If asked to name codes of the streets that for decade’s minorities have been following in their neighborhoods, the average person would say “No snitching, loyalty and ride for what you believe in.” Ask the same question to a police officer that’s trained to work in our communities, protecting the people they would say “No snitching, and hate cops.” It is a sad fact: Most people that get into the streets as a way to survive or to get rich quick, know little of what they’re getting into, and police officers know very little about the people that they are dealing with on a daily basis. God has built certain laws into his universe, our world, and these laws are not respected by man. Too often wrongly motivated people harness the right laws for the wrong purpose. While rightly motivated people assume that sincerity and diligence are sufficient for success. Therefore our society doesn’t get the right results for the right purpose because they aren’t harnessing the right laws. In turn those born in poverty and live with the struggle had to create their own laws and codes to survive, so I want to discuss these codes that are absolute in this world. In the street following and understanding these codes will assure one tremendous growth in life. Out here you either use them and find them working for you, or you will ignore them and find them working against you. As so many people continue to live in poverty, life continuously gets overwhelming. Poverty creates ignorance, and ignorance generates hates, both are compounds by the skewed but powerful impression of the streets from the media where the negative image often outweighs the positive. Consequently some individuals accept the negative images surrounding them, especially in the media. However the images produces by these outsiders have been filtered through racial misconception and fantasies of the dominant society, which has tended to deny the still going on struggles of those in poverty, leaving those people wanting more. There is an undeniable need to educate those individuals that choose the life of the streets over school. We often are quick in forming desires which often take directions, conflicting with one another leading to the carnage we see every day in the streets, which all extents from a lack of understanding and guidance in this game we play. Here we have “The 10th Code”. The collection of street codes presented by Rainie Williams offering a panorama of codes that should be understood about the streets, if one chooses to take that route. In offering the opportunity to broaden one’s knowledge beyond the standard presentation of the street codes like “No Snitching” and “Loyalty”. The 10th codes is a valuable resource for people of all foundations to get an understanding of how to survive in this eccentric world we call the streets. Not to create better criminals, but better thinkers. Some of the names mentioned will be familiar to the reader, most of them confined to a small circle of people who have not been described in other biographical or hood historical work. In conclusion, the greatness of the streets is that, despite physical oppression and psychological assaults, many still manage to create a way out of nothing when their goals seem unreachable.
