong can survive these conditions...
Justin B what you mean "couldn't go"? I see white ppl in the hood all the time. You sound dumb af. You're probably one of those white ppl who have never meant a black person and get your perception of black ppl from the news
The city I live in is 80 percent black and don't pretend that it isn't dangerous for a random white person to go into a black neighborhood. Hell it is even dangerous for other black people to go in some of those neighborhoods . I guess you are going to pretend I am just making this shit up though
Let me just walk through the Southside of Chicago or some new Orleans housing projects I am sure nothing could possibly happen except they would welcome me in their homes for dinner
Justin B ok. I live in Detroit. It must be a cultural thing. Maybe it is like that in the south. But here in Detroit, ppl would mind their business no matter what color your are. It's not like we out here hunting white ppl. The crime is equally dangerous for everyone.
Justin B and chicago is similar too Detroit. They are both Midwest cities. I have family in Chicago. If you walked through chicago, you will have the same odds of something happening to you as a black person. The risk wouldn't go up because of you're race.
Just look at those lads , clean shaven , clean skin , smart ,well turned out , got to be some pride somewhere . What a bloody awful waste of young men who I am sure have got so much untapped potential . Wake up U.S.A.!! you don't know what you're missing out on .
This is sad to see them talk like that I love my little babies but they need so much help thank you for doing what you doing they don't know any better they need someone to take time up with them and teach them more about how life happens
MS is rural. You have more chances of being asked for a Newport or 60 cents on you than being shanked in an alley. Not that it's a bad thing. For those that don't know
Benji Hernandez You are a Mexican talkin shit about what you don't know! Lol I wish it was like that..Do you know the amount of crime that goes on in this one little city? We don't have many Mexicans and the ones that have came did so in like the last 8 years or so.
@@mkkm5489 when i lived there in 2012 to 2014 im from calif. and there are mexicans everywhere and i looked for some in clarksdale i only seen one in two years
Henry Barry a member of the Virginia House of Delegates, who said on January 20, 1832, 175 years ago. When asked about black people and how to control them. He replied. "Pass as severe laws as you will to keep these unfortunate creatures in ignorance. It is in vain unless you can extinguish that spark of intellect which God has given them. Sir, we have as far as possible closed every avenue by which light may enter their minds. We only have to go one step further to extinguish their capacity to see the light and our work will be completed. And they would then be reduced to the level of the beasts of the field and we should be safe. Sir, a death struggle must come between the two classes or races in which one or the other will be extinguished forever.”
Hold tight "MY PEOPLE" for you redemption draws near !!!!!! They will no longer defile themselves with their idols, or with their detestable things, or with any of their transgressions; but I will deliver them from all their dwelling places in which they have sinned, and will cleanse them. And they will be My people, and I will be their God. Ezekiel 36:29. Verse Concepts. God Saves From ...
Bad luck is one thing. Being a lazy stupid parasite who refuses to make something, anything of themselves is another. If you in a factory and work hard and play by the rules. Good for you. You dont have to make millions to be something just a good person in the end. This is hopelessness all around.
Oh and once a year we have a juke festival and all races be here in clarksdale walking around and camping but the river for a whole weekend so it is safe
Brittany Tyler Clarksdale ain't safe... You might be born and raise so you just use to it...But don't try to trick them people.. The violence is real! Just like it is in many other places in MS.
@@mkkm5489 your right... but that is her home and she has a right to defend it instead of just being afraid and running talking about it and not trying to make a difference
@@maryjjohnson3523 I don't understand your point.. running and being afraid? Who said she should be afraid and running?There are good things about the city! But it ain't all sweet just like many other places in MS! One good thing about it..Is we haven't been been taken over by Hispanics like Cali! (You said you from Ali right) and they ain't started gentrification that ran us out...Another good thing is we have the highest black Pop in the country so hopefully we can come together and make some positive change.
