A world without crime, hate, depression is a place, which may seem to be highly unachievable in today’s society. However, a place where there is happiness, forgiveness and a sense of belonging can be accomplished. In today’s society there is still a linger hatred for people of color, gender and social status.

In this life of crime, there is an endless cycle between prisons and freedom. If the program was implanted, poor and high crime communities from all around the country would
