STREET BEAT: ‘What do you think is society’s biggest problem?’

Corey Washington
Los Angeles
“Division among the so-called classes. The differences in the treatment that people receive on a day-to-day basis stems back generations.”
Calvert Sims
Inglewood
“The Bible says the people perish from lack of knowledge. Based upon what’s happening today, I believe that’s why we continue to falter.”
Alvin Ruiz
Los Angeles
“Lack of empathy. As a society, we have lost the ability to feel for one another and put ourselves in other people’s shoes. Everything is about looking out for one’s self.”
Marilyn Huff
Los Angeles
“Housing and health care. If you don’t have a place lay your head down at night or you’re sick, nothing else matters.”
