Dallas' not so secret racist history

[3rdWorld]

Yet the coli swears Dallas and Houston are Black mecca's..

More on the topic. Houston does have it's fair share of deep racial scars.

Many of you already know about the Camp logan riots.
Houston riot of 1917 - Wikipedia

We may have had the worst HBCU riot in US history.

Then there's the police stand off and execution of People's Party leader Carl Hamilton in 3rd ward.

and them mfs are crybabies to the fullest
cac : "hey bill, did you hear they are calling Trump "your president " now ? "
cac : "black players only playing for hbcu's is racist"
cac : "beard lives matter"
cac : insert any insult about California

these cacs hate Cali cuz cacs will get smashed on by minorities if they stepped out of line . Thats where all this "liberal" hatred for Cali come from

Cali is beautiful. I have friends from there that moved to Texas simply because it's cheaper. I wanna get my financial weight up then move there.

Man Dallas do have some racist cacs but let's not act like they didn't frame 5 black men in NYC for rape, or Rodney King didn't get his ass beat by laws on TV in LA bruh. You black bruh, you can encounter that shyt anywhere. Boston is the most place I have ever been in my life. Honestly as black as Chicago is I was shocked how segregated and divided racially it is. North and Southside of Chicago was like night and day to me.

 

[TELL ME YA CHEESIN FAM?]

I do go outside, I'm actually currently back in school at UHD.

Ironically, all Texans reiterate this same statement in the same sense as an African American explaining all the racism in America to a white person and their comeback being - "Why don't you go back to Africa" "If you don't like it, leave"...

Like I said, I've traveled and seen it all. Texas is a different planet, go embrace a redneck, country music, cac culture and be proud brother, I'll leave it at that.

nikka I'm talking about the State u came from
Texas been full
Tired of u nikkas moving here and talking down
U can always move back,cant u?

 

[Peter Popoff]

Only place in texas I'll ever consider living is Houston

If you do, stay in the Westheimer, Midtown, Heights area. The north is wack and when you enter Conroe, Woodlands, Trinity, it's definitely . Southeast is full of Mexicans that like to pretend to be black.

Even as far as infrastructure we are more modern. Houston always feels like the biggest country town ever to me. Kinda reminds me of Ft. Worth just with way more to do and like 3 or 4 times as big.

Depends of what side of the town you're on, because much of houston within the loop outside the wards(and even 5th ward to some extend) was originally planned out with a rurban(rural living in an urban city) infrastructure in mind, especially in the black neighborhoods like Trinity & Kashmere Gardens, Acres Homes, Settegast and Sunnyside.

There's a reason why you really only see shyt like this in H-tyne(ignore the title lol).

We hold these neighborhoods with a lot of affinity, as they represent heritage, culture, and history for us. Shoehorning mass "progressive" urban infrastructural changes would not only wipe out all of that, but lead to rapid gentrification(which still does happen to some extend). People here are doing quite the opposite, and fighting to preserve the legacy of these neighborhoods. And that's one of the things makes Houston's AA community stronger than Dallas's IMO. We take our history and culture seriously here.

Any infrastructural changes that happen must be done with preserving the existing community and heritage in mind. It's a delicate process. Developers can't just come bulldozing everything down.

Yeah, but there's obvious differences. So youd rather live down south than the East or West coast

Dallas has no dominant culture, that's why people think Dallas has no black culture. It has plenty of black culture, but nobodies culture is strong enough to dominate here. Politically Blacks have gained a lot of power here, just not economically... Yet it's coming though. Dallas aint as white as you would think it is. You can't go anywhere here without seeing a bunch of minorities here even the suburbs, of all kinds.

People in Houston all come off the same to me. Mexicans wanna be black, even the white boys come off like off brand hood nikkas, at least all the ones I've met that moved up here. I have yet to meet a typical cac from Houston, they all come off like Paul Wall to me.

Honestly I would yes. I hate the masked condescension in the way of being 'liberal and progressive' way that cacs treat themselves with out there. I feel like it's an insult to my intelligence, you doing this to make you feel good, not because you actually give a fukk about the struggle. It's just something to brag about to them and I'll be damned if I let someone insult my intelligence by playing me like a fiddle for the sake of they 'feelings'.

nikka, I'm from NY. I'm in school and working here temporarily. Why would I just drop out because of these weak ass cacs?

Think about it from a logical standpoint. I'm just pointing out shyt that I'm seeing. This place is wack af. I gotta ignore these cacs at work that speak in code, keep convo succinct, smile and do my hustle and keep it moving.

If you've lived in NY, you can speak on it, I wouldn't give af I laugh at NY jokes all the time. Our teams suck besides the yankees.

lol Dude, even the whites who don't act like Paul Wall are influenced by black culture every time the local news or radio station uses the word "H town". Even the pop(white) radio station 104.1 has a daily news segment called "around h town".

So, yeah Houston's dominant culture is definitely African-American despite AAs only being about %23 of the population. H-town Mexicans are probably some of the most black influenced Mexicans in the country right up there with Chi & Bay area Mexicans.

Not only that, but it's seems like Houston AAs seem to be much more in tune with their hertiage and culture(juneteeth, trailriding associations, black heritage rodeos, creole heritage fest etc etc) than Dallas AAs. Which is funny because Dallas has old black communities and freedmens towns just like Houston.

Dallas don't have creoles like that and it really was never as country here to us like that. Dallas is southern, but it isn't THAT southern bro. It kinda has a midwest vibe to it as well as a southern one, along with a little Cali as well in recent years. Houston is true blue southern bruh, I'll give it that it is a true southern city. Dallas is not, it's a melting pot.
