Thanks for this episode

I grew up in Englewood in the ’90s. My mother Sherry Hunt was tragically murdered by one of the offenders who was later released due to the torture scandal. That same individual also took the life of her friend, Lovey.

I appreciate the discussion on white flight, but it’s equally important to acknowledge Black professional flight—I understand the reason behind both. The crack era is nearly behind us, and meth hasn’t gained the same foothold in urban Black communities. As the children of the crack epidemic, we’ve seen the devastating effects of drug abuse, which is why hard drugs aren’t as prevalent today. I do want to point out the generation under us never seen how bad things were.

Now, I live in West Pullman, where I’m investing in some of the most affordable real estate you’ll find in any major U.S. city. These neighborhoods are not as dense due to abandoned homes and vacant lots. Many of the homes are zombie homes which were foreclosed on during the housing crisis, financial institutions avoided title change leaving properties in limbo. 6 vacant lots on my block are owned by LLCs.

This was a fantastic podcast—my first time listening, and I really enjoyed it. Keep up the great work!
