Gentrification in Bklyn
i have spent the passed 2 hours looking through the archives of this tumblr, a tumblr one of my old friends and i shared, ‘nubian queens and tight jeans’ which i renamed to Brooknam Geo .
upon sifting through the archives from information, posts, pictures, people i used to know, some pictures of people i am still in contact with, old silly answers to serious questions we received anonymously, to the 6 year younger me (without my children, or the thought that i’d have children) and young thoughts. so, i began to delete all the old posts...
somewhere in the middle of deleting all the posts, it dawned on me that i was erasing HISTORY. how ever small, this was something we documented together. this is something i needed not do.
originally i needed to post an informational text about how within the passed 10 years the neaghborhood i reside, bed stuy-nyc, is changing.... and then this.
