Agreeing with Jona, the video was very hard to understand, i had to listen to it twice to get the full understanding. Mary Patillo made some very vaild points on the situation that was first presented in the video when the professor said that just because a neighborhood is clean it should be expected to be a white peoples nieghborhood. Just how the same can be assumed with a dirty nieghborhood to be owned by black people just because it is dirty. the assumptions we make about people and their living are widly known and widely sterotyped. I've lived in many places before settling in Woodridge with my family. Previously living in Chicago when i was young i lived in a nieghborhood with people of many colors and people not getting alone. None of it made sense to me and i guess it got so bad that no one could stand eachother because people started moving and then we moved. We are better off in the nieghborhood we are in now because people are less racist and quick to making assumptions but i always ask my dad why it didn't work out there. Other then the video being very poor in being able to understand Mary Patillo is a very interesting speaker and makes very good points.
