I just got here in Atlanta 6 months ago and I do not really like the vibe here.<br />There is NO UNITY Here what so ever and Pookie and Leon are so busy looking around to see who is driving a nicer car than them so they can hate. This is also the WEAVE CAPITAL of the world...OH LORD...<br />Is there ANY sistas w/real hair here??<br />You are right about the obesity issue....for every attractive slim figured lady I see I see 15 "tanks".<br />I went to the "wind down" at centennial park and it was a whale fest.<br />75% of the females were OBESE (NOT OVERWEIGHT...OBESE) 250+lbs wearing<br />size 2's...they should of been charged with public indecency...it was horrible and I lost my lunch by VOMITING.....<br />On top of that many of the tanks have attitudes and will NOT talk to a brotha UNLESS he "appears" to be in the music and/or entertainment biz..(MEANING if you have a flashy car, LIE and say you know P Diddy and claim they can get you into urban modeling...that is the line being abused here by men on a 24 hour basis.)<br />I fyou plan on coming here the clubs are TOTALLY overrated, with a upscale ghetto flair.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5673677255428269722.post-23503412376848423052010-11-03T09:36:46.752-04:002010-11-03T09:36:46.752-04:00I was born in Augusta, Georgia and I'm proud o...I was born in Augusta, Georgia and I'm proud of the fact that James Brown--The Godfather of Soul was also born there. My roots in Georgia go back over 4 generations and I'm proud of my heritage, however, Georgia has always been a haven for white hate/bigotry and the Blacks there accomodate it. <br /><br />How is that in 2010, you have a new generation of Black folks who still are afraid to tell white folks off when they are disprespecting them? I've seen this in many places. I absolutely will not tolerate anyone disrespecting me, but you can't get some of the Black folks, particularly the older ones to understand that you don't have to allow folks to dehuminize you--you have a right to command and demand they respect you or get the fuck on before they get hurt.TheUppitySistahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11528896527530080909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5673677255428269722.post-39551538342949277842010-11-02T16:05:18.822-04:002010-11-02T16:05:18.822-04:00I am really very sorry that your experience in the...I am really very sorry that your experience in the South has been worse than expected. I personally love the country (trees, earth, being able to breathe without choking on exhaust), but I hate that Georgia is sooo country, and I see you know what I mean. But the thing that drives me absolutely nuts is the lack of professionalism and the fact that 70% of the people you meet want to do nothing with their lives but work deadend jobs. You moved here? Try being born here.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5673677255428269722.post-27838185108975202072010-10-31T12:51:32.884-04:002010-10-31T12:51:32.884-04:00No, I haven't read the book, but I'll have...No, I haven't read the book, but I'll have to add it to my list.TheUppitySistahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11528896527530080909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5673677255428269722.post-26090820229294932982010-10-30T05:19:17.705-04:002010-10-30T05:19:17.705-04:00Hi, loved reading this.
