'Heres the thing: I grew up here in Fort Greene. I grew up here in New York. Its changed. And why does it take an influx of white New Yorkers in the south Bronx, in Harlem, in Bed Stuy, in Crown Heights for the facilities to get better?' he said. Maybe because white culture isn't about destroying and taking, but about building and improving?
Nah, that can't be it. It must be that governments only give money and benefits to white people and white areas. We talk about that all the time in our top-secret all-the-white-folks-only meetings. No money ever gets assigned to improving black areas. Ahem.
