00:00:17Hey, bruh, I'm telling you, the street shit ain't where it's set.
00:00:20It's like every other day I'm hearing about someone who looks just like me and you losing their life out
00:00:25here.
00:00:28Even worse than that, it's someone that looks just like us that's doing the killing.
00:00:32Swann, my cousin's got arrested last week for murder.
00:00:35See, that's two young brothers' lives lost.
00:00:39Let me grab that cooler.

00:01:31Bad as fuck.
00:01:33And irony of it is, we live in Atlanta.
00:01:37Birthplace of the MLK, creator of the Civil Rights Movement.
00:01:40I bet Dr. King is turning his grave over at the monument right now, looking at what we've become.
00:01:45Savages.
00:01:47I'm telling you, that's why I'm just trying to stack my paper, get this car, pay my way through college,
00:01:53and get out of these streets.
00:01:54Once I get my degree in graphic design, I'm going to start my own company.
00:01:58Become an entrepreneur?
00:02:00Hell, I might even make it on the cover of Black Enterprise one day.
00:02:03This is my best friend, Dolo.
00:02:05We've been thick as thieves ever since we were kids.
00:02:08You sound crazy here.

00:04:05Let's go water!
00:04:10You buy a cooler, $16.98 at Walmart, save money, live better.
00:04:33You get a bag of ice, $4.00.
00:04:4340 waters, $5.36 each.
00:04:53See, it's not only water we're selling, we're offering people an opportunity to support the
00:04:58inner-city kids who are trying to do something positive.

00:05:32Hot out here, I need that water!
00:05:34All right, so listen, this is not about this water.
00:05:37It's about you doing what you need to do with the money, eh?
00:05:39Yeah.
00:05:40All right?
00:05:40You need change?

00:05:50How may I help you today?
00:05:51I'm just out here selling water.
00:05:53Oh, brother, you're not just selling water.
00:05:55You're running your business.
00:05:56This $60 is an investment in your future business.
00:06:00We believe in you.
00:06:02All right, king.
00:06:16All right, king.
00:06:21We were constantly competing for corners with other water buds and drug dents.
00:06:43This is June.
00:06:44Him and his crew move different than us.
00:06:46They pack guns, sell drugs, and behave like criminals.
00:07:02Unfortunately, this was just the cost of doing business.
00:07:07We had to watch our backs any time that it was around, they would be out here trapping
00:07:17in bright daylight, and 12 wasn't doing nothing about it.
00:07:36Let's go water!
00:07:39Let's go water!
00:07:58This is Lil' Zoo, the neighborhood drug dealer and all around Goon.
00:08:08He made nothing all day, man.
00:08:12Hell, he lying.
00:08:13So you mean to tell me you out here all day and you ain't make nothing?
00:08:17Come on with my cut, man.

00:08:29Him and Zoo gang running terrible on these streets.
00:08:33Yes, sir.
00:08:34We don't lie, Juke.
00:08:35Oh, boy.
00:08:37Yo.
00:08:39Hey, man.

00:08:47Don't ever tell me that I don't know why your money's taking us, bitch.
00:08:49Can't we got that fire on us?
00:08:51Mm-hmm.
00:08:52This ain't playing.
00:08:54Ready to do it.
00:08:56They were one of the most murderous gangs in the whole city.
00:09:05They were known for hitting licks and killing folks.
00:09:12Lil' Zoo would never hesitate to bust his gun.
00:09:21All these niggas out here, y'all trying to fuck with us, man.
00:09:23It's my block, Lil' Bro.
00:09:24You know I need to end on everything.
00:09:26Although Jun and his crew was trapped, they knew not to even try with the zoo.
00:09:29See what I'm saying?
00:09:31I need to end on that, too.
00:09:45Hey, y'all.

