It's not like there was no alarm sounding! The reality is" once there was no room for improvement or upkeep or economic advancememt ,crime,violence,and hate are evitable!

The Sleeping giant is waking! The question is ...what will happen?

[blackatl1]

Hmm, is that "Pants on the Ground" guy at 18:56? Same name.

We are slowly moving to the model of the Third World where the poor live in shanty towns out in the suburbs and the rich live in high rises. That is exactly what's happening here. SMH,

[BabyGirlGoddess]

Most of the people who used to live in these homes are moving to other cities. A lot of cities/towns that are outside the perimeter are becoming minority-majority city. Douglasville, for example. A lot of blacks and hispanic people have move over there. It's only 33% white( 55% black) now if my memory is correct.

[BabyGirlGoddess]

that 13:00 right there.

building all of these houses/condos and no one is living in there.

[TopSchoolAtlanta]

You need some white folks telling this story too.

whats the name of the song playing????

[PsyentificFilmsInc]

@MontCLE , its a reference track & won't be in the final film. But its an orchestral version of My Chemical Romance's song "The Jetset Life Is Gonna Kill You!"

[MontCLE]

@MontCLE Im talking about the one that starts at 2:10

[PsyentificFilmsInc]

@MontCLE , Anthony David, Red Clay Chronicles!

[etime89]

You guys should expand more on the history that was presented at the beginning of the documentary

[PsyentificFilmsInc]

@etime89, we definitely will be addressing the history @ the beginning & also thanks for mentioning the nature of 'disappearing' poverty.

[etime89]

@PsyentificFilmsInc cool. This video brought me to tears. Nice job so far. Shout out to the Georgia State grads/students in your crew. I'm a GSU student myself

[etime89]

The displaced are moving to the suburbs...poverty doesn't "disappear" when prosperity appears.

[shinheyu]

great work so far; definitely forces the masses to really look into what atl is doing with its housing.

[PsyentificFilmsInc]

@shinheyu, thanks!

[PsyentificFilmsInc]

@shinheyu, thanks! We're still trying to expand our reach w/this film

[TheMediaAnarchist]

Absolutely riveting! Are you guys looking for collaborations? If so I'm your man!

I would like this group to also do a story on neighborhoods that have high percentages of immigrants and see what their mindset is about building a life in America (i.e. - Buford Highway area) and contrast it with some of the points of view in this video.

[PsyentificFilmsInc]

@ladyadrienne, immigration is def a topic we've thought about, right now, we're not sure if we have the right approach for that topic

[williep0327]

Thanks for exposing this. This so sad and inhumane. God is not please with this!

[aquarimind]

[PsyentificFilmsInc]

@aquarimind, thanks we def appreciate all the support we can get!

[aquarimind]

Ey yo.. i'm loving this documentary.. excellent work.. do more i'll def support.. 

[britt0776]

I appreciate the Cousins family helping out with the East Lake neighborhood...but why do we have to wait for an old white couple to help us? Why can't we help EACH OTHER? It's just perpetuating the cycle of us relying on others to help us out instead of us helping ourselves..

[mech887]

Stupid hypocrites. This movie summed up in the first few minutes. "GIVE US" something and we'll act better. How about you start cleaning up your own community without asking for the hand outs.
