Not like “I went to school with one” but have had an actual friendship?

I’ve had a couple of conversations recently where people have confidently said things about the Black community that are ridiculously incorrect. The kind of shit where you can tell they grew up in a very white community and learned about Black history as a college freshman.

Disclaimer: I am white, but I grew up in a Black neighborhood. I was one of 3 white kids in my elementary school lol, including my brother.

    I’ve always had the suspicion that Detroit has really cleaned up since the early 2000s and is underrated in the national narrative. Is that true?

    I like living in cold places, so I might look into buying a house there one day.