00:10:02Especially now that you, Miss Officer.
00:10:06When you gonna let me take you on the date or something?
00:10:08When you about 20 years older.
00:10:11Well, then you'll be too old for me by the end.
00:10:14Oh, you done tried it.
00:10:16You know, black don't crack around here.
00:10:17Yeah, I know.
00:10:19So what about me?
00:10:24Good, sweetie?
00:10:25Yeah.
00:10:26Yeah, I'm good.
00:10:30Y'all be safe around here.
00:10:31Sure.
00:10:32Come on.
00:10:36Come on.
00:10:36Let's get back to work.
00:10:38Don't forget about a date.
00:10:40Got it.
00:10:45What the hell we doing about Lil' Zulu?
00:10:46I ain't worried about it.
00:10:48I keep telling y'all we need a fire.
00:10:51Oh, see, that's playing right into their hands, my brother.
00:10:53If you live by the gun, you die by the gun.
00:10:55Yeah, he go without it, my brother, shit.
00:10:57Man, go on without it.
00:10:58Y'all, I think don't go right, though.
00:11:00We do need some protection on him.
00:11:03Man, no, we don't.
00:11:04When you have a gun, it creates gun problems.
00:11:06And?
00:11:06Well, look, I'd rather be called withy than without it.
00:11:10Hell yeah.
00:11:11Whatever.
00:11:13Hey.
00:11:15Shelling water, bro.
00:11:17Why are we so gangster?
00:11:18Water!
00:11:22Water!
00:11:35Tonight, Mayor Thomas held a press conference regarding
00:11:38the out-of-control street vendors called the Water Boys.
00:11:42You may have seen them on your local street corner
00:11:45selling ice-cold beverages.
00:11:47But some say they have a much more sinister motive.
00:11:50You may also recall that 17-year-old Christopher Hearns
00:11:54was slain over a minor dispute with a fellow Water Boy.
00:11:57Here's what Mayor Thomas had to say.
00:12:01Now, we are all four young people embracing the entrepreneurial spirit.
00:12:08However, what will not be tolerated is the mob-like mentality
00:12:14some young men have displayed.
00:12:16There have been assaults, car thefts, and unfortunately, a teenager was killed.
00:12:25Now, my office and I, we are working on resolutions to end this type of behavior.
00:12:36Hey, Mama.
00:12:37Hey.
00:12:38How you doing?
00:12:40I am tired.
00:12:43Been out here working double shifts and all I get in the mail is a stack of damn bills.
00:12:59Where you get that from?
00:13:01Selling water.
00:13:02I told you.
00:13:03It's a good hustle.
00:13:04A good hustle.
00:13:06You know what I'm saying?
00:13:10You don't have to do that.
00:13:12Yes, I do.
00:13:14I'm grown now and I need to do my part.
00:13:17Oh, you grown now.
00:13:19A couple little hairs on your face don't make you grown, boy.
00:13:23Oh.
00:13:24Oh.
00:13:24You trying to play?
00:13:26I almost got a full mustache.
00:13:28Look.
00:13:30I see a little something.
00:13:32What you want for dinner?
00:13:34You don't have to cook anything.
00:13:36I'll make something.
00:13:37You gonna cook?
00:13:39Mm-mm.
00:13:40No child of mine is going to bed on top ramen and what's that you make, grilled cheese?
00:13:45You trying to say I can't cook?
00:13:46I didn't say that, but I said what I said.
00:13:52You like the food?
00:13:53Of course.
00:13:57You know, I've been thinking.
00:13:59I'm getting real worried about you selling that wood on them corners.
00:14:03I brought you out here from New York when you was a baby to provide you with a safer environment.
00:14:09Mom, look.
00:14:10There's no way I can make this kind of money.
00:14:13Unless, what, I get like an academic scholarship or something.
00:14:16Rich is super rare.
00:14:17I gotta stack my money up.
00:14:19I know that, but these corners are dangerous.
00:14:23You know, I just read online about the little boy who got shot selling water.
00:14:28Well, there are a few bad seeds in the bunch.
00:14:31Boy, don't be trying to use my quotes against me.
00:14:35I promise you, I'll be safe.
00:14:38College is my only way out.
00:14:41It's our only way out.
00:14:42You gotta where?
00:14:44The trap.
00:14:45The trap?
00:14:46Does this, does this look like the trap to you?
00:14:50Mom.
00:14:51You should see where I grew up.
00:14:52Mom, our house is nice, but there are drug dealers that live right next door.
00:14:55Boy, you've always been smart and ambitious and hardheaded, just like your father.
00:15:06I just wish he could see you.
00:15:11He would be so proud.
00:15:15My ambitions are different, though.
00:15:19Yeah, I know that.
00:15:31Excuse me.
00:16:00My father was murdered in the streets when I was young.
00:16:03I never really dealt with his death.
00:16:06The black community doesn't believe in therapy.
00:16:10I'm sure I needed it.
00:16:12My way of dealing with it was not talking about it, which can't be healthy.
00:16:24Can I get that?
00:16:25I'm better than I ever been.
00:16:27It's because of my melanin.
00:16:30Got superpowers.
00:16:31Heaven sent.
00:16:32It's because of my melanin.
00:16:35I'm better than I've ever been.
00:16:37It's because of my melanin.
00:16:40God's superpowers heaven sent
00:16:43It's because of our melody
00:16:45The black and the berry
00:16:46We live in this sweet life
00:16:47Not afraid to roll the dice
00:16:49To make the power move
00:16:50Despite the haters that want to dim my light
00:16:52That's why we hold each other down
00:16:54Stick tight when there's a fight
00:16:55We keep our feet on solid ground
00:16:57You never drown when the homies are round
00:16:58Cause we kings and queens
00:16:59We fix each other's crown
00:17:00When you're sad and mad
00:17:02We make you laugh

