I know you have to be a SOUL-JA to travel state to state and not feel respected everywhere you go. It may be because of your color, religion, or the way you talk, and I'm not just talking about the neighborhoods either. So many times I just wanted to bust out and show my ignorance but I always remembered that I'm bigger & better than the ignorance that at times consumed my people and crippled our youth.

In the mist of all my anger and emotion came C.W.K. GEAR (Clothing With Knowledge). C.W.K. Gear is a hidden form of communication. My clothing line is label with many messages that gives respect to my elders, scream messages of hope, and provide knowledge to youth in a stylish way. C.W.K. GEAR takes the ignorance and turns in into knowledge when you find yourself in those stereotype situations.
