Spike Lee is angry. He’s actually very angry because those evil white people are moving into his ‘hood in Brooklyn. They call it gentrification. It’s almost like guess who’s coming to dinner in reverse. But you see, since Spike Lee is black and mad at evil whitey, there are no media hacks yelling RACISM or HATE or whatever.
Lets hope ole racist Spike doesn’t tweet the addresses of those evil white people moving into the ‘hood like he did the elderly couple in Florida (that he thought was George Zimmerman.)
Spike Lee isn’t happy with the current wave of gentrification in his beloved Big Apple and neighboring communities.
The vocal director implied that racism is behind some of the perks from gentrification, from better police protection in neighborhoods with an influx of white citizens to improved amenities for newer city dwellers.Lee made the comments during a Black History Month event at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn. The director’s outrage wasn’t limited to the contrast in attitudes by local officials. He also said new residents should pay their proper respects to the existing populace and not expect the local culture to do their bidding.
