re: BR Native Tim Parrish writes book on growing up in BR

This book came out way before Charleston, way before Ferguson, way before Baltimore. This book is the truth and it is fact. I was in the same neighborhood, same school and same environment as the author. If you can't handle the truth, which is our truth, don't reduce yourself to calling people names. This is way it was in those days. Our historical story needs to be respected just as much as anyone's.
