Growing up in Chicago,anyone would tell that Cabrini Green on the near north side didn’t compare to the Robert Taylor homes…Cabrini lost its luster by the time Candyman was filmed (Its known for the TV show Good Times and the movie Cooley High)…I was a newborn living in Robert Taylor 1972…Before you experience violence on the street you usually see and get at home(I had older brothers and cousins bullying me since I was a toddler)so fighting someone my age at school was easy …We didn’t stay there too much longer, we moved to another low income area…My mom,aunts and some of my neighbors, each had domestic issues regularly…1980 my mother boyfriend shot himself in the head in our living room…1981 her next ghetto boyfriend,handed my brothers and I his gun,and asked each of us to shoot him…And it wasn’t just the projects that were bad…If you grew up on the southside of Chicago in the 70 &80s ,traveling outside of your neighborhood,maybe shopping, and you encounter a group of boys,that outnumber your crew,they’re going to f*ck with you…

The outcome(s) of project housing was/is just as the "system" expected/predicted. This type of experiment was both successful and easily accomplished because the residents failed to acknowledge who their "enemies" were/are! Look up John B. Calhoun and the Behavioral Sink for further explanation.

[@daximusdecimusmeridius2201]

@@briangriffin8106the gov had a agenda

[@evelynwilson1566]

We had these in Scotland. They're called schemes over here. They were generally used to provide ' decent' housing for people who lived in slum areas. Many schemes were fine - they were well built, had a sense of community and had facilities or were close to town centres. The problem seems to have come with large developments built in the sixties and seventies. These houses were often badly built, were really new towns or villages but had very few facilities and people were moved from city centres to suburbs or smaller towns miles away. I wouldn't say our schemes are as violent as what you're describing here but there is a gang culture amongst teens in some of them, and lots of poverty, unemployment and addiction. I think in the sixties and seventies ( and to some extent the fifties)architects had grand ideas but never thought about the reality of how these buildings would age, how much it would cost to maintain them or what facilities people needed. So they started as great places to live but sadly declined quickly. Then problem tenants moved in and drugs got a hold.

[@crazychase98]

Lot of the projects go back to the black culture. A lot of these cultures came from the back woods and waters of the south. They all came north after the american Civil War. It's a long, interesting history. Basically, blacks in these areas kept the mind set of black hillbilly and came into inner citys. Leading to issues seen today

Very eye opening and informative video. Its interesting to see how urban renewal created more problems than it solved. Its been my assertion that the purpose of government housing was to provide affordable public housing. The goal was for the residents to save money while preparing for their future. When jobs were lost and crime increased, business and services left the area , urban blight was created. Prior to these projects being built , blacks owned their own homes , businesses , hospitals, etc. Our High-schools graduation rate was phenomenal . Not only were we receiving a quality education, but our schools were the social hub of our community. As as result we were told that our schools did not provide a quality education, so our High-schools were closed and the high school dropout rate is...but our incarceration rate is .

Affordable housing is a must. But there have to be some order and there has to be something to do. Not just building them and leave them. Its not like the crime in Chicago has vanished since the projects was tore down.

My respect and admiration goes out to everyone who had the displeasure and misfortune of growing up in any of these projects and anywhere in the so-called best country on Earth where you constantly feared for your safety and the safety of your loved ones. Through no fault of our own we were forced to grow up fast, poor, and hopeless a lot of the time. Makes me more sad than angry when I think of my peers who had even less than me and who watched as my mother slowly but surely got me TF up out of a bad situation in search of a better one (which she found and I will love and honor her forever because of what she did). They had literally no chance from the beginning and even still many of them didn’t turn to violence or even drugs…. They just got lost in the shuffle of society and now no one could give less of a shit about their situations. I do, and I try to help where I can, but I see what the system has done to folks who never wanted anything but a fair shot. Smh
