Some big cites are working to make things better in their "inner city" area.
Good to hear but unfortunately here in Buffalo, there’s rough neighborhoods all over the place filled with people loitering all over the streets, garbage all over the place, pot holes in the roads deserted homes, homes that are dilapidated. And this is Felt in other major cities in Chicago in Philadelphia and part of Las Vegas.
My brother-in-law, who is black, feels unsafe to go out to the inner cities even though he is 250 pounds, ripped and filled with muscle. It was sad to hear him Tell me to be careful to walk around the east side of Buffalo or even just not walk in the area at all. ….but you know what I’m gonna continue to go down to that area just not at night time yet maybe. I used to work there for two years. I know people there and I’m about being positive.
Come on down to the east side of Buffalo take a look at the corner stores where there’s 10 or 15 people loitering outside the shop literally doing nothing just sitting there smoking weed drinking, making people feel uncomfortable …it’s Miles of roads filled with corner stores, liquor stores, fast food places, the types of stores that upcharge their customers on basic items.. because they know that there’s not healthy restaurants in the area there’s not healthy supermarkets in the area.
These types of sites like for example, seeing a crack user seeing a crack dealer, seeing these ugly streets today….well this did not exist in the 1950s in America. The homes were much more beautiful and again This is a credit to our black and white ancestors who built something so beautiful in the American past. This is called paying respect to those of the past, and we need to learn from them I say.
