  • @TEVOSYAN "Africans belong in Africa"

    The whites who brought blacks to America 400+ years ago would disagree with your statement. Plus, for centuries, those whites made boatloads of money off of that free black labor.

    And that is what this story is about: making money by destroying the soul of black folks.

    If capitalism could reinstate slavery as an institution, it would do so. And, in effect, it has done so in some places already. Capitalism is about profit; people can get fucked.

  • fuck gentrification and fuck yuppies

    Are you a moron. Please re-examine my prior statement and evaluate my point for yourself.

  • @SaturnEternity then why move in there??

  • @tmprogram

    Yeah because the ghetto is such a nice place to live.

  • Yeah! What do expect these people have a consumer power of 1 trillion, but own nothing they can't even maintain their own communities. Maybe if you would stop buying wigs from Koreans you would have money to own those buildings in Harlem.

  • @AlizeCiz your point of calling me bitch ?@?!?!?!?!? wtf wrong with youre ghetto ass mouth. you acting ghetto right now

  • @jumpingonglass no i just said that im from wagner bitch, so i know not all people in section 8 are black. My point is i worked hard to get away from the kind of ppl i grew up with only for them to build section 8 right next to me. ppl who complain about gentrification should know it works both ways.

  • @AlizeCiz take so you think all people on sec 8 are black and they are rats........... you need help because you sick in the head

  • @jumpingonglass im not white, im actually hispanic & grew up in wagner projects, harlem, i moved to jersey to get away from the ghetto rats then they build section 8 housing in my new neighborhood? Fuck that.

  • @AlizeCiz just stop it you making me sick with your mouth and thoughts.......you make me want to snap the neck of a white person thinking like that

  • @AlizeCiz really they had black native indians in harlen first
