I'm well aware of the racial dynamics in this country which is why I said you have to pick where to be a second-class citizen. I don't think Seattle is a utopia, I just like the vibes.
I will research its future role with prisons. I appreciate the heads up.

SF is such a beautiful city too. The districts of hunters post, Lakeview, Filmoe, were all predominantly black districts of SF that had their own charm amidst the blue collar to poor socio economic class of black folks. San Francisco’s dwindling black population is literally one of the most upsetting things to me. @murksiderock @LunaticVillage415can black folks even prosper in california considering how expensive it is to live there?!?

I can't do Cali, I feel like I would raising sons that are some c00ns lol. I love San Diego, I just cant raise kids there.
I was talking with my girl about east vs west coast. People on the East Coast tend to be more upfront and direct how they feel about you whereas the West Coast they are more covert about it and play nice more or less. Now mesh that with racism and how covert it can be under a "nice" veil from someone that is supposed to be nice to everyone.
I sort of understand why some folks like 'their racism out in the open'.
Dave Chappelle made a joke about racism in the US and how certain regions package it differently.
I'd say the West Coast is good for Black folks that are in tech, but it seems that the South is an economic strong bet for Black Folks in everything else. Combined with a lower COL and generally a stronger cultural epicenter than that of many spots in the West Coast more Blacks will choose the South.
No offense but I've met a few c00ns from California. You know the type...the performative Black leftist "ally" for others that are pro everything else BUT the progress of Black folks while their community is getting displaced by other groups.
Not to say that's indicative of all the brothas from the west coast though because I know that's not true, but I've definitely met a few pockets of them. Maybe that West Coast weather got them soft
Well damn lol
You used to go up for VA Beach regularly on here what changed your mind?
Right, they do teach about slavery, but that black folks benefitted off of it.
New Florida standards teach that Black people benefited from slavery because it taught useful skills
The standards, which were blasted by a statewide teachers' union as a "step backward," were approved Wednesday by the State Board of Education.

It did fukking pass, that poster doesnt know what hes talking about.Niigga I didn’t lie…
They have been talking about Florida and slavery and AP classes for at least 2.5 or three years now.
I don’t know if it passed or not because I don’t live out there, but there is no way I’m lying about that bum ass state
We have never had any bullshyt discussion for our children’s education trying to downplay slavery like Florida.

Florida's new history standards say that African Americans benefited from slavery. Florida educators, including social studies teacher Jorje Botello, are furious about it.