Mk Km back in 2017 there was a list of the top 10 counties in the country with the highest homicide rate and 3 was from the Delta. They were #2 Coahoma #3 Phillips AR( Helena-West Helena) and #9 Washington
If you want to change your life, save up $5000 while momma pays all the bills with her PO box and tax payers money....then buy a van. Leave all of your criminal friends behind, disappear to a new place. Speak with respect, and try your best. Show up on time.... In 2 years, anyone from the hood can be someone with something to be proud of, but POLITICIANS convince people in the hood to stay there, and keep on voting Democrat.

Cool interview Charlie, like when you do these
Lisa Moore That’s a great idea! I’d definitely be interested to watch that!
Lisa Moore thats a really cool idea and i am sure he thought about that.. but tbh... thats dangerous. You cant just drive in there and stop by a group- start asking questions out of nowhere.
When you asked what they could do to help their neighborhood, there was no answer. They've been raised to believe someone else, the government, will do it for them. We need to teach these kids to pick up trash, mow lawns, take some personal responsibility in their communities
The question is not what they can do, but what can be done for them..
Yep once he asked that question I knew he wouldn't get an answer
Zidane Steiner ITS WAY TO LATE, most are in a Perpetual state of failure. PREPARE ACCORDINGLY !!!
awareness should be raised among these kids but it's not up to them to pick up all the trash which is already there

These guys are acting this way because they are around their buddies. I can almost guarantee they would act completely different if the interview was 1 on 1 and in a different environment.
I think you're right on. They are conditioned to not reveal much about thier real selves - much less emotions - to each other. Survival.

This and not speaking proper English.
They're country and ghetto which is two dams in one ..You can tell their IQ is extremely low just listening to them
I cant say I disagree with a lot of these comments, but as I always like to remind people you dont choose where youre born.
You can be born anywhere and still be a piece of shit, or a contributing member of society.
You can choose to get out . Free will .
Well someone could choose to get out but the obstacles are probably tenfold for someone that starts out in a "ghetto". Couple that with not having the same advantages that someone with greater means or born in a more affluent place does.
Look at high school graduation rates and then college transfer rates. More affluent areas generally have a much much higher rate of graduation and transfer to university.
I'm not saying its not possible to choose, but its exponentially more difficult for someone with limited economic & social means that also starts out with a disadvantage such as this. Its just that the poor are easy targets because they cant really fight back, so guess who people pick on when things get bad.

Morgan Freeman is from Clarksdell Mississippi.. He has a Restaurant in the city limits of the town.. He helps this town alot..
Did he grow up there ?
that is true he helps out and is good friends with mayor and rick ross grandma lives there i used to live across the street from her mr. ross helps out when he can also
Septina Willis nahhh he from Memphis, Tennessee
They all seem like great kids...
hope they all do well. 😎
You’re brave to just dive in asking their names. Been to Clarksdale 4
times. Just love the place🎸
thank you they are good kids but since this video some have been murdered sadly
That’s terrible news!
@@maryjjohnson3523 How do you know that?

I'm not religious but all I can think of is "Idle hands are the Devil's workshop" when it comes to unemployed youth. Looking good in clothes and fancy shoes is not going to get you far if you don't have a job. Learn a vocational tech skill and go to work. Don't spend your money on a 4 year college with student loans and a degree in something you will never use.
"I'm not religious". ???? What if a person was?
i don't get only one thing. there is trash cans near every house,but there is still trash on ground like wtf?
These guys are incoherent and can't focus. They're lost.
They focus just not on that bullshit he talking about..lol
I like it when you interview the kids on the street. Nice to hear their thoughts about things.
‘Chopper in the trunk for Donald trump’. Lol!!!
jack off WOW THAT'S FUNNY. (non-factual tho) BITCH IK U THINK I'M WHITE,BUT I'M BLACK SOOOO STFU
Thanks Charlie, these interview videos are the best...
Damn is it still in the 19th century down there? Nothing but raggedy ass shacks. Wtf. Smh?????
