White millionaire takes 20 years to turn ghetto into a middle class neighborhood

Amazing what happens when you just spend the money direct and not fukk around with skimming middlemen/politicians and red tape.

Also why so many are against real cash reparations.

Interesting how the crime also went down.

Context is key here. I’m not talking about an individual earning millions. We’re talking about money being spent on a social program essentially. The U.S spends $2 trillion annually on social programs and results in damn near nothing.

True. But the cities get more doing the opposite of dude. Create ghettos and foster crime and chaos. Fines, bail, financial hardships which means taking and selling folks property, if they had a home taken from them and resell it…. So demonic

What do y’all think gentrification is?

The old houses they tear down for ugly apartments and Starbucks were valuable. No one wanted to invest until it looked a certain way. ie less black people.

It happens with wealthy black folks too.

Some people, like myself, are for reparations but know, pragmatically, that the most underrepresented population can't just demand a check and actually get it.

We're better off with policies that disproportionately target our people; solidify our economic and political power over time; then we can start making decisions from a position of power.

Instead people just demand on the Internet; pat themselves on the back; then switch tabs to IG.

nikkas taking pride in a rich white clown taking their neighborhood and moving them out, fixing it up, raising the property value up, and moving their fellow cacs in.

Dumb mothafukkas don’t know what gentrification means

You both completely missed the point.

And fukk no to that bullshyt "policies that disproportionately target our people". Slavery/Jim Crow targeted us DIRECTLY, so the remedy should as well.

I think the point is we could do this ourselves collectively.
