My time in ATL felt like a city of black excellence. All the nicest cars, you look inside and its a black person driving it.
Nicest houses you drive by and its black people living there.
Thats probably what they see and felt some way about. A metropolis with a bunch of black folks doing fine.
They used to black people being regulated to parts of town they don't go to

ATL, but rasied in DMV
Although DC ain't quite Chocolate City anymore, the racism ain't nowhere near what it is in the South, including Atlanta. In the DMV, you can be the only Black person, and nobody bothers you. Btw, I'm not talking about on the job in the DMV. I'm taking about when you're out and about.

Lol at y'all not understanding why white people think it's funny. How do y'all safely live in America without understanding the Beast? Really?

One of my friends from college moved to DC.

"Archie, there are a lot of Black people here." He promptly moved to Del Ray.:mjpls:

I almost laughed too, because white people/non black people, are just not cognizant of how Black DC is. Black cops, Black Judges, Black engineers, Black coworkers, Black superiors, Black construction workers, store owners, Ethiopians, School kids in uniforms, some with lacrosse sticks not just football pads.

Blackness is so normal here, at every level, and it's not sectioned off to spots they don't go to.

Their only conception of Blackness is the handful of Black folks in college and a few at the job in previous cities, and the criminals on local TV, bums on campus, and celebrities.

So to see some Black folks cutting up at Le Diplomate over some escargot...

And at the professional level, there's a lot of resentment/animus.

DC City government, like all city (state and Fed) governments, is incompetent. But the vitriol they have for whoever is in office always has that tinge to it.

They are genuinely surprised, all these Obama voters, and the closet Romney voters.

+Rep for the bolded. The food there is :ohlawd:

This is why I could never see myself living anywhere but the south long term. If you not moving amongst your people on a weekly basis, then you're certified c00n status by default.
