Tuff Art Media is grateful to have filmed the 4th Annual Stop the Killing Basketball Tournament in Harlem, USA organized by Aaliyah Guillory--Nickens (@therealliyahhb) on 08/10/24. Aaliyah says, "This is more than basketball, it’s about introducing a community based approach to the violence we experience in our neighborhoods. When addressing gun violence rather than resorting to incarceration and more police officers we must resort to commUNITY. We can pour into each other and uplift one another in ways that will promote peace, positivity & love."
"Part of our mission statement is to restore our community and center our youth and this weekend was a prime example of just that. Youth aren’t just the future they’re the present so now is the time to start investing in them. It’s so crucial to create these safe spaces for people to come out, enjoy themselves, feel loved and support a good cause."
