I saw this documentary on viceland this morning filmed in Gary. it was dope.

Last Week of High School - BALLS DEEP - VICELAND
Watched that last week. Vice/Viceland puts out some great shyt. That show (Balls Deep) is my favorite thing they do.

Gary probably has as bad a rep as any town in America. Good to see them highlight kids w bright futures instead of the doom and gloom,

yes, I thought it was really well done. that documentary on the kids in gary makes the kids we see on the media from the inner city out here look like shyt in comparision.

cuz all the gary kids, no matter what side of town they were from were on some real shyt.

at the beginning u see kids drinking and smoking, but then one buddy goes to pick up the other one, and the driver is telling his boy how he just got a new job, and they were all encouraging him.

and the one kid who they showed that went to the school on the worse side of town even had a plan. he was shown smoking the entire movie, yet he had a job at subway that he took pride in, and then was talking about getting into the military after he graduated and explained why.

then the kids from the other school all had a plan after graduation as well and were mostly going to college. it was good to see black youth portrayed in a positive manner despite the economic hardships that exist in that city.

and even tho gary is considered a city, I didn't see ANY instance of anyone on the entire documentary being on some gang bullshyt. they was just kickin it, working, and finishing up school.
