also gentrification forgets stuff over. the entire area in bedstuy where i used to live just got completely whitified by hipster restaurants and all these healthy juice bars. when my family moved out the rent was manageable, but all my friends that used to live there got forced out by like, 3500 a month rent and had to move into sunset park. this type of stuff means you gotta change schools, gotta change your commute, spend money moving all your stuff out, etc.

its not directly a tribal move on anyone's part but it definitely forgets over people of color more than anything

And I'm not going to type out my same responses again, so we're at an impasse, if you actually wanted to participate the discussion about those topics, you should have taken part in the previous 3 to 4 pages.

I know, forget me for responding to your question! I should've pulled a Red Spy and posted a cringey reaction meme.

I'm saying that they need to fix this problem from within their own community, and with all of these inherent institutional inequities being lifted, they have nothing holding them back from prospering, you would have seen a dramatic uptake in the annual salary of african american families.

The thing is, poverty cycle and all, they're not getting very good educations. Partly the fault of gangsta culture in poor neighborhoods seeing that the way out of poverty is to sell drugs and rob people, or the off-chance that they'll make it in the NBA. Uneducated people don't know how to properly break the cycle. That's why it keeps happening; that's why it's a cycle.

Yes, forget you. Because you retreaded the same ground that we've already discussed at length about, I'm not about to repeat everything I've said. If you wanted to hear my opinion on your questions, you could literally look at them on the previous pages.