There are a lot of nice developments as well man.. but yes a lot of shacks and shitholes..
The shacks bring down the neighborhood value. It doesn't look hood to me, more impoverished. Also a nice community center for the kids.
This is the delta. This is what welfare does to people.
jack off that’s bullshit. Welfare doesn’t create this. It may enable and enhance this type of behavior but I’ve known people on welfare who can complete an intelligent sentence.
601, you're bullshit. Welfare does create this environment. It's a culture of 'I'm entitled'. Who the fuck said anything about the way they talk. Let me bring your dumbass back around on point. Welfare breeds dependency, which in turn creates poverty. Now shut the fuck up and go back to sleep. Thanks for playing, try again.........
This is really a fantastic ethnography.
Well I'll be a son of a bitch, its the Chocolate Rain guy! Is anyone else seeing this?
@@locobandito7389 boogers
@Lost in Sauce Thank you for your input!
Get ready for some chocolate pain
So you and I really watch the same videos?
I hope at least 1 of these kids has the motivation to want to see more than this and leave this part of the country. Even if they return later to help out.....They have to leave to see another life
sad to say i know three young men in this video have been murdered since this video

2:08 rims worth more then every house on the whole block put together
Priorities, priorities, priorities. looking good in the neighbor - hood.
Also 5:14 and 7:02
Ay you from the AP
Misplace priorities. The mayor could have a dump day twice a year. A household and hazardous Material dump twice a year. That would clear a lot of debris up. Donated paint and wood from the local hardware store and they can get tax break. It is small thing that can get the community back in the work mode.

CharlieBo313, as someone who grew up in the Upper Midwest of northern Wisconsin and eventually moved to the Minneapolis/St. Paul area, you would never see this kind of squalor in a town of similar size as Clarksdale. Nor the amount of crime as well. It's quite sad and kind of heartbreaking to watch. I appreciate you making these videos. You do a tremendous job, sir. Thank you.
Love your videos I have family lives in Cleveland MS not far away from Clarksdale, like 30 minutes I visit some years back in Cleveland MS, very small city. Very nice houses though in Cleveland MS.
The delta is special and beautiful in its own way
Cleveland is just as bad as Clarksdale as far as gangs and crime.
Products of their environment.
A little bit of both tbh
Black people been saying that same old saying for the last 40 years ...Somebody needs to roll through these neighborhoods and hand out condoms , birth control and some job applications .
True but first you gotta have actual jobs. Nobody wants to work customer service for minimum wage. When tyrone down the street makes a $1000 or more untaxed dollars a day doing nothing.
@Loud and Explosive Bowel Movements
Soft bigotry of low expectations...
The Revanchist We should meet up
Man it's a dangerous going threw those neighborhoods with that truck you sure you going to make it.....sheeesh 😂
Those dusty ass hicks aren't going to do anything but except get in your face and mumble mouth you to insanity

The way Charlie rolls through these hoods I'm surprised no ones run up and asked him if he needs something.
that is because you can get shot running up to somebodies car out there it aint like cally where im from i learned real quick when i moved to clarksdale dem bois down south will lay you down quick fast and in a hurry if they feel threaten
I feel for these kids man. You can just see in their eyes they feel lost and wander. They deserve much better. I wish the rich fuckers of the world would really feel the life these young kids wander through and see how much good they could do to help these communities more.
Today on Charliebo, I interview used socks. Just kidding, used socks will do more with their lives.
More than I can say for you.
I don’t know what these people commenting on this vlog are talking about... I saw very nice boys wanting to be friendly for an exchange and opening up to introduce their neighborhood
Fred Flinstone I agree, people always want to hate on something they know nothing about.
The youth in that town don't have a clue , they should be trying to get out of that town simply because Clasdale Mississippi has nothing to offer. . .
I’m from Shreveport,LA and the hoods their look like hoods in my city.
Frfr look like the Grove
Nice video!, you should keep on doing more interviews it makes the videos a lot more interesting.
dang watchig these cats making me feel like im a bobble head....
