The neighborhood in the very first part of this video is where I grew up. It’s called Baptist Town. It’s also where Morgan Freemon once stayed when he was going to and graduated high school in Greenwood, Mississippi. The city is a shell of its former self. It was a vibrant town until all of the manufacturing jobs that were there went to Mexico and China in the early to mid 90s.

[@don-ox3jx]

The loss of manufacturing destroyed many black middle class communities.. happened to a similar city where I grew up

[@MrCguy24]

Are these types of towns dangerous?

[@ibelievetruth282]

[@samuelwilliams8900]

I was born in Greenwood, Mississippi and drifted between Greenwood and Chicago most of my life. Greenwood is what it is, just as Chicago is what it is now. We make our environments by what we allow and accept. We as a people all can do better.

[@Myfriendwaits]

Let's not forget this is where all modern Music comes from: gospel, rock, blues, jazz, country... you name it. Worldwide. All from this basic area. We should all give Mississippians thanks for this.

[@seymorgorde]

But the artists have to leave Mississippi to become successful. Even Mississippians will tell you that smart people will leave the state to be successful. No. No thanks to Mississippi, deep red state that thrive on handout from the federal government, then they embezzle the money instead of helping the poor and the impoverished. Please, do not give them credit for the work of art by black people who had to escape the state. Mississippi could do more to uplift the talent of black people in the state.

[@fabfab5450]

What is swept under the rug is the fact that it's also a place where there were many lynchings, cross burnings, killings, and a good ole boy system. Education funding is very poor and opportunity is severely limited. Many of these people are stuck.

[@Myfriendwaits]

I am originally from that same basic area. We got out. I got out..

And these hateful evil spirit aZz people right here and refusing to get a job or education and better themselves and their lives! Stop making excuses and blaming the white people it's us!!!!!

[@bchooper5603]

@@fabfab5450 Progdems swept that all under the rug. Southern Democrats hated Conservative Christians, white or black, all the same. Conservative Christians were the ones fighting for the abolition of slavery. Meanwhile, progressives were the ones getting rich off of slavery. The idea of 'white trash' came from the progressives of that era, denoting white conservatives who refused to be involved with slavery and refused doing business with slave-owning plantations.

[@ibelievetruth282]

[@willie417]

@@theartistcherrypi6454 now think about that, "made it out" people shouldn't have to make it out, sound like they lived in a disaster zone here in the good old USA, like a lot of small cities and towns across the U.S. they usually have one to three large employers in/near them with support business around and those areas do fine, then things start getting shut down, some people relocate and others believe the rumors of some other company coming it to reopen that business that close that will breath life back into that area, which never happens, which leaves a older population retirees and some hopeful and hopeless young people, and AI is right around the corner about to flip everything on it's head. (and let not forget about the drug waves that hit the country with devastation about every 10 years) So get out and go where? because what a nice area today, could become something different five years from now or what look like an so-called disaster zone today, can/will become the hottest place to live (Gentrification) when you see a Starbucks or a few cafes open up there's a change coming, you might see an art galleries or brewery pop up too, in a warehouse that been empty for years, but don't worry about the neighborhood changing, because you won't be able to afford the high rent and will have to move. What's funny in the city where I live, in the so-called hood (Black areas) the rent is usually lower than other areas, but now with the rent on the rise in those others area, white people are now moving into the so called hood, but here's the problem with that, they're causing the rent in the so called hood, that they complained about for years to go up fast, displacing the people that live there for years, and I heard that it's happening in a few areas on the east coast

My grandmother was from Itta Bena, aka "home in the woods" 😂 it was a rite of passage for us as kids to spend the summer down there at least once. I had some of the coolest adventures there coming up. RIP Mrs. Minnie Harris

My hometown. Born and raised. Left years ago and never went back.
