Not one person of color!!!
The transplants want to be able to frolic under the arch, they want what they always want shit that makes them comfortable they don’t care that it impedes your day to day living. They want bikes and roller skates and to walk back and forth from the park to the median. And once they get it they will never use it

I have to find time to see the rest of the content that specific person posts.
You can't be there all day edit all that footage and NOT notice you didn't speak to one person of color? And I mean not even someone who is mixed? Not even a fake tan? That feels deliberate. I'm not saying it is. Maybe WE messed and didn't show up. But this seems suspicious.
The DOT is making serious decisions about the infrastructure of the most populated borough most important landmarks with rents going as high as 3800 for a studio and no black people?
Trust me despite all efforts to the contrary? WE STILL THERE.
And a change to ANYTHING around the park has huge ramifications to the botanical garden, zoo, main branch of the library, bus routes, eastern parkway, Brooklyn museum and that is NOT everything.
I still need to hear more before I comment. It may be a good idea. Black people use that space on the regular having fairs, birthdays, cook outs, walks, picnics, parties, exercise, meditation etc.
We need the space and will use it if white folks don't f**k it up.
I would appreciate the space. I taught 4 generations of my family to ride bikes in there. Fed ducks, jogged, played soccer baseball lacrosse cricket frisbee kites water fights built snowmen sledding and tennis, rode horses. I did some things with some girls anyway I need to hear more.
I'm not automatically against change just cause these crackers suggest it but it does give me immediate pause.
