The young men and women engaging in crime and drugs in “disadvantaged communities” will continue their self-destructive acts and crimes against other people until they come to believe that THEY ARE INDEED SOMEBODY, with a history and legacy from persons who were the noblest of them all, as they provided their labor to build what is now the greatest most powerful country in the world!  There is little likelihood that the chains of their negative self-destructive behavior can be broken unless they can come to know AND BELIEVE the history of the power of their ancestors.  The CBJ Institute says to them: YOU are part of our extended family.  And, the Institute seeks to provide you with knowledge about YOUR own history to empower YOU TO BE THE VERY BEST THAT YOU CAN BE!!                Dr. Clarence B.
