I love this scene. I used to always watch this movie. I was in 7th grade and lived on the Navajo Reservation in northeastern AZ, so it's obviously very different from Strike's projects-but still a slum with it's own problems-so I thought it was awesome how he sees that "No More Packing" sign-because that looks exactly like where I grew up, in the high desert.
But I know Spike Lee was just trying to show what it meant to Strike.
Still though-it linked the movie from Brooklyn to where I lived.
i love clockers, one of the most under-rated films of all time.
this scene for me shows how there is a better life outside the projects, it made me think alot about my own life - but i didn't live in the projects, i still realise the way society can mould you growing up, and only you can change your self.
That neighborhood where this was filmed looks suspiciously like Brownsville or Gowanus

So someone with troubles where I grew up could take the opposite train ride-get off the rez and go see NYC