Grown man - "So what can you do to improve the neighborhood, as young men?"
Kid - "They can put mo money in my pocket and I help the city do betta thangs"
It's depressing how uneducated these kids are.
Man its crazy
Charlie, the way some of the locals stare at you when you're driving by, it looks like you're about to do a drive by shooting, Lol. Anyway, thanks for the awesome videos, keep them coming!!!
never that they know he is cool
Wow, you’re literally no less than 30 mins from where I live. There’s a bridge that separates Arkansas and Mississippi and as soon as you cross it, you’ll come into a town called Helena-West Helena AKA HellTown 😬. You should do a few local interviews here.
Sharon Green back in 2017 there was a list of the top 10 counties in the country with the highest homicide rate and 3 were from the Delta. Phillips county was #3 and the other two was on the Mississippi side and they were #2 Coahoma and #9 Washington that’s where I’m from.
I don't see the real motive behind this video. It's obvious the guy behind this video isn't from Clarksdale. How can you expect an political answer from someone who does know anything about politics or even have been taught anything about politics. What you should've done was enlighten them on the importance of standing in school & getting an education. And how to be self-sufficient and not rely on anyone but self. Next time you're in Clarksdale stop by the Round yard, Sasse, or the Oakhurst area. I got some kids for you to talk with & you would be amazed.
OMG. It's bad enough living in a city slum, but to live in a slum out in the middle of nowhere ... well, it's not even in the same area code as "depressing!!"
Too far south of Memphis and too far north of Jackson lol.. Kind of like a slum sandwich :D
Yes; in the city you have to watch your back constantly.
Yes, but the Delta has its own charm and character, as I'm sure you know.. Lots of pretty neat hidden places up there.
South Haven is closer than Memphis..Shit Memphis is damn near in MS.
Never understood why they didn't just combine Southaven, Olive Branch and Memphis all together lol
Thanks for sharing another awesome video with us,🌿
Fatherless young men roaming the streets looking for an identity that a father could have provided.
Those young guys didnt know What They were talking about. Im from that area. So much has changed. Start talking to older ppl who saw the neighborhood change
Damn is really dat bad down there
U took it further with the hood interviews.i love em.
I see a bunch of great faces and souls , really really caught up , sadly, in their poverty where ever they live. It's not they're faults but these young men are definitely capable of many things! It's all about the exposure
Lmao. CharlieBo got nervous when he said look at the 🌲.
As of me , i live in clarksdale , they wouldn’t have much to say because they live as they go ... You was around my neighborhood , Garfield, i would have loved to answer any question you had .
hello young lady how are you listen i used to live in clarksdale from 2012 to 2014 and i lived on garfield in those pink houses down the street from jamie he lived with his grandma and his brothers can you tell me if he got murdered early that year i used to mentor jamie
Do you agree with what they said on the interview ?
It's weird watching this video. I used to stay on Garfield in the brickyard. 10 years and NOTHING has changed. My old duplex was boarded up tho. Ugh so glad I got out of that trap
Great vid, thanks for the insight CB313, hope them boys find hope.
Shouldve asked them what they thought about Hillary Clinton in the 90s calling black youths "super predators" and saying "they need to be brought to heel"
lol right
DannyDanko only truthful thing that moron ever said
hi, I can't understand! are you going to all the States?
Come up to Flint Michigan.... Alot of BAD Stuff going on all the Time!!
The Brickyard, Roundyard, Riverton, Downtown and the part of town where in my time, blacks was unwelcome-Oakurst. This town was awesome in the 90s and early 2000s. It had a city and country feel. I left here and 2008. In a way, I do miss Clarksdale, but there is nothing to do there anymore. All of the good jobs had folded up. Ive even had run uns with the laws back then who I still highly respected because they wasnt asshole, well at least not all of them, but enough was on the force back then to out weight the bad. It was truly a Utopia back then. That shit started going down hill in 2003 and got worse by the year. Unbelievable. Its unbelievable how a fine city had turned into a circle of hell.
