When America experienced lower poverty rates than any other advanced democracy, local governments designated specific areas known as "Settlers' Landings." These areas were intended for people across the country who intentionally left their previous homes behind in search of improved living standards. They allowed them to exchange ideas and share their creativity to progress in resettling. This initiative aimed to facilitate the exchange of ideas and promote creativity to advance society. In contrast, a sign of the times is that civic authorities now employ "Social Identity Deconstruction," which many people perceive as a form of isolation and humiliation. The California author Jack London captured the stark contrast between the "Homeless" and the American Settler tactic in his observation: "Class supremacy can rest only on class degradation," as expressed in his work, "The People of the Abyss."
The issue is slowly but surely areas once populated by poor and working class people will be gentrified. Thus , rents will escalate and the working class will be displaced. Rents will no longer be affordable
There is NO amount of money that could "fix" these kind of people's problems. The way they live, the destruction they cause, the attitudes they have--- is UNFIXABLE!!!
These politicians from the federal down through every branch of this country has been stealing money for years . But there are Powers Greater than all of ours spiritual been working
The children luv it !! Their parents,,well parent created it,,they destroy everything/everywhere they live,,no need to feel sorry or get mad facts are the facts
Be grateful?! What's that supposed to mean, it's patronising and rude. I'd like to see you living in Baltimore! Most Brazilians I've met are arrogant with a sense of entitlement. Particularly, the Brazilians here in the UK, they just come here to get free healthcare and abuse the NHS.🤬
This situation could be solved by giving local residents ownership and training to fix those abandoned-looking properties up. But that unity, desire for education, focus, conflict resolution and problem-solving is usually lacking in places like this in the world so you have to minimize that, too, or the local residents will continue to throw trash, tag up walls, break windows, and break into properties, etc.
I live in the Ashburton neighborhood in West Baltimore by the reservoir. I grew up in Philly by Chew and Washington LN Baltimore and Philadelphia are the SAME city. Unfortunate Baltimore has more urban blight areas with the bandos. Politics for 50 plus yrs allows this to happen. Maybe people should try a different version of it at this point?
I’ve been to Philly many a times and I’m from Baltimore. They are identical. Philly is our cousin to the North. Poor niggas, poor leadership, lack of education and thinking crime will get u out the hood is the recipe for this bullshit
It's so sad Baltimore was a beautiful city. I've seen photos and videos of how it was in the 1960s. Those houses must have been lovely to live in, in their time, they remind me of the terraced style houses and the corner shops here in England. No offence but in colonial America times it was one of the finest cities in the States.😢
Nobody went in there and made that mess. All the garbage, graffiti and destruction was made by those people. You people are right nobody should live like this. But, obviously they want to. Because the destruction and danger continues. Normal people do not live like this. They take pride in what little they have. I have no pity on them. It’s called going to school and getting a job. And not blaming society for your choices.
Nobody asked you, Karen. Maybe instead of judging people in an area which you know knowing about, educate yourself. You clearly are super prilvedged. You can't even grasp the idea of people being in a situation that they can't leave. Try to count your blessings. Or you know, keep living up to the name...
6:27 - next to that red garage with the white door is the house we used to live at on Frederick Avenue (the backyard is on Lombard) back in the early 70s and prior 6:19 - my great uncle ran that liquor store on the corner of Lombard and Monroe, and he got shot in there during a robbery.
I have a question for you. Do they separate people by ethnicity in the United States? Are there neighborhoods for blacks, whites, Asians and Latinos? I'm Brazilian, and we find this bizarre!
There is no law stating that today but it's now by choice... However, 60 years ago in Baltimore, there was such laws... When they got rid of the laws, scum "blockbusters" would come into a white neighborhood, buy up one house and place a black family there, then all the whites would sell their houses for pennies on the dollar due to fear and the blockbusters made huge profits. Then the blockbusters would either resell the houses to blacks at inflated interest rates or just turn to slumlords renting into the houses fell apart.
Damn scary video tour of the Baltimore back street slums, ghetto, hood ! Shady characters in the back streets, gangs and drug deals on every corner. No-go for tourists !
I used to live in Anne Arundel County, outside of Charm City. I used to spend a lot of time in Baltimore with friends, guys I dated, places to eat, concerts, dancing, museums. It used to be a lot of fun. Too much crime , too many empty souls, places that are abandoned, no respect.
At the end of the day it is about lack of leadership. I am not saying I am there, but at I am there enough to understand that is what the problem is. Leadership is a rare skill that precious few have in this country.
It's funny, because 1 week ago I finished watching The Wire for the first time in my life, this is a terrible, incredible dejavu that the streets look the same as when the series ended 16 years ago.
Things will get better for Baltimore. Our Governor has started a program for kids getting out of high school called the service year. They can learn a trade, volunteer, do apprenticeships, work with career coaches and upon completion earn money forward college. It’s great for kids who may not have plans, even know what they want to do or can’t afford college. They will earn $15 an hour for full time work during the service year. They are also extending the light rail which will be great for the city.
It's really scary and haunted looking around the back western edge of Baltimore. Where the Amtrack train runs by. There's so many boarded up and deserted row houses. Walking 🚶♂️ around there at night, I bet, is terrifying. You don't know if you're find a dead body or large Rats all over the place.
These type of city design, row houses and commercial buildings together are exactly what young professionals want. Obviously not in this condition though.
It's just amazing how old is beautiful one time cities are turning into a garbage dump what's going to happen in another 5 years from now never thought this would happen in America 🇺🇸🤔
This area (west baltimore) will never be gentrified. There is nothing, absolutely nothing there.... Hampden, Fells Point, SOuth Baltimore, and areas up by Johns Hopkins hospital are being heavily gentrified right now.
It doesn’t happen overnight. Many sections of New York City have slowly gentrified. Areas that were once predominantly African American are now a diverse mixed income population
So much wrong with this country yet people seem to put so much faith in these politicians loving our neighbors as our selves and putting greed aside would fix most of our problems
Must be zero community spirit. The litter and rubbish here and to be fair in most of Charlie's videos is just depressing! Where i live of course morons still throw litter but there is community spirit and we do our best to keep our surroundings tidy . As for the buildings it looks like a war has just finished. It's amazing this is USA and yet its a depressing state
The number of red-tagged buildings is incredible. Not a fit place for human beings to live. And we thought Baltimore was horrible when we lived in the area three decades ago...
Baltimore and Philly look almost the same 🤦🏽♀️it’s a DAM SHAME‼️‼️‼️the mayor and governor could care less about tearing all this down and rebuilding Someone needs to start getting they shit together🙄🙄😳🤬🤬🤬I feel safer in Bronx NY, at 3 Am than I would here🙄🙄
Despite the houses being in poor condition, the infrastructure of the neighborhood is excellent, much better than any middle-class neighborhood in Latin America or Africa. It is the politicians' laziness that does not improve people's living conditions; it is easy to do that there. There is money.
