Same shite happens in North Baton Rouge.
Racism. Not crime. Not poverty. Not culture. Not lifestyle. Not values. Not education. Not poor choices. Racism.
Ya heard me.

Several years ago my mom went to Cortana Mall looking for something she couldn't find anywhere else.. Evidently she found it at some store in Cortana Mall, but she said that they only had it in bigger sizes. She asked them if they had it in small sizes and said that it was the only place that had it, but they are all too big and the person told her "We appeal to a certain clientele".. She is an old petite white woman.. So I guess retail racism is a thing.. But why is this even a story?

It's economics. Simply move to Marietta or Buckhead or Sandy Springs or Dunwoody

Um, I think black people live in Buckhead.
I lived in Techwood 2 years when at GT. GT claimed one of the projects and made a dorm out of it.

If Pope and her husband want to go to their favorite stores and restaurants, they have to hope and pray for good traffic considering they have to drive 14 miles to Atlantic Station and about 20 miles to Lenox Square Mall.

Southwest Atlanta is definitely not upscale. She may stay in a good neighbordhood, but it's likely one of few. Greenbriar Mall is terrible. Alot of that area is hood.
Living in Atlanta area, you have to drive 20-30 minutes to get anywhere that's not in your own immediate area. It's not a big deal to me. If you want to live in Buckhead, you could just move there. But I guess that is racist to say.
