Ever heard of Cairo, GA?

@@imnotvaeri Not from Charlie

@hybridatomsk yeah just watched one.

Yet...Medical headhunters were begging Doctors to come there thirty years ago.

@@drpoundsign Sometimes the government will forgive student loans for newly qualified doctors if they agree to practice in underserved communities.

U tell me clarksdale Mississippi is poor I use to come to the funeral home with my a man name Danny and I'm shawanna from Dermott Arkansas

its a blue city in a red state . rebuplicons dont give a shit about the poor .

Hope??? There never was any hope@clarksburg, Mississippi

Lord I couldn't imagine

There must not be any work there.

@@hoopty. yes it is

Yes it’s a bad place

@@deuntahawkins6609 What type of work could be in a place, and operate in that environment? I've driven thru that area and it's like a 3rd world country.

Lots of elderly , some of them taking care of children, even while their health is failing.

Nc got spot s Look this here !

Its sad when your neighbor is hoarding the entire states rat infestation in their front yard

Yeah, they have an escape plan!

Ya, they decided to fly north for the summer.

Twenty years later most people will be gone. Moved on or passed away. There are many ghost towns.

It was Like that in 1990s

Beautiful city dump

Theres a lot worse in the rural desert towns of America. The small town I live outside of literally looks like WW111 already happened.

Hope not..

Renovations? How about basic upkeep

@@fhowland lol Î was being generous

stagnant decline of course

@ErokX8150 on DUBS

White neighborhoods of old turned into 3rd world squalor today. As American as apple pie

Agreed. Find the poorest neighborhood in any city and it will look just like this.

🤣🤣😭

It's amazing the number of musicians from MS there's a Wikipedia page. I wouldn't expect much from a guy who straight up stole his name from the real OG

Don't blame that on Rick Ross it was like that before he was even born

@@TheBluesmanBlue so he doesn't know any better here in the 21st century?

I'd love to eyeball your domain.

Its not about weaknesses it about politics the cuckservatives are the ones responsible for Mississippi being the way it is , same for most of the South to be honest

@@primus3601 both parties to blame, don’t just focus on that your whole life. Easier said than done, but be strong

@@Mrripit10 Nope false equivalency, I'm from Mississippi and the party that has dominated that state for years are Republicans, It has nothing to do with "strength " that's just empty rhetoric. Its the elective representatives who people choose, to run their state. It just common sense.

@@primus3601 that’s your situation, other party has done the same in other states and much worse

@@Mrripit10 Also false. most poor states ARE Republican as a matter of fact 9 of 10 of the poorest states are Republican states and there all pretty bad. Facts don't care about your feelings buddy

You are very right about this.

@@yourpurpose5548 The ruling class want to completely get rid of the middle class, and they want there to just be the tiny handful of rich and the teeming masses of poor who are under the subjugation of some kind of authoritarian political regime.

Thank a democrat

Lord I hope not please

Once the white people become a minority

I’m not even just southern cities. Every city. Go to Detroit, Baltimore, Chicago. This is everywhere. Welcome to America. It’s only gonna get worse.

This is actually a brilliant idea

Yes they are building places and houses here in clarksdale not that much but they are

Uhhhhhhhhh.....NO

Man these people not trying to come to the hood and fix these houses up

@@EdwardMorris-wv6fe true tho but my dad builds

0:51 😂🤣

That car ain’t worth a damn thing

🥱

They’re

That's what I was thinking. They care more about the car they drive than the roof over their head.

roads are not good.

It's a thrift shop?

@@tinicum54 freedom is dangerous

Maybe it's not...what can be done about it? You can't fine them (no $), you can't threaten them (they don't care) and you can evict them.

once a upon a time yes but not anymore

FAWK clarksdale DO BETTER THEN

Lol

It is filth

A person can be poor and not a slob.

That would be trespassing and a very dangerous proposition.

@@mikejohn0088 how is that May I ask?

@@violasbakedandcookeddeligh1596 --you can't just go onto someone's property and remove "stuff" (and the city can't either). It's trespassing. The person living there decides what he/she thinks is "valuable" even though it all appears to be garbage and IF the city did remove it that's a potential lawsuit. The person living there decides what he/she thinks is "valuable" and decides if protecting should be with fists, knives or shotguns. Keep in mind these people are rather desperate which is highlighted by their subsistence life style - most would welcome a good fight to break the boredom.

@@mikejohn0088 I agree that nobody should go on somebody own personal property and pick up their personal trash I totally agree with that however I think the city should go pick up trash that’s on the sidewalks, and in the street, it’s despicable that the city can’t pick up trash on the street and city property.

