The city should have made this right many years ago. God bless those who are suffering.
When are our people gonna learn, the shadow rulers of this society don't Love them??
Facts I don't understand how they don't get it. Wtf it's higher ups shadow rulers are whatever u wan call them it is written
@@msolja facts. We must stop living fearful and assert our land rights. Their corporation is bankrupt.
People would be surprised on how many new subdivisions are built on top of what use to be landfills. Just look at Avondale. They build those landfills so high and literally wait 15 to 20 years for the trash to settle and build new subdivisions on top of them.
Exactly..you see they have PVC pipes acting as a chimney because of thr chemicals from trash..not to cause an explosion
Thank YOU I didn't know that
In Atlanta I grew up by the landfill off Moreland. You can still see the blue flames from I-285. There is an on going dispute about these same thing in the city of Atlanta . The soil has high levels of all type of chemicals in African American ,home owning , communities. Most residents are old. Hopefully they get justice.
Yes and it smells really bad.
Real estate developers are terrible.
Sounds like they need to be compensated by those large developers.
God bless all the residents of Gordon Plaza. Thank you to the News for reporting on this
They did the same thing In San Diego called a little Africa
What part of san diego?

I can't belive this is still going on!
I use to mess with a guy from press park back in 1998 I can remember this was a big thing back then
I hope they get justice
They closed all the jets in New Orleans and it’s making it bad because a lot of ppl can’t find nowhere to live so with the stress that’s going on that’s why it’s sooo much killing kids don’t have nothing like we used to have to keep us occupied for the weekends all kinds of community projects for the kids now it’s nothing. Everything is gone down in New Orleans and to look at it now I’m like I’m born and raised in New Orleans and it’s just totally different now
Big FACTS
Plz stop ppl aren’t supposed to live in projects
Everyone that was in charge should go to jail
That’s the draw back when it’s free or low income
The mayor definitely I think got paid money to let the project happen in my opinion sue his family cause people now still have health issues from his decision
That’s what I’m saying.
A lot of Houston neighborhoods were built on top of a landfill
Meanwhile, did they forget Thomy Lafon was built on top of a cemetery! First, second and third graders located skeleton bones under the breezeway. I was the last generation of the OLD Thomy Lafon. We were bused to James Weldon Johnson, in the early 80's. Not sure why Gayarre students were bussed there as well. It was a disaster! Multiple wards of students in one school.
Those developers are disgusting beings!😮
If people knew this was a land fill, it should have been investigated further.
A family just won millions in New Orleans her house was built on top of a graveyard and another lady had some other stuff under her house
😮
Jesus Christ how cruel!!!! 😢
Oh that's nothing I lived in a apartment complex that was built on top of a landfill and the new landfill was open and operating right nextdoor so I'm not surprised at all and yes they dumped everything there medical waist from the hospital and the corpses of the euthanized animals and when the wind shifted in the summer it was horrible 😳💯
30 years it’s absolutely absurd😡😡
What happened to the money from the Superfund decision? Seems like it could be used to help folks relocate.
Dr Roberts the voice for caucasian people
Facts not our voice.
I agree
Typo Expeditiously 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Wow. Cruel.
What did they think a landfill was?? Oops, they didnt think.
They didn't care they thought about it very well to put u there
Im not black. I am washitaw native al moroccan 🇲🇦🇺🇲🇲🇦 moor power
Just another great example of a Democrat run city! Just checked and the last Republican mayor was in 1870. Always surprises me what people will do to other people just to make money.
What I've never understood, since becoming an adult, is "how" someone "steers" another to any given neighborhood. Not saying that it doesn't happen, but I've "chosen" to live in predominantly black, white and mixed race neighborhoods since I was in my 20's. Sounds like fraud or something similar to me.
Please watch Follow the Line Part 2 as we discuss steering, blockbusting and racial covenants.
Real estate agents may have only showed buyers property in certain areas. They mentioned that in the video.
I agree. As an adult, no one can "steer" me anywhere. If a realtor only shows me houses in a particular neighborhood, I replace the realtor.
Another lost one smmfh
Red lining is real and as old as time they keep white people out and show black people the properties
Creme de la Creme Epiditiously
This is what happens when you chase after "affordable" housing.
That’s bs. You are victim blaming 😡
@@user-lm1ul2px9p thanks for showing your true colors.
@@PelicanGuy not one word was untrue it's easy to lure blocks with the promise of something free
@@mommyof3gmomof3 Excluded from other communities.
If you don't have much money what are you supposed to do?
The market is very unstable and you can not tell If it's going bearish or bullish. I advise y'all to forget predictions and start making a good profit now because future valuations are all speculations and guesses.When these reports are bullish take some off to the side lines, when news gets bearish start buying. "Keep it simple simple" that bear/ correction was the best thing that happened me. But all thanks to Bernie Austin for his amazing skills for helping me to earn 23.6 Btc through trading chart. I believe we are in the spring phase...
We are washitaw Say our land 🇲🇦🇺🇲🇲🇦
BS
Block people can be kured anywhere they are like sheep easily steered
No lies told.
They were limited by economics.
Your spelling indicates your lack of education. Hence your ignorance.
When you learn how to spell correctly, then tell us what you are trying to say.