I grew up in Clarksdale, and like you said, it was great! I left in '99, but due to ailing health, I've moved back, and I live with my mom. Seeing Clarksdale like it is now breaks my heart.
Man my home town looks bad. California life now. But I will be visiting this Christmas. All the good people dead now.
Hey ik yall 😤 Wsp if u don’t remember me I’m net daughter
This is so sad,I'm from Ellisville Mississippi,But I live in California now,Some of these people are stuck with no way out,And there content with that🙆🤦🙅🤷🙍
missy solobolo im from calif. also but i lived in clarksdale ms. with a minor child for two yrs from 2012 to 2014 your so right it was so bad and i seen how they were murdering a black male once a week and i lived by myself with my 14 yr old son and they gangs were breaking in houses with all that yellow tape around them i had to get my baby out of there so i moved back to ca. where i live now
mary j johnson Im from the Delta born and raised, I’m from Greenville. Back in 2017 a list dropped showing the top 10 counties in the US with the highest homicide rate and 3 of them was from the Delta. They were #2 Coahoma (Clarksdale) #3 Phillips AR (Helena-West Helena) and #9 Washington (Greenville)
I,m from Germany I love your Vidios is so Grazy My World and Your World is sooooo who Sunn and Moon . Love it my friends tooo
Wäre besser du schreibst deutsch, oder kannst Du das auch nicht?
I stay in clarksdale and if he had of asked me my answer would have been. Fix some of the houses he passed by maybe the roads, and better paying jobs. But he just went to the rough neighborhood where i stay doesn't look like but i do have to drive 45 mins to get to work.
When I lived in Central FL for 2 years, I worked as a counselor for Florida Hospital and used to visit neighborhoods that looked just like this. Such a feeling of deja vu here!!! Truth is, I detested living in FL so much that slums neighborhood and "nice" neighborhoods were all the same to me. I lived through the 4 hurricanes in 2004, and Hurricane Charley turned neighborhoods like this into matchstick piles.
P. J. Bovio if you worried about the poverty then petition some of the politicians to put jobs in such neighborhoods,since you voting for their crooked ass I would think you would demand that from them if you are really worried about these kinds of neighborhoods.
I not only demand job opportunities be made available, but also JOB TRAINING programs so that people are able to carry out the tasks the jobs require.
P. J. Bovio for those type of jobs that is self explanatory... It's not rocket science..If illiterate Europeans could do such jobs in the early 1920's,30',40s I'm sure they can figure it out.
Those types of jobs given to many of those illiterate Europeans were in sweatshops where they earned salaries not worth a damn.
P. J. Bovio And they had all kinds of programs to pull them up! Without the restrictions they have in place now...And jobs were more plentiful BK then than now.
Shout out to BDawg in Cdale! You know who you are. Anyway, I was born and raised in Cdale 80-90's and still have friends there. I sympathize with these boys. Cdale is washed out and diseased in the mind. It's not their fault. Raise a child the way it should go and they will never depart from it. That's on GOD.
mrs. lisa do you kno if jamie kid with hat on back is dead can you let me kno please thank you
15:00 dude had the heater on him.

It's not as bad as u think u can't just say sum about a town u have never been to it's actually it looks pretty good as u probably don't know most of blues originated here and Morgan Freeman helps dis town a lot
well your right about morgan freeman but clarksdale ms. is horrible i lived there for two years and murder of young black men happen every week and every other house is broken into and cops dont do anything to help when i lived there my house was broken into theres nothing for these young men to do out there no jobs no recreation no malls nothing but the white man wants us to kill our self and all black ppl i had to get my 14 year old out of there so i did
When I was that age the dollar was worth 1.5gr of gold. Nixon suspended the convertibility of the dollar into gold temporarily, since August 15, 1971.
Damn near 47 years is not temporary. At any rate, when I was that age, my dads yard was on a corner lot and the best looking one in the neighborhood.
