No shit. This is supposed to be a video about Portland, not a video about her obsession with differences in skin color.

I love that yall always have an obsession with “blacks” doing or saying anything. This is why she made the video.

I’m aware 👍🏾

You would be surprised how black people who grew up here didn’t know any this. Be prepared and expect that a a very good amount (particular the men)of people in your community to not have solidarity with you because I’ve witness my Black friends laughing at Anti-black jokes, or randomly shitting on black women by other black women. I hope you are able built a network of a community. ❤❤

There's no more black neighborhoods everybody's on one side of the fence then the other people who live in Portland we're spread out once it's a lot of homelessness here on the streets are mayor Ted wheeler is mentally ill walking the streets attacking people and stuff is really not good place to come to

It's relative - if you're from LA, NYC, SF etc. it's cheaper for sure. If you're from smaller towns or low cost of living cities in the Midwest (for example), you're in for some sticker shock. Housing is the big one - low supply and pretty spendy to rent or buy.

I wouldn’t recommend moving here as Black person, it’s super segregated and the KKK operated here until the somewhere around the early 90s right by the one “black neighborhood.” The black population is like less than 5% and is the smallest minority group in Portland, which is continuing being pushed out. The white liberal people are the typical passive aggressively racial ignorant who tell you they voted for Obama twice unprompted (but then voted for Trump). The Black community she’s referring is mostly the typical Light skinned folks with a Black father and a White mother archetype that participate heavily in respectability politics. “Girrrrl, you in danger. The amount of Black folks that I personally was acquainted and classmates with who were ok white folks say the N word with an A was very uncomfortable. Oregon is essentially white utopia, it once the Whites only state, and you couldn’t own property as a black person until the mid-90’s.

As a former Beaverton resident. Previous Minneapolis local. Now oc. Once experiencing the West Coast. You'll never go back