Everybody from Chi is originally from Mississippi 💯🤣✊🏾

@@jerrytatum3334 facts

Yup so my mom and gma

I lived in Clarksdale in 1974, went to George Oliver Grammer school, if anyone was there then or lived in the 900 blk of Florida Holla back..

I can see why...

@@leorickt.9604 💀🤭

THE birth place at the crossroads where Robert Johnson sold his soul in exchange for the guitar blues.

lmao!!!

I would not exactly call this a hood. My city has large areas with very expensive homes that transform into war zones from time to time. The Philippines is much poorer, yet people are cheerful and keep hope alive. There is no government support at all. Nothing.

@@eddenoy321 you are completely wrong in the Philippines everything is not about money. In the Philippines you can legally live off grid in america in some states it's illegal to collect rainwater.Village life is not bad in fact it is people culture and most people would choose to that over living in america.In African countries people from villages save up money and send their kids to America and they usually come back because they can't handle the system.See in America you have no choice but to live paycheck to paycheck and you can only hunt in seasons in other places you have it easy you can simply just kill and cook your damn food and build your own houses.

@@eddenoy321 have you been to Jackson Mississippi

@@blue-yc6iu have you ever been to Jackson

@@Iknowyoumadnow America was involved in this wacky thing called World War II (WWII) from 1941-1945. During this time America developed an atom bomb. To ensure they wouldn’t have to invade the island of Japan and have millions die on both sides (referred to as operation downfall today) America made the life altering decision to deploy these atom bombs over two coastal cities in Southern Japan. Hiroshima & Nagasaki. The destruction was immeasurable with both cities almost being entirely flattened. This is what this neighborhood looks like.

@@Iknowyoumadnow 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭😭😭

Talent?

@@jaykekeola can your read? that's exactly what I said.

@@kadaejamccray2204 I was inquiring as to what talent. Damn, no wonder you people live in slums, you're rude too.

Thank you forreal he need to show Oakhurst in stuff

"Its a lot" -- It this how they educate you people there, or do you just choose to use terrible grammar?

Bro this is the hood ain't nothing but trouble in clarksdale

Like a Johnny Rebel song

I'd rather catch the bus & put that money towards a vegetable garden & making a nice home but thats just me 《 not allowed a home 》

@@nickywilliams8540 vegetable garden???!!!!..well I'm sure buying a car wouldn't stop you from being able to grow vegetables...

Crown Vic on DUBS

@@hemaloid419 Cars cost alot to maintain & register ...

Mainly because the cost of living is so low.

@@bramlintrent1145 elsewhere in US "Cost of living " is thought the roof.

I bet it's because they: The were born and raised there and know no difference. They have no cash to leave. They have no place to go and no motivation to leave. They get their EBT there. They know the lay of the land there. They have a good RX connection. They have a piece of tail down the street. That's why.

Yea rather have a nice house and a reasonable car it don't have to be 2023 model ,But long it can get me from Point A to Point B.

Most of them people need a decent care to work there is no transit system there without a nice car most of them can't earn a living those are hard working people don't believe the stereotypes get to know real people also they should be allowed to enjoy themselves among all that madness sure a lot of people wast money but not many there keep grinding to all the people living there when you see poverty like that it's all political

Bro the shit cap everybody is different and bro just showing you the bad part of clarksdale

​@@leebuch7610 do you know how much money these people really making

MAGA TROLL?-Money sent to Ukraine is a separate issue- if u do not send them money- u fight here in the USA

why do yall have to be so ignorant? maybe blame the damn republicans in control of Mississippi.

Boy gets hot ass hell down here no cap

It doesn't take the local government to pick up the trash that is scattered on your property. 10 minutes and a garbage bag - Just sayin...

This is the hood ain't s*** in Clarksdale but trouble

It is disrespectful

Charlie focuses on run down areas that most people are afraid to venture into. If I am interested in the nice parts of a town I look at Google Street View or the town's official site. It is a great idea Brenda to contact local officials!

@@dianamarie5663 these people are remedial, just like from where they come from

No.

More like section 7

He posted the brickyard. There are plenty of nice, clean neighborhoods in clarksdale. If a video is going to be made then he should have shown the clean parts, the nice homes and yards instead of choosing the poorest part of town to showcase. Yes folks should be doing better upkeep and cleaning up and maintaining homes but most of these folks can’t afford to do that. The people of clarksdale for the most part are good hearted , decent people.
