Excerpt:
What inspired the name “The Yard people”?
I grew up in a yard. When I mean a yard, I mean face me I face you where everybody knows everybody’s issues. So, I wanted to grow my children in that way, like everybody is concerned with what is happening with everybody. In the yard, everybody is closer to everybody. Everybody raises everybody’s child and is interested in building each other up. I want us to have that close-knit relationship like they’re my guys.
