I lived in Boston for 21 years. Love that place and I say it is my adoptive state (I am from a US territory). I left Boston because between 2015 and 2018 me and my family experienced a sudden increase in micro aggressions that culminated with a white kid attacking my black son with a metal chair in front of the teacher and the teacher did nothing to stop the attack because my son "could take it". I asked the teacher if my son would have defended himself if he would have intervene then and he said "of course, I said he can take it, not that he could fight him". The kid got 6 months probation and if he didn't re offend during those 6 months charges would be dropped and if he re offended, he would have done 6 months at a juvenile center. To be clear, I am ok with that. The next week my husband was hired by two racist guys who offered him to work "without papers" when my husband is American. Finally at work a new employee was annoyed that he had to ask me, as his superior, for permission to leave and sent me an email saying "I'm heading back to where I came from and you should too." and Cc'd the entire team including my superior, thinking that his whiteness was enough to protect him. He was fired after refusing to apologize to me (and the team) and for refusing to stay as he was instructed by his superior and his superior's superior. Regardless the damage was done. Boston wasn't home anymore, it is damaged goods. I'm back home and I'm happy. Here I'm just another human walking down the street. I like that a lot.

Trees and scenery are being replaced with tons of buildings, homes and traffic. These are big changes for rural areas, so we are allowed to be conservative in that regard. Chicago and Atlanta have drastically different origins, cultures, historical context, and economies. The bible belt is conservative, but its slowly changing. Just understand Atlanta is a unique metro area and pretending like all cities are the same is silly. We are all conservative to one degree or another in varying ways. You shouldnt let that turn you away from experiencing what's around you.

Gotta say, it’s definitely one of the most racist places I’ve been to. And my family’s from the South. I visited the city once and went to two stores while I was there. In both stores, I was told I was supposed to pay for the items I had in my shopping basket and a little girl asked me how “my skin got this way” before her mother ran over and said “we don’t ask them that question”. It’s probably a wonderful city for some people, but certainly not a place I’d go to without an incentive.

I think the biggest problem in Boston is the teachers do nothing, if they see bullying.

In high school things get much better

Aaaargh! White guy here, born in Boston. I took over management and operations of the Boston School Transportation system under an independent management contract just a few years after Judge W. Arthur Garrity's desegregation order and was in that system for nearly 20 years. About 68% of my workforce of +/- 1400 employees - drivers, mechanics, supervisors, etc. - were non-white. In accordance with the terms of my contract I scheduled "Diversity Training" sessions at the outset of the contract. At one of the first meetings I made a reference to "minorities" but was called out on that. "Mister, just so you know. You are the minority here, not us." It was a wake-up call and then I started to learn and become aware of the challenges my employees faced - every day - in their respective neighborhoods and while on the job in some parts of Boston where they were not really welcome. It was humbling to say the least. Yeah, "Blue" Boston still has a deep "Red" streak...

Racism in Boston mostly manifests itself in home ownership/rentals. There are places where a highly educated & distinguished black person/family won't be allowed to live and this is accomplished through homeowner associations or realtors (or both). Fenway Park is notorious for racist punks because the club ignored the issue until recently when it got splashed in the major newspapers around the country and brought enormous shame to the city/area and threatened their ability to sign quality talent. I lived there for over 20 years so I'm speaking from firsthand experience.

Gotta say, it’s definitely one of the most racist places I’ve been to. I'm Black and my family’s from the South. I visited the city once and went to two stores while I was there. In both stores, I was told I was supposed to pay for the items I had in my shopping basket and a little girl walked up to me and asked me how “my skin got this way” before her mother ran over and said “we don’t ask them that question”. It’s probably a wonderful city for some people, but certainly not a place I’d visit or live in without an incentive.

I’m Asian American, born and raised in NYC. Oh yeah, I felt the racism for sure when I visited Boston a few years ago. I got stares by white folks as if I’m some alien foreigner. And no, I wasn’t wearing some outrageous outfit or anything that would attract attention other than the color of my skin. The last time I had this happening was when I visited Frankfurt, Germany with my family couple of years ago, everyone stared at us on the train. I would assume this happens if I visited somewhere south of the USA, but I wouldn’t of thought a huge city in the northeast would act this way, but YUP. The reason I bring this up is because for centuries nobody listened to Asian voices about racism towards us, this new generation is tired of it, time to speak out especially now more than ever before. No more sweeping it under the rug. This so called “model minority” is very damaging. Side note: I grew up with racist remarks since I was a kid by white neighbors, and I lived in the most diverse city on earth, QUEENS NY. racist folks are everywhere.... even where you think there won’t be. Unfortunately. Let’s spread love not hate. Also - first and foremost - Black Lives Matter. The Black community are the only ones I was able to confide in and look up to because of the struggles they’ve been through, I couldn’t relate my own experiences with any other, there were no Asian representation or voices heard anywhere when I grew up. Let’s love one another 💜

I think the big problem is that people are still expecting racism to be always look like n-words and white hoods, and that's just not how it is.

I’m from Boston and white. Yes we have a problem, I was teased endlessly as a kid for sticking up for the rights of black people. It infuriated me as a kid and it still does today. That was outright racism I saw by kids who followed parents lead. I find most people don’t feel that way about skin, they don’t outright hate people for their skin color. They do overlook everything they are experiencing though, and part of that is the result of a systematic racism that needs to be pointed out. Thankfully we are starting to talk about it. In the media, in the news, and my hope is it will spread to white people talking with each other. I have friends from all over with different understanding of the level of systematic racism and what it is. I do hear conversations happening in different places, but people are hard to change, and the fact is for most people racism is hating someone for the color of their skin. If they don’t feel that way they feel their done with that issue.You can change the name of Yawkey Way all you want, but until black families feel welcome in Fenway Park, we’ve done nothing.
