It's very common for the Black community to stick together for warmth, because everyone is a child of a poor family. In a chaotic community, if people don't help each other, it's easy to end up dead on the street.
That's why AI always has people to support, because when he was in prison, it was his group of good brothers who helped take care of his family.