00:17:04Give you a hug and a pound

00:17:58Let's go
00:18:07Let's go
00:18:09After this, I knew it was going to be a hot summer.
00:18:14Police are currently on a city-wide manhunt for a water boy who carjacked a woman on the
00:18:19west side of Atlanta earlier today.
00:18:22This is a...
00:18:24Hey!
00:18:25Hey, Ma.
00:18:27You got some mail on the table.
00:18:43We regret to inform you that your application has been denied.
00:18:50Baby, don't even worry about that.
00:18:53You know things happen exactly the way they're supposed to.
00:18:56And patience is key.
00:18:59I know.
00:19:00Yeah.
00:19:01It's frustrating.
00:19:02I know.
00:19:03You ever thought about applying to local colleges?
00:19:08I really want to go out of state.
00:19:10And I really want you to stay home.
00:19:12I want to get us out of here.
00:19:14At least out of this neighborhood.
00:19:18Yeah, I know.
00:19:20It's like ever since your father passed, you became the man of the house.
00:19:24Mm-hmm.
00:19:26I had to.
00:19:27Who else is going to protect you?
00:19:29Protect me?
00:19:30I ain't no punk now.
00:19:32I can take care of myself.
00:19:35You remember...
00:19:36You remember Marvin?
00:19:38Of course.
00:19:39The only guy you dated since dad?
00:19:41Yes.
00:19:41The only guy and the last guy.
00:19:44Thank God.
00:19:45Hey, you remember that time y'all was arguing in your bedroom and I was sitting outside with
00:19:49the bat?
00:19:50How could I forget?
00:19:52How could I forget?
00:19:53Yeah.
00:19:53He was about to get it.
00:19:55You were eight.
00:19:56Yeah, but I had a cold swing.
00:19:59You did.
00:20:01I love you.
00:20:03I love you too, mama.
00:20:06You know, I was watching on the news what happened to the water boys.
00:20:12Mom, I told you.
00:20:14I'm good.
00:20:17That stuff just really makes me afraid for you.
00:20:20Remember what you told me?
00:20:22What's that?
00:20:23Fear and faith can't occupy the same space.
00:20:27Yes, but that doesn't mean you intentionally go put yourself in harm's way.
00:20:32Them corners is dangerous.
00:20:35I'll be alright.
00:20:40Will you just humor me and try to get a job doing something else?
00:20:48Okay.
00:20:50Just try it.
00:20:53That hell I am.
00:20:55Hell yeah.
00:20:56I felt my mother's concerns and decided I would give the job her one last try.
00:21:03Do you have any experience in retail?
00:21:07I don't, but I'm a quick learner.
00:21:10Yes.
00:21:11Positive attitude.
00:21:13Do you have any experience in retail?
00:21:17I like to shop.
00:21:21Shopping.
00:21:22Alright, so have you ever been convicted of a crime?
00:21:26Absolutely not.
00:21:28I try my best to avoid trouble at all times.
00:21:30Yes.
00:21:32Yes.
00:21:33That's really good.
00:21:35Have you ever been convicted of a crime?
00:21:47So, what would you consider?
00:21:49A crime?
00:21:50Exactly.
00:21:54That'll be all.
00:21:56Make it a job?
00:21:58Uh, no.
00:22:00Uh, no.
00:22:02Wait.
00:22:03It's because I'm black.
00:22:07Okay.
00:22:09Looks like I've seen everything I need.
00:22:11Congratulations.
00:22:13Welcome aboard.
00:22:14Great.
00:22:15When do I start?
00:22:16Next week, we're gonna start you off part time in the stock room.
00:22:19The stock room?
00:22:20I applied to be the cashier.
00:22:21Oh, I know.
00:22:22But, you know, everyone starts off in the stock room.
00:22:25It's a great learning experience and you'll start at $7.25 an hour.
00:22:29Minimum wage.
00:22:30$7.25?
00:22:32Part time?
00:22:33That's like 150 bucks a week.
00:22:37Math skills.
00:22:38That's good.
00:22:39Yeah.
00:22:40I just want you to take this as a learning experience.
00:22:44Okay?
00:22:44Rome wasn't built in a day and I myself started off in the stock room and, you know, look
00:22:53at me now.
00:23:00He offered me the job.
00:23:02Oh, really?
00:23:03Yeah.
00:23:04Minimum wage though.
00:23:05In the stock room.
00:23:06Part time?
00:23:08$150 a week?
00:23:10I can make that in a couple hours selling water.
00:23:12You dig what I'm saying?
00:23:23As opposed to making $30 a day, sweating it in the stock room at Walmart, I chose to
00:23:28stick to selling water.
00:23:31Hey, look.

