Ayo niccas wasn't exaggerating about this Brooklyn Gentrification

[BaggerofTea]

We don't invest in our own infrastructure

The End Days of Mystery Babylon ( America ) are coming anyway. And when the Cacs are destroy themselves I'ma be sippin' some mango juice in Haiti on the Beach.

yup....

So what do you call affluent blacks moving into a place formerly inhabited by rural whites?


As it's defined by the CDC.



What would you consider Baldwin Hills and View Park-Windsor Hills in LA... they weren't affluent and black until housing laws changed and wealthy blacks pushed whites out.

Monterey Park,CA was gentrified by Asians starting in the 70's

For starters, a rural neighborhood or area isnt necessarily run down by virtue of it being rural. Secondly, the characterization of rich black people moving into PG replacing rural whites is nonsense... While PG has a sizeable black upper and middle class, there is no evidence to suggest that they moved in to the neighborhood after they acquired their relative wealth. PG has historically alwaysnhad a black population

You're dancing around this breh... How exactly did these specific PG County black communities attain such affluence?

Do you think the numerous black athletes who've made millions of dollars playing for sports teams... lived in those communities before they got rich?

What about all the educated blacks who've got degrees from DC and MD universities... don't you think they had to have jobs before they purchased homes?


Riddikk Bowe has lived in Fort Washington for years.... but you'd be a fool to think he ended up there without his boxing money.

**puts on yamuka**

Pardon me, young fella. I think I might be able to explain it. White people have several major neuropsychological differences as compared to the dark races.

The first would be their dampened and sometimes completely inactive mirror neurons. Mirror neurons are found in almost all apes and they underlie such things as empathy, learning and mimicry. When you watch someone do something your mirror neurons are firing and your body is primed to repeat or copy the same movement.

Mirror neurons are also the underlying physiology of empathy as they literally allow you to quite literally feel somebody elses pain. In a recent study, black people had the highest mirror neuron response and white people had the lowest, with a large number showing no response.

Interesting.

 

[Oceanicpuppy]

Didn't they have the neighborhood first though long ago?

 

[606onit]

can we get some visuals in threads like these? What are the streets looking like?

 

[Mr.Big Meat McGee]

ehhkk yes. They also have malfunctioning pineal glands which is why they have a complete inability to see themselves as part of the greater human landscape. They lack a certain conciousness so to speak. It is my belief that this is also why white philosophy has never really encroached on the zen Buddhism mentality that native american, african, indian, and asian philosophies did long ago

Hmm. I blame their Neanderthal DNA and Genetic Mutations. Now it all makes sense to me. No wonder they use to drugs such as LSD and other things to feel / figure out things other races have already learned centuries ago.

Williamsburg has been white since the early 2000s. Most of the "downtown Brooklyn" area was taken over a few years ago. Ft Greene is now basically all white except for the public housing. Greenpoint is gone, and Bed Stuy is next. Crown Heights is almost there as well.

I work for an investment bank and we had a social event... In fukking Carroll Gardens at a shuffleboard place! Hipster paradise.

I live in probably the whitest area of the city (TriBeCa) but am amazed at how much the overall city changes every month

Really didn't realize how violent the city was back then. No wonder mom dukes didn't want us outside unless it was with her of family

Most of Brooklyn is just becoming an extension of Downtown Manhattan.

There is no space left downtown, so they are all pushing towards Brooklyn as the next logical step.

Those same people are also moving into Harlem and Washington Heights quickly, with Inwood not too far behind. It's crazy the amount of change I see every single time I go up there.

I'll give you guys a quick example out of that 168th street station...

You had a "Banco Popular" out there, which has been replaced by a "Bank of America"

"Johns Fried Chicken" and "Crown Fried Chicken" had to go, "Popeye's" is in there now

Chipotle and Starbucks have moved into Washington Heights

MetroPCS and small cell phone shops recently had to move out of spots, what pops up? Sprint and T-Mobile and I think the Verizon store is still out there.

"Bravo" Supermarket I think closed up last time I checked, I expect a Kroger/Target or something similar out there in no time.

I would assume some one of those bodeges anywhere from 168th-179th street will be replaced with a 7-11 soon. I can't even imagine what the bus terminal off the GW Bridge is going to look like once its finally cleaned up and ready to move in.

A couple of local pizza shops closed up, Lil Caesars, Dominos, and Papa Johns all have locations in the heights now.

The entire landscape of Manhattan and Brooklyn is changing rapidly. it almost feels like a different neighborhood from what I grew up in, but I am in my 30's now

I have a really, really hard time believing cacs gonna run Dominicans out the Heights

 

[Harry B]

The white population in Brooklyn has increased by 2.6 percentage points in 20 years from 46.9% to 49.5%, while the black has decreased by 2.1 from 37.9 to 35.8.

So BK as a whole is not the big of problem, it's the segregation, white people are dominating the areas close to Manhattan while the blacks moving further out. Of course they are just getting started but hopefully when this gentrification shyt is reaching its peak we will be in a better position to "fight back".

 

[Mike Ock]

Yup...when I was in park slope, and fort green I didn't see no blacks hardly .

Chinatown is becoming gentrified now too. It goes to show that even when u practice group economics , cacs can still take over ur neighborhood

Parkslope always been a heavy white area. Fort Greene still got black fold still in the area. Sad thing is when you clearly see the contrast in living as the a lot of the black and latinos live in the PJ's and directly across the street white folks live in the brownstones(which majority rent), small apt buildings or condos.

Also before Williamsburg became hipster, I remember it being a mostly latino area if anything.
