Internet and real life is not the same.... just go out and catch a vibe and talk about it later

Thank you for being proactive in your search! I’m sorry it’s been a little rough for you to get acclimated, but I PROMISE YOU, you’ll find your people. The Taste of Soul is October 17th on Crenshaw Blvd in L.A. - Black essence PERSONIFIED ‼️I advise parking at the Metro Station on La Cienega/Jefferson Blvd & taking the train to Exposition, it drops you right on Crenshaw. Get there early & wear some walking shoes. You will NOT be disappointed 😘

Transplant here! No I get what you’re saying completely…Blk pple see Compton as hood and ghetto for other blk pple AND it’s not as blk as it used to be. They find the other places like Leimert as a lil upper class. it’s the classism you’re missing babe.

i haven’t been having a good experience having moved here from chicago for grad school solely because i don’t know how to drive (fear of the road). i genuinely feel so sad here but sigh i know it’s my fault because i don’t want to drive, but i crave community but i don’t know how

A lot of those people only talk like that on the internet and it's so lame. Go wherever you want friend! I live in Inglewood and we're being gentrified so bad by people who don't look like us and are actively taking our homes. I would love for more black people to visit Inglewood because in a time like this, we NEED to build community and learn from each other!!!! What you're doing is beautiful PERIOD!

Don’t listen to them!! The internet is full of miserable people. There is a history of transplants driving up the pricing and that causing gentrification but don’t take that on. Come to the community babe. There are plenty of us that will embrace u with open arms

Maybe cause you’re going out your way to socialize versus finding black folks where you alr live and mingle amongst them. Nothing wrong with your intentions however. As a Cpt-LA native we ain’t going wayyyyy to MoVal to hang out with other black folks (unless our fam type ish) but I think if you found black folks where you are. And make that a vibe then yeaaaa that’s cool. But to drive wayyyyy to cpt to just hang is not native behavior 💯😁 js

LA is also racist. It’s just too expensive here to be level 10 racist 😂 so it’s like level 1 or 2. People don’t like when you’re pro black. Even some of the black ones are anti-black so be careful. But when you find your tribe, you’ll be fine.