00:34:10About what?
00:34:11We want to adopt this corner so that we can make this a safe environment for you all to operate.
00:34:19Without due respect, it's a jungle out here.
00:34:23That's why we keep it steep.
00:34:26Violence is not the answer, young brother.
00:34:28The organization is.
00:34:30So what do you suggest?
00:34:35How about you come to my office and I can explain it to you?
00:34:46We're going to hang out here and observe you guys on this corner, if you don't mind.
00:34:50That's on you.

00:36:40Somebody raised you, right?
00:36:43That would be my mother.

00:36:49She is.
00:36:51She's my best friend.
00:36:53Aw, that's sweet.
00:36:56What about your dad?
00:36:59He was murdered when I was young.
00:37:05I'm sorry.
00:37:08Yeah, it's been rough, but me and Mom made it through.
00:37:19So, now that y'all out of school, what are your plans?
00:37:23Right now, I'm just hustling.
00:37:25Saving money to get a car so I can go to college.
00:37:28Hustling?
00:37:30I don't date hustlers.
00:37:32Not like that.
00:37:34I sell water.

00:58:19Now this is what I see.
00:58:23So what's going on in your world right now?
00:58:28Things could be better.
00:58:30Why you say that?
00:58:32In these corners are getting dangerous, man.
00:58:37It's like we starting to deal with the same type of drama we would have if we were selling drugs.
00:58:41Yeah, I heard about that shooting on the news.
00:58:44Yeah, that was me.
00:58:46Doing the shooting?
00:58:47No, no, getting shot at.
00:58:50Drew, what is your end game, man?
00:58:52What do you mean?
00:58:53I mean, what do you want to get out of selling this water?
00:58:56I'm just trying to save enough money to get a car so I can enroll in college.
00:59:00What you want to study?
00:59:02Graphic design.
00:59:03So you draw?
00:59:03Yeah.
00:59:05You know how to use a computer?
00:59:06I know how to use my iPad and my iPhone.
00:59:08No, I mean a real computer.
00:59:11Um, no, but look at some of the stuff I've done on my phone.
00:59:17Oh, wow.
00:59:20Dang, bro, this is you?
00:59:21This is impressive.
00:59:25Well, look, I got a graphic design department here.
00:59:28Now, my internship program is a little bit full, but a lot of the kids are going home for the
00:59:33summer.
00:59:34Why don't you fill out the application?
00:59:35I'll put yours on top of the pile.
00:59:37I will.
00:59:40So have you considered going to any local colleges?
00:59:43Nah, I want to go out of state, you know?
00:59:46See something different.
00:59:47Well, if you reconsider, just know I got a little sway around these parts, all right?
00:59:53Okay, I'll keep that in mind.
00:59:54All right.
00:59:55Well, let me go back into this office, brother.
00:59:57But please, make me one promise, Drew.
01:00:02Promise me you're going to be safe on these streets, brother.
01:00:06I will.
01:00:11All right, now.
01:00:13Talk to you.
01:00:19In response to the recent violence surrounding Waterboys, the mayor has ordered a city-wide crackdown.
01:00:28The mayor finally took action to try to shut us down.
01:00:36We will not tolerate these thugs fronting as entrepreneurs terrorizing our street corners.
01:00:44Therefore, I have called an immediate crackdown on the so-called waterboys.
01:00:54If they do not have a vendor's license or behave accordingly, they will not be allowed to sell waters on
