Today we speak with gulf coast soul band The Suffers from Houston, Texas. Many of the perceptions of Houston are parallel with those we have here in The Bronx - about our education, our crime rates and who we are as residents. Through their music, The Suffers seeks to change that. Bassist Adam Castaneda explains.