We were competitive and I earned a salary cutting grass for $3 per yard, using dads lawn mower. That was 4.5gr of gold. Those children have too much time on their hands. They should be cleaning up their neighborhood, for crying out loud. All that is coming back and do not forget the Kool Aid Stands.
very depressing, thx for posting charlie
Why are these comments so judgmental? Until you walk in these people shoes you will never know or understand how they feel. You really think people wanna live poor and hopeless, are there decent paying jobs in their areas? What are the conditions of the schools? You people sit back and judge people who are less fortunate than you, if you were born into these conditions how do you really think your life would be. To live in such conditions is not easy to look at your rundown environment day in and day out will kill any hopes and dreams you have for yourself. Only the strong can survive these conditions...
Can you exploit some poor white communities for your next video please??? And thanks
Justin B what you mean "couldn't go"? I see white ppl in the hood all the time. You sound dumb af. You're probably one of those white ppl who have never meant a black person and get your perception of black ppl from the news
The city I live in is 80 percent black and don't pretend that it isn't dangerous for a random white person to go into a black neighborhood. Hell it is even dangerous for other black people to go in some of those neighborhoods . I guess you are going to pretend I am just making this shit up though
Let me just walk through the Southside of Chicago or some new Orleans housing projects I am sure nothing could possibly happen except they would welcome me in their homes for dinner
Justin B ok. I live in Detroit. It must be a cultural thing. Maybe it is like that in the south. But here in Detroit, ppl would mind their business no matter what color your are. It's not like we out here hunting white ppl. The crime is equally dangerous for everyone.
Justin B and chicago is similar too Detroit. They are both Midwest cities. I have family in Chicago. If you walked through chicago, you will have the same odds of something happening to you as a black person. The risk wouldn't go up because of you're race.
Just look at those lads , clean shaven , clean skin , smart ,well turned out , got to be some pride somewhere . What a bloody awful waste of young men who I am sure have got so much untapped potential . Wake up U.S.A.!! you don't know what you're missing out on .
Dude gone say follow his Instagram and not tell us his Instagram 😂😂😂💀
This is sad to see them talk like that I love my little babies but they need so much help thank you for doing what you doing they don't know any better they need someone to take time up with them and teach them more about how life happens
Ay you should head down to Hattiesburg and then go to Meridian 💪🏽
MS is rural. You have more chances of being asked for a Newport or 60 cents on you than being shanked in an alley. Not that it's a bad thing. For those that don't know
Benji Hernandez You are a Mexican talkin shit about what you don't know! Lol I wish it was like that..Do you know the amount of crime that goes on in this one little city? We don't have many Mexicans and the ones that have came did so in like the last 8 years or so.

i do understand what you mean and your right
Henry Barry a member of the Virginia House of Delegates, who said on January 20, 1832, 175 years ago. When asked about black people and how to control them. He replied.
"Pass as severe laws as you will to keep these unfortunate creatures in ignorance. It is in vain unless you can extinguish that spark of intellect which God has given them. Sir, we have as far as possible closed every avenue by which light may enter their minds. We only have to go one step further to extinguish their capacity to see the light and our work will be completed. And they would then be reduced to the level of the beasts of the field and we should be safe. Sir, a death struggle must come between the two classes or races in which one or the other will be extinguished forever.”
Hold tight "MY PEOPLE" for you redemption draws near !!!!!!
They will no longer defile themselves with their idols, or with their detestable things, or with any of their transgressions; but I will deliver them from all their dwelling places in which they have sinned, and will cleanse them. And they will be My people, and I will be their God. Ezekiel 36:29. Verse Concepts. God Saves From ...
Come to Clarksdale again
Bad luck is one thing. Being a lazy stupid parasite who refuses to make something, anything of themselves is another. If you in a factory and work hard and play by the rules. Good for you. You dont have to make millions to be something just a good person in the end. This is hopelessness all around.
