Search Results: in my neighborhood

Be honest here, I won't be offended and others try not to be offended it's a good time to connect with others.

My experience with racism will shock the hell out of you. As you may know im black although I do have roots from other races which you can tell by my parents and grandparents. However, I've experience the most racism from my own race! Yes other blacks. It was such a bad experience. I was teased because I didn't speak, dress, act nor listen to black music. I didn't use slang, I dressed like a skater/surfer/punk and my taste in music was very much pop- metal. My friends were those of different races than my own. I grew up in a neighborhood with primarily white, Asian, indians, and small group of latinos a. I just never actually fit in with my own race.

So I'm currently in the city. The city is great in terms of being close to major high ways and my job but the city also also has its cons. More people = more crime which is what I've noticed in my area. You can't escape all crimes but you can move to an area where it's minimal. I did some apartment hunting in more affluent areas. But the drive will be different to and from work possibly 30-45min. How far would you drive?
