And yet there are still fools who will still argue against reperations. Everything in this country is designed to destroy and kill black folks. Literally everything.
This is why I can't shyt on Obama.
Dude has put more black people in high gov't jobs than anyone else. It matters.
funny shyt is that they have ACTUAL quotes from these people advocating this...its not even up for debate

Robert Moses was the true devil. He built the Cross Bronx Expressway, one of the most expensive highways ever built ( 1 million dollars per mile) in the middle of the BX and cut whole neighborhoods in half. Its the reason why the South Bronx became a CESS POOL in the 70s and 80s. When he was building the damn Triboro bridge, he knocked down entire neighborhoods of underclass working folks and forced them out. People used to think he loved highways and cars more than people. Dude was sociopath.

Most of us have no idea how EXTREMELY DEEP & ELABORATE systemic oppression is. This is an example. Dope thread OP

Built highways through neighborhoods. fukk man.
On another note, it explains why some places have such highway traffic problems. By ruining the black communities to avoid the white ones, they placed the highways in inefficient places. Look at Boston. The north south interstates should be running through the heart of the city, not the easternmost downtown sector. That shyt ended up costing them over a billion dollars and 20 years to fix

Overtown? Didn't 95 pretty much destroy that neighborhood?
Been trying to tell people about this. It was worsened by the insurance and home loan lobby and Fannie Mae. It wasn't even a conspiracy, it was downright blatant and is well documented, yet people still deny it and say its not true. You can't just reverse this overnight when trillions have been spent on the process of oppression, yet you expect the next day for things to be equal.
