My NYC Black Folk......Gentrification

[koyaanisqatsi]

This is a shame, especially in Harlem. I bet you if some white historical area was getting over run by nikkas there would be state representatives and senators all up there trying blockade shyt.

and thats why brothers need to learn how to ORGANIZE

 

[koyaanisqatsi]

Hell no. Hipsters know better than to touch anywhere east of Flatbush. By the way NY cats ever notice the new begger trend of having some kind of animal with them in hopes of luring more donaters? I notice every one of them wanna have dogs laying with them and some of them have apartments n sht.

they been doing that shyt for years and years . . . Tompkins Square park in the early 90s looked like I Am Legend

New York City was white before it was black

It's a cycle breh, things change people rearrange

If you dont outright own the land, don't be shocked

fixed

NYC is way overpriced any damn way, might as well let those hipsters eat, not like all of the black folks are going to leave anyway

This is more the issue than Gentrification, you have the wealthy and super rich cacs pushing the middle class and young professional cacs out of Manhattan because its too overpriced. So those middle class and young professional cacs are moving into parts of Brooklyn and Queens that are in close proximity to midtown and downtown Manhattan. By them moving in the blacks or other minorities that originally lived in those are basically forced to move out because they can't compete financially with the middle class and young professional cacs. Those blacks and other minorities move further out in Brooklyn and Queens forcing the people who originally lived there to have to move out the city and go south. Its sort of a trickle down effect.

bushwick is hipster city now smh

Yeah, I used to rest on Starr St. and St. Nicholas Ave. I drove by there a year ago when I was back in town, and I barely recognized it. More hipsters than cockroaches.

Williamsburg Hipsters Flowing Out of the Subway - YouTube

I couldn't tell what stop that was. If I had to harbor a guess I would say that was probably Lorimer St. on the L, by that Kellogg's restaurant. memories.

But thats when the gentrification shyt started. Hipsters have always been in Brooklyn and remember not all of Brooklyn is hood.

Yeah, it started in Greenpoint in the 90s. My man and his wife had to leave an apartment that they were paying like $750 a month cause there was some trustafarian who was willing to pay twice that a month. The landlord was basically like "yo, I'm not tryin to put you out, but I need to "

They were up there for a minute. You could track them on the L train. used to be that after Lorimer St. on the L train, all the hipsters was gone. Now they're on all the way to my old stop, Myrtle/Wyckoff, maybe even beyond that.

Damn it's that serious now?

Only in Williamsburg Brooklyn - YouTube

Damn hipsters are taking over.

Bedford Ave. stop... That was like their headquarters for a hot minute before they started getting bold and coming further inland.

Thats a nikka w/a lot of stress just looking for someone to take it out on. I feel worse for him than her, that shyt was embarrasing

I agree. I've seen nikkas like this before. Probably got some loudmouthed fat broad at home that he don't even like but got like 2-3 kids by her, a deadend job that he hates. But he won't flex on the woman or his boss, who are the main ones causing him stress. So he busts out on the lil white chick and feels

Nope not buying it. For a girl to get called ugly and be told that's the reason why she got no man and is sitting on the subway by herself at 3 AM is ferocious Fernando Vargas

Word? Last time I was up top, they was all in the surrounding areas of Knickerbocker. Where Flushing and Knickerbocker meet, they all in those new lofts where factories used to be.
