The exact same thing happened here. The civil rights leaders around here say this is just one of the discriminatory hardships that Black people 'must' endure.
Then they go on to show (on TV) women with small children 'having to' ride the city busses to a White neighborhoods to get 'affordable' food.
It is the teenage sons of these same women who have run the businesses out of their neighborhoods with the robberies, stealing and random violence.
It's a joke.
Yep, the food’s “not affordable” because the cost of doing business in those neighborhoods is so high due to crime, vandalism, insurance, and security costs. Plus, if you’re riskinurass to run the store, it’s gotta be worth it.
On the other hand, these people don’t CHOOSE to eat healthy, but would rather eat “convenient”. That convenience also costs more.
TV dinners and pizza cost more than flour, rice, beans, and vegetables.
