Ray Lewis Doing His Best To Help Others In Baltimore

ARTICLE FROM espn.com (Full story click here)

“One Man’s Opinion” By Gordon Curvey

In the story above, NFL player and future Hall Of Famer Ray Lewis shows he is not just a big and rough NFL linebacker of many years in the NFL. He is showing that he cares about people and wants to do his part to help others in the city of Baltimore.

He takes time from his busy day or night and holds exercise classes and talks to young youth about staying in school and away from gangs and and other positive things. But not only that he talks to older folks too.

He is using his name to reach back and help. It is great to see. When you see the video here on “M.I.C News Magazine” you can see Lewis really really cares about what he is doing. He is passionate about his community work.

To many times when the media talks about Lewis other than his football life, they talk about his past problems with the law. This is very unfair in my opinion.

To many times, when it comes to African Americans and people of color, the media will talk about the NEGATIVE things African Americans do. What about the POSITIVE things like giving out thousands of turkeys at Thanksgiving time, or giving out gifts at Xmas time, or starting a camp during the summer for the kids. Or giving thousands to start a new community center in the inner city.

But let a African American maybe beat up their girlfriend or wife or maybe get caught with drugs or lead a dog fighting ring etc, it is all over the place. This is unfair.

At “Music Inner City News Magazine” we will make a point to feature more positive stories on people of color. Of course we will have to have a story now and then when we criticize a few folks but mostly we will stay positive when it comes to people of color.

A special shout out goes out to Ray Lewis and the positive work he is doing in Baltimore!!