01:01:02these corners.
01:01:12We didn't even do nothing to you.
01:01:14What the fuck?
01:01:16Wait, hold on.
01:01:17Hold on.
01:01:18Hold on.
01:01:20I know these kids.
01:01:22I'm going to give them a ride home and give them a nice stern talking to.
01:01:38Get in.
01:01:43You guys going to have to find something else to do.
01:01:48Like what?
01:01:50Sell drugs?
01:01:52There is nothing else out here for us.
01:01:57Name it.
01:02:00Why you think they call it the truck?
01:02:04Once you know.
01:02:06I ain't no eye.
01:02:08I would think the police would muck right outside of selling water and kicking in for a door.
01:02:16Look, I totally understand that.
01:02:19But with all the drama surrounding the waterboys, it's going to be nearly impossible for y'all to continue to
01:02:24operate.
01:02:25At least within Atlanta city limits.
01:02:29I don't swear to have better shit to worry about.
01:02:33Like all the violence in the city.
01:02:35It's Atlanta.
01:02:38I promise you, these little incidents with us, that ain't nothing compared to what's really going on out here.
01:02:43This is true.
01:02:45But once members of the community start flooding the mayor's office with complaints, he has to do something.
01:02:52He's a publicly elected official.
01:02:54Therefore, assertive people.
01:03:00Assertive people, huh?
01:03:04What people?
01:03:06Where these people from?
01:03:08What do these people look like?
01:03:12Because it sure enough don't feel like he'll serve us.
01:03:16Listen, I have a teenage nephew.
01:03:19So I understand what you guys are up against.
01:03:21You are too smart and vicious, young man.
01:03:25So I'm sure y'all figure something out.
01:03:32Think about what I said, all right?
01:03:36Be careful.
01:03:51We didn't have no choice but to keep selling water.
01:03:55We just had to find another corner to stand on.
01:04:10Hey, see, I told you we would be straight.
01:04:14I guess you're all right.
01:04:16Ain't no competition out here.
01:04:17And business is booming.
01:04:19Y'all got to listen to your boys sometime.
01:04:21Well, what up?
01:04:23Oh.
01:04:31What the fuck?
01:04:33Griff don't know, y'all.
01:04:35Y'all got something that you're doing here?
01:04:37Shit, making money.
01:04:39What it look like?
01:04:40Rolling hard, son.
01:04:42Oh, look.
01:04:43I got you.
01:04:44I got you for sure.
01:04:46Oh.
01:04:48Oh.
01:04:49Oh.
01:04:50It's your son tonight.
01:04:54Griff don't need your money.
01:04:56It's my corner.
01:04:57Griff want my corner, baby.
01:04:59Your corner?
01:05:00Boy, you homeless.
01:05:02He ain't got no corner.
01:05:03Yeah?
01:05:05I am Atlanta.
01:05:06Matter of fact, it's money there.
01:05:10Give me all your goddamn...
01:05:11Hey, whoa!
01:05:12Calm down.
01:05:12We ain't got to do this.
01:05:14Boy, we ain't giving you shit.
01:05:16Matter of fact, back your stupid ass up.
01:05:19Boy, I popped your ass out here.
01:05:21Yeah.
01:05:23Griff don't want me, bro.
01:05:24Yeah.
01:05:25I know you don't.
01:05:27So beat it then, nigga.
01:05:33Go on.
01:05:38Boy, I told you I don't need that straw.
01:05:41Where the fuck did you get that?
01:05:43Where about it?
01:05:44We do not need a gun out here.
01:05:46Like hell.
01:05:48You got to get rid of that.
01:05:49No, I don't.
01:05:50Well, y'all true.
01:05:51Y'all saw what just happened.
01:05:52We need that fine.

