It’s virtually impossible to pay rent on $8/hr. And when you are teenage boy in a fatherless home (his dad passed away), there is a drive to be “the man of the house.” To help your mom. And what makes money fast when a full time job doesn’t pay enough to live? Selling weed. /3 — PolitiTweet.org

Let me give you a real life example that I’ve encountered often (wording vaguely to protect people). Growing up I was friends w/ a boy who was the son of a single mom. They struggled to pay rent. As we know, hourly work doesn’t pay a living wage - especially then. /2 — PolitiTweet.org

For Black & Brown communities, especially in the era of criminalization, the choice to sell weed of course is a risky one - not just w/ police, but with those you get tied up with. Yet when a teenage boy believes the other option is homelessness, they may take the chance. /4 — PolitiTweet.org
