FBA Chicagoans calling out Mayor Lightfoot for dropping off migrants in their neighborhood and get backlash

[Braman]

Yea, sorry, nggas can’t say shyt in Chicago. Whatever they been doin it ain’t working.

Seen it in dc firsthand. Places that were crack dens and murder pits get gentrified and folk cry foul. Take care of your fukking city before them people ‘greenlight’ your area.

Keeping it 100, it's over as a collective. It's 2023. Brehs keep pushing the timeline further and further into the future like other races are stagnant waiting for us to catch up. They are making progress today, they not talking about what they need to do tomorrow, they are doing it. They bussing in new Hispanics while stopping Black immigrants at the border. You can't catch up if you are 50-100 years behind everybody else. Plus we outnumbered and outgunned. It's gonna get spooky this decade.

But I'm sure Black people especially Black women will continue to vote Democrat. When your vote is balanced and the parties can't predict who you will vote for each election, they fight for it and actually do things that benefit your race. Nobody wondering which party Black people will vote for and here we are.

ESPECIALLY the black women here. Some of these women really believe its up to the education system to teach their kids how to read.. So now the politicians run their platform on bettering the education system, knowing that if you don't have parent participation, you'll have bad schools no matter how much resources you dump into it. You'll just have beautiful schools with stupid kids in them. So to your point, yes, it is OVER. When the children aren't even being protected, but being used as political pawns, its a done deal.

They are bringing in these migrants to displace and replace the black people there.

migrants or not, that area is going to be gentrified regardless. it has too close of a proximity to the university of chicago campus. and U of C has been buying up crazy land in the area for years.

I think part of it is when constantly portray ourselves as victims, we have to make room for other ppl and let them trample on us

We were victims, and deserve reparations

But shyt like "colonizer" as an insult, and the shyt these journalists and media be pedaling to make white ppl feel bad and give them a job shoots us in the foot

I feel like this is just another manifestation of black folks wanting to imitate wealthy, privileged liberal white folks. Many in our community have started to adopt their mindset. They can advocate for illegal immigrants all they want to because they are never going to be in their neighborhoods unless somebody's grass is getting cut or some landscaping is being done. They can push for gay rights, minority rights and all kinds of shyt that's irrelevant to them because they won't be harmed by it in any significant measure.

Black folks don't realize that we aren't in the same position. We GOTTA advocate for ourselves and realize that these other groups are competition and see us the same way.

Your article about the NC voter fraud was about a National Election...that's where I got confused.

Immigrants don't necessarily like each other and don't typically vote in large numbers.

I don't see the problem with the shelter at the former school. The residents seem to be full of shyt

1.I was showing somebody else it happened. It doesn't matter if ONE person did it. Facts are facts.
2.The "Hispanic/Asian" superaggregates were formed by multiple ethnic groups at the behest of Mexicans, Chinese, and Japanese. I don't hear any of the smaller groups fighting for disaggregation. These superaggregates were formed to counter black people and acquire civil rights resources.
3.Where are your people from?

Excuse me? Illinois never belonged to Spain.

Their cheap labor is being threatened. All that wall shyt was cap. They know they have to pay us (unless we're in prison), and a brehito-migo will undercut out of spite.

Ain’t there an Asian/Latino neighborhood in Chicago that redlines? Don’t they take the for sale signs down when Black peoples wanna move in?

 

[Satsui no Hadou]

What exactly is the problem with them being in a shelter in this neighborhood?

They can’t answer that. You’re asking them to actually consider their positions beyond some knee jerk Pavlovian reaction

Funny how this comment was completely ignored though.

Gentrification. A lot of things are happening in that area and Lightfoot ready to get FBA out. Woodlawn is an up and coming neighborhood but still not attractive to most White people yet like southside neighborhoods closer to downtown. But once they get enough Hispanics to move in and make it feel more comfortable for them, they will be coming.
