a few posts ago , i read that brentwood is pretty nice and so is greenbelt. a little over a month ago, i drove down around bowie for a few hours and made some videos for youtube ( u can find them by goin to youtube and typing in 'explores bowie'). i also drove around oxon hill, forest heights and the top part of fort washington about 2- 3 weeks ago. i'm looking to buy a 3 - 4 bedroom single family house.

your friend,

adio
I don't get it. These are suburban townhouses you can find in any town USA... Is it just so special because black people are living in them?

yes, do u know why?? when certain types of media and especially rap promotes and glorifies living hood life, constantly sending overt messages that 'this is the fire you're gon walk through to make it. i got ice, cars, cribs and fame and b-t-c-es and x dollars so i made it but i'm still hood!!! hood for eva!!' ppl listen to it and see it and think hood life = sky is the limit. so when i read about wealthy african americans living in nice, majority black neighborhoods who mow the lawn, keep the sidewalks and streets clean on their own and don't stand on the corners and walk up and down the street everyday/all day......... that means something to me.

there are way more poor black neighborhoods and/or cities where it appears that black ppl choose to stay being an underclass than there are black neighborhoods/cities where blacks completely choose to bust through barriers of racism, whether real or just perceived, and obstacles of self-hatered and intra-racial oppression to climb high heights of social, economic, political and educational acheivement. so yes dan, it is special to me.

but i didn't come here to justify myself regarding elite black neighborhoods. i don't want this to be a racial thread that gets shut down/closed either. i just want some more answers to my questions............