01:11:13I never felt so much rage in my life. I want it blurred.
01:11:40Baby, you home? I had to work late so it's no dinner, but we could order something.
01:11:50What happened? Whoa, whoa, whoa! What are you doing? What happened?
01:12:00They killed Dolo.
01:12:02Who?
01:12:04Lazoo. The dude who showed up to the party?
01:12:07I see, I see. And what do you plan on doing with that?
01:12:16Baby, no. Killing somebody is not going to bring your friend back.
01:12:22It's only going to cause another black woman to grieve.
01:12:26Baby, I know that you're hurt. And you have every right to be.
01:12:31But violence only begets more violence.
01:12:36I cannot and will not watch you throw your life away in a fit of rage.
01:12:42You're the only thing I got left.
01:12:46All right, all right, all right, all right.
01:12:48Now just calm down.
01:12:51Let me take the gun and let's talk about this.
01:12:56Let's just talk about it.
01:13:01It's going to be all right.
01:13:04I'm so sorry.
01:13:06He's gone.
01:13:08Yeah, he's gone.
01:13:10Oh, no, I know.
01:13:11I know.
01:13:17I'm sorry.
01:13:30It's a sad day for our city, our community, our church, and our family.
01:13:45But you must remember that you are not alone.
01:13:52And Matthew 11 to 28 says, come to me, all of you that are weary and carry heavy burdens,
01:14:09and I will give you rest.
01:14:15Take my yoke upon you.
01:14:19Let me teach you because I am humble and gentle at heart.
01:14:26And you will find rest for your souls.
01:14:33For my yoke is easy to bear.
01:14:40And the burden that I give to you is light.
01:14:47Amen?
01:14:48Amen.
01:14:49Now, Brother Vashon Mitchell is going to sing a wonderful hymn for you guys.
01:14:56And as he sings, we can say our final goodbyes to this young man.
01:15:03Gone way too soon.
01:15:16Greetings, family and friends.
01:15:18I just want to let you know that it won't always be like this.
01:15:21It's turning around for you.
01:15:27Sometimes discouraged, but not defeated, cast down, but not destroyed, there are times I don't understand.
01:15:50But I believe it's turning around for me.
01:15:58But I believe it's turning around for me.
01:16:01I've had struggles and disappointment.
01:16:08It's turning around for me.
01:16:10That time and I felt so alone.
01:16:14I felt so alone.
01:16:16Some of my friends, they let me down.
01:16:23But I still believe
01:16:26It's turning around for me
01:16:32Around for me
01:16:36Around for me
01:16:40Around for me
01:16:43It's turning around for me
01:16:49Around for me
01:16:51Can you just say it into the atmosphere?
01:16:54Around for me
01:16:57Around for me
01:17:00It's turning around for me
01:17:04God is making a way
01:17:08A change is coming the day
01:17:12God is making a way
01:17:16A change is coming for me
01:17:20If I stay strong
