Hell naw, I feel paranoid as fukk when up in evergreen park, a chicago suburb.

For those who don't know, that's the wack ass mufukkas who robbed the lil Jackie Robinson baseball team of their championship.

Mufukkas see dreads and a hoodie and its a wrap...be getting those "he finna steal something" looks.

 

[VelourSocks]

Because there’s no nikkas

 

[Bawon Samedi]

Living wit the whites one big house and not another nikka in sight.

 

[AmenhotepIV]

Gotta be extra cautious...

 

[The Fade]

Well they don't wave when they see it's a nikka driving by. Their facial expressions are hilarious.

I grew up around a lot of mogs who said shyt like that. turns my stomach to this day

read between the lines and some of those same kind of people post here

 

[Fly]

I feel "safe" because I know not one of them would dare try me, most cacs i come across are too afraid to even look me in the eye

yall really out here scared of cave pigs?

 

[Arcavian]

I'm in the U.S. black belt region...

So I'm good ether way. It'll be like any other day. I keep telling yall the problem is wit all these folks who want to live around cacs. Everytime you hear about a police shooting check the demographics of the city %90 chance it's folks trying to live around cacs. I grew up in a city were African Americans ran damn near everything. My city is +80% AA and I can go down the hwy into the county and disappear even further if need be.



The people wit the probs are those who want to float around in places like Seattle, LA, Vegas, Milwaukee, Chicago, Connecticut, NYC, etc

So why are you black and not living in Atlanta?

Let cacs govern over your locality then complain how they treat you bruhs
(this shyt is damn near a science)

[yardman]

My lil bro been living in the burbs for a hot lil minute now and he's had cacs try to run him over with cars on several occasions. Oh yeah the area he lives in is republican he told me about how during the election people had Trump signs on their lawns.​

 

[Rollo Goodlove]

I didn't grown up fearing white people so I never noticed why i felt safer in the white hoods

 

[duncanthetall]

I live in a little suburban area. I like it because the police station is literally a quarter mile down the road, and they've helped me out on a few occasions. And it's just so fukking quiet here. Nothing but young professionals and old people all going about their day minding their own business. I'm not the only black person in my complex, but I'd say probably 25% of people here are POC. Which isn't bad for Kentucky. I enjoy not having music playing loud or nosy neighbors or kids running around fukking shyt up at all hours. It's peaceful.

I will say in regards to this kinda stuff my biggest gripe is with folks near both of the extremes...

1. Those who grew up around extreme poverty & violence
Why? My prob with them revolves around the extent to which they assume the hell they went through growing up is the same for all(most) AAs.
Typified by...

• Not wanting to live around black people cause they are tired of "da hood".
• Wanting to move out to the suburbs around cacs.
• Complaining about AAs as a group when referring to specific negative subgroups.

2. Those who grew up away from other African Americans in white suburbs.
Why? My prob with them revolves around the extent to which they have a cac image of AAs who they never grew up or lived around.
Typified by...

• Having the same talking points as cacs as concerns AAs
• Believing that what they see in rap videos and on the evening news from their couch in white suburbs is the totality/majority of AA life. (similar to AAs who only think ...safari, "tribes", ebola, & conflict as concerns Africa cause thats all cac media shows them)
• Believing that there are only three types of AAs. Rich AAs, AAs like themself who live in white suburbs, and poor ghetto dwelling AAs.(basically they act like if they weren't rich or didn't live around cacs they would have to live in violent slums)

I have a prob with both for different reasons. As I said numerous times I grew up in a "financially integrated" neighborhood in a city thats 80ish% African American, Birmingham AL. Now were there problem people? Sure, but anybody who knows anything knows that folks who about that kinda life only really mess with other into the same shyt. I'm not worried the auto repair man down the street is going to shoot the postal worker
(...though a little bruh hated when project kids would steal bikes while you sleeping or gone from home. Gotta wait till Christmas and shyt for a new bike )
Anyway, it's not until you can make a proper analysis of the dynamics of AA life(which is what @BlackPrint is stating isn't happening) that you are able to make targeted programs for those bad apples.(If everybody is broken then you don't know who you should fix first ...or more importantly who's reliable)
