Atlanta is known for being a hub of some of the most successful black people in America. It’s chock full of some of the best HBCU’s; plus Emory, the CDC, CNN, and Coke make it a prime area to thrive–if not romantically (I’ve heard the horror stories)–intellectually and financially. But there’s an underbelly of Atlanta infected by some of the most beastly hood rats you could ever see. Some of the poorer black neighborhoods in Atlanta have a 90-100% out-of-wedlock rate, and children are the feral offspring of teenagers. So when you look at this video, keep in mind that this particular neighborhood is a wart on that underbelly. This is a recording of a security guard trying to keep the peace when two alley-cat mothers and their doomed children verbally assault the guard.
Did you hear the children scream, “THAT’S WHY YOU’RE GAY!”? OMG, is this America or some third world ghetto? Nope. I checked. It’s Atlanta.
A friend of mine who brought this video to my attention said that she spend her internship not far from this neighborhood, and she reports that it’s horrific. “I left with the quickness. The people that you see in that video, are the people who are common in the area. The women have no fear, and they will fight a dude in a minute (and yes, most of the men will fight back). I had to do student teaching in an area close to it, and I hated it. I parked my car within a view of a window so that I would make sure I could see if a student broke in. As a matter of fact, on my first day at that school, I walked in on a gang fight. Talk about being happy when my student teaching assignment was up!!” she told me.
She also said something that was quite poignant. “The sad thing is that the children have zero guidance. While doing my student teaching, I was asked to teach the girls how to care for their personal hygiene. I didn’t want to do it at first, but then I realized these girls are so lost they don’t have someone to take the time to teach them how to care for their bodies. Most of the children in that area are being raised by teenage mothers and/or grandmothers beacause the parents are in jail. Fathers are not present, and most of their food comes from school lunch. Additionally, I did an assignment with the students in which I asked them what did they want to be when they got older. About 80% of the children included, “I want to be white.”
Stop there. These kids, being raised with no guidance and in utter chaos wish they were white. I thought about that for a second. I don’t think the kids wished they were white because they thought whites were inherently better, but because when they see white people outside of their neighborhoods and on the television, those parents and children are not burdened by the disease festering in the black community. Children crave structure, both parents responsible and involved, a reliable food source, and mothers and fathers who don’t behave like creatures. It’s not the color they crave, it’s the lifestyle. Who could blame them?
Some of you might balk at my language, but if it walks like a beast and talks like a beast, it’s a beast. God help the kids who have to live in this Hell. Like Khadija once wrote, the peace walls are coming, especially if the black, underclass, out-of-wedlock rate continues unfettered.

This is EXACTLY why I moved my kids out of the hood. We just didn't belong there. The living conditions are horrible. How could you ever be comfortable breathing in urine every morning on the way to school and work?? Its crazy how all you have to do is walk about 5 blocks outside the hood and its like ur in a different country smh.
Growing up where i did all anyone knew how to do well was fight, gang bang, and make babies. There were TONS of programs that came to our area to give us a different perspective on life and about a hand full of us who grew up together actually aspired to leave and did. The problem is the culture. The attributes in a person that they deem admirable are appalling.
1.Going to school every day.
2.Getting good grades.
3.Not selling drugs.
4.Not going to prison.
5. Being respectful.
6.Not being promiscuous.
7.Not fighting.
8.Not joining a gang.
These are all things you could be teased, bullied or beat up for, and these are just a few. Also these are things i experienced in Elementary and Junior High School.
The first year i moved out of there was the best year of my life. My daughter was 9 and my son was 1. I have never felt as safe as i do here. I hate how when people leave the hood and never come back are called sellouts smh. I visit my friends but i will NEEEVER EEEEEEEEVER (Jericho vc) move back there again. Once your around better people you REALLY see what's wrong there smh. I had never felt comfortable with my daughter going to the store by herself till i moved. I'm never on edge like i always was there . Watching everything like a hawk soo if anything pops off i can grab my kids and go home smh.
Its sad but whether we want to admit it or not the hood is a terrible place and its better to move if you have the resources to do so. I feel sorry for the people who live there but most of them don't want help and like where they live and cause the terrible unsanitary conditions. Just thinking of all the fights ive had makes me cringe smh. I am so happy to say my daughter is now 15 and has NEVER been in a fight, loves school (particularly computer science), and is helpful and respectful. This can be attributed to our parenting and the healthy environment we put her in.
I feel so sorry for those children. They are so young and already being corrupted by their environment. and their ratchett ass mothers. smh
