Boston is 26% Black (Unofficial Boston Thread LFGI)

Honestly, I have mixed feelings about Boston and Massachusetts as a state. It does have a 
vibe to it. Same could be said about nyc and the whole tri state area around it depending on where you go. I'm a bit biased about the nyc area but Boston seems cool overall. After my two trips over there to Boston, its growing on me. Same as how DC did but nowhere beats the NYC area. Maybe Miami but NYC and the surrounding area is hard to beat.
The vibe I also got is that the powers that be pretty much likes to amplify certain groups and silence other groups. I basically couldn't find any rap or r&b stations on Boston except for one that played both. I thought that was odd among other things I noticed. It is very segregated and they do a good job covering whatever issues Boston has. I dont have family or know anybody over there so I had to go by what I seen, gathered and was told in convo by people i spoke to while traveling over there.
But yeah, it's worth the trip considering they got legal weed. Heard they got cannabis cafes that's supposed to be opening up soon.

It's not the hatred of foreigners that makes them not acknowledge AA history and contributions in Boston and New England. Some individuals just don't know. I've been heavy in the history debates/discussions since I've joined the site and each ethnic group/nationality has people who know about their history/culture and those who don't.
While everybody should be proud of who they are and where their people come from, this online flag waving stuff is just surface level. I saw it among Haitians during the bicentennial, saw it among different African/Caribbean groups during anniversary of independence, and we are witnessing elements of it in the modern era online.
Person who didn't know or care about their history before, isn't going to start now. That's why you have a Nigerian American OP having to correct/explain to some people about African American history in Boston.

As in Salem witch hunts ??
Perhaps
it was never about bashing ADOS, the article son put up I wasn't too sure about because in my experience every black I personally know here is doing ight be it ADOS, carribean, or African. Again if your job is to talk shyt with no actual contribution to this thread you can leave and get the fukk up outta here
Check my post history as being a year removed from college I'm doing solid on my own so eat shyt
I’ll be in Boston next summer and I’ll come to your city and fukk all your hoes stop bruh

im sorry beloved I dunno why the AADOS family is behind read (non-immigrant black) despite going to the same schools as us
I know you just graduated college so you should understand basic reading comprehension. Your quote above was definitely a shot at AADOS. You just said ADOS is behind yet now you’re saying theyre doing all right. Which is it?
You didn’t even read the article first but you made that assumption.

It wasn't a shot. You're reading into to much. I should have said guessed because if you read the article it describes the exact group of black people they're referring to and even then I still don't believe that article in its entirety
I highly doubt the median income is that low as well. Just felt like you were trying to say ADOS kids are behind non-ADOS.Ight pull up if you can keep up that is

I’m not with that division shyt. I have Africans and Caribbean friends that I’d do anything for but I don’t like when the former and latter tries to shyt on us.
Boston? Nah I'm good player

I'm from Texas but have lived in the Boston area since 2007. Top 3 most racist places Ive been to. Brehs mistake smashing "pawgs" for equality
Boston proper maybe 26% black but we know all the whites live in all the little suburbs around the city. Boston had the fewest black middle class neighborhoods of any major city.
Boston. Racism. Image. Reality: The Spotlight Team takes on our hardest question

this is so true. Nothing against brehs who’re socially awkward and focused on their studies, but sistas from MIT and Harvard were easy to bag for regular brehs from the hood in Cambridge, since many of the women at these school thought their male classmates were squares.
Back then I was on some attention whore male thot shyt
And I use to run shirtless thru Brookline and Brighton to work out
White hoes would cat call me
I got #s just doing that
-----
I had a gym membership
At this expensive ass fancy gym off Commonwealth Ave right down from Bos Univ
The main cardio area had a big ass window where people could watch u work out from the sidewalk
Hoes would tap on the window to get my attention and have their # written on a sheet of paper
shyt happened a few times too
1 time this white dude tapped me to get me to look cause I wasn't paying attention
So I could read the note the Bih was holding
That 1 moment in time
I was like
You aight sometimes white guys
