Maddox: I was born and raised on the South Side. During the time that I grew up, everyone on the block knew each other. Everyone got along. We weren't worried about no one getting robbed or beat up or shot, like you see today. It was like a family environment—we could go to each other's homes and eat and hang out and play with the other kids safely. We rode our bikes up and down the street and didn't have a care in the world. We were able to just be children.
