N.O.L.A. Housing Pt. 1

- Опубликовано: 17 апр 2011
- With homelessness on the rise, and thousands still displaced from the ravages of Katrina, why would New Orleans demolish homes that residents still want to live in? And where will those residents go? I was the editor on this story that aired on HDNet's World Report

Public Housing was not supposed to be generational...It was supposed to be a place til you got on your feet..
Public Housing is for PEOPLE with low incomes. It has nothing to do with family relationships.
Right
Apparently you must not understand the struggle if you don't you wouldn't understand her situation so keep your mouth closed
@@truthtellerbelievethat1813 I use to struggle. But I got off my ass and learned a trade that pays good on my own stop trying to be a thug and grew the hell up. Now I'm out the hood. Anyone can do it but people would rather just live off the government for ever instead of doing something to better there income
@@truthtellerbelievethat1813 now days nothing stops anyone but themselves.
PUBLIC HOUSING IS SUPPOSED TO BE TEMPORARY, WHY ARE PEOPLE ALLOWED TO LIVE THERE 20+ YEARS?! THIS IS WHY THE WAITING LIST ARE SO LONG.
Exactly.
This is a much bigger issue when these were built the norm was for Moms to stay home that was what the government wanted they basically paid Moms to stay home and raise their kids through AFDC, food stamps, and low-income housing. Now AFDC is TANF temporary assistance for needy families. Now single Moms have jobs but most of them still can't afford to support themselves and their kids. This is because there are not enough jobs that pay enough even with the job training programs. Another issue the Dads do not pay child support as they should. There is not enough enforcement on dead beat Dads. This is just the norm everywhere not just in New Orleans . Now add the fact most of the people lost their jobs if they had one before the storm. I think people have altered motives for this. Public housing does need to change but their needs to be a better solution so New Orleans doesn't end up with a huge homeless population.
@@jenniferbrooks5446 people need to learn trades to make more money or go back to school. Plenty of single parents get it done. The only thing that stops people is themselves I'm living proof of that
Wow this whole thread is either white or mixed people who don’t identify with black.
Cause a lot of people couldn’t leave and didn’t know how !!! Y’all are sick there is a whole documentary that explains why blacks was kept in projects ...red lining 🤯 and y’all blame the people... wake tf up and stop having people to tell your versions 🤯 wow
@@ThomasShelby-uq8cz nope get a 1099 & work for yourself. I’m in zoom calls daily making my own money and doing my own thing. I’m at 134k a year
One of the worst things a city can do is throw a whole bunch of poor people together into one place. It becomes a sink of vice and crime because NOBODY HAS ANY MONEY. These projects were no different. The first lady said she moved in with SIX children. No mention of a father. "Not everyone can make their fortune, but anyone can make their own poverty by having more children than they can afford." (Don't remember who said it.) Mrs. Jasper made some bad choices. :-(
Well said 👏
Real shit
@@zackzues4830so why are Asians doing the same having tons of kids but most hoods they live in arent crime ridden?
I didn’t realize & think that people would be living off public housing for 20+ years. I thought that was some temporary shyt. But I did see a comment where somebody said them folks take pride in there projects 🤷🏾♂️
Sadly
Rap is a influence.
I grew up in the projects. I be damn if you’ll ever here me say I miss it or want to move back. 🤦♂️
You are one of few with common sense 💯
Touché
👏👏👏
Real talk.
I was born and raised in the St Bernard project and I want to said it was probably good for family members to have a great life and times
These brick projects withstood that crazy storm only a little water damage just to rebuild some new paper houses thats said to been having all kind of mold and leaking issues without a storm
They don't get tired of living in the projects ?
Them old brick buildings are made to handle fire and water .
I dont understand why they did not just renovate those apartments. I also dont think that the process by which they decided to tear them down was fair. How do you issue a mandatory evacuation and then lock people out of their homes? If you have never fallen on hard times, then please dont comment about how long someone stays in a housing development. Its very easy to be in the projects for years because of the rent.
Folks stay in projects because they don't pay much for rent.
Did you even watch the video?
$730 million to renovate apartments that were 50 years old? Or $580 million to build brand new buildings.
Honestly… watch the video. These places were shitholes.
The city did something as bad if not worse to my old neighborhood btwn canal st and tulane.The city wanted to build 2 new hospitals(university hospital and the veteran hospital).Although the city needed a replacement for Charity,what they did was unethical.
They wanted 7x3 city blocks to build the hospitals but people lived there already and owned their houses.The city made a backdoor deal to force people to sell their houses at low prices and used imminent domain laws for those who didn't want to sell.In order to get the houses at the lowest cost they could the city put a moratorium on permits to fix the damages done to houses by the storm.That stopped people from moving back into their houses and also meant that the values of the houses remained at rock bottom.
The developers got the land/houses at low cost and people got pushed out of their own houses.How scummy is that?Thats the local government for you ,totally corrupt.
Sure the city really needed a replacement for charity but they could of renovated charity or found other land.
No bullshit when you a strong person the hood is actually a fun vibrant place for the most part.
No it’s not
@@isaiahbattle547 men was raised out they projects the Problem today they don’t have no projects no neighborhood no big homie over the ward no glen Metz no meatball no Sam scully the major players who commanded and made sure respect was out it’s a lot tht go on in these spots
why blame poor people for government mis management and neglect of public housing? public jousing in the USA was basically a good idea when concieved in the new deal era. Poor people deserve a place to live as much as affluent people, however their resources are severely limited, making choices for housing non existent. Using hurricane Katrina as an excuse to force poor people out of their homes so they can be "redeveloped", without places in the new homes equals ethnic/social cleansing. Sadly, our government equates low income with stupidity, which is totally false. Poor people have rights, sadly they just can't afford to pay for them. Is mixed income housing supposed to make poor people become rich, or just not feel so bad about being poor? Our government, nationwide mismanaged and neglected public housing developements nation wide, so it should me our governments responsibility to take responsibility for their actions and fix the problems that they created. Affluent people, and better paid people have housing choices, whereas poor people have none. If you research public housing in our country, you will see very quickly why public housing is majority minority occupied. Because, most public housing developements were built in poor, minority slum areas in the cities due to segregation policies like redlining.(Ex:Chicago). Why is it when white people of certain ethnicities choose to live together in neighbourhoods, it's okay, but when minority groups and poor people live together in an area, they are abandonned and neglected for decades, then forceably moved out Again, for redevelopement (gentrification), and not able to afford to return? This is nothing more than thinly disguised economic/racial apartheid by our government.
Why they didnt just rebuild their appartments back,I dont understand that shit
Kela Bell too much violence they couldnt wait to tear all the projects down
them white people been dying to tear down these people home.. Most of our famous rappers are from these projects and the government just couldn't wait . . .
White people used to live in them at one time.
Because the wanted to push all the poor black ppl out and rebuild new homes for white ppl
Basically Katrina was planned then
I thought you would want to get out the projects? I’ve been to the projects and been around it. There are very nice people that live there. We’ve had good times and still do. I still go to the projects. I even have family there. But would I want to live there? No. I don’t get this mentality.
Dey could have rebuilt da projects
Same style\look and it would b just as new as it was bac in da day
To me da new apartments aint new orleans da bricks and concrete I grew up hearin bout\knowin is new orleans...& even dough I aint from new orleans inna way I see it as my new orleans cause its louisiana people I consider every1 born raised in louisiana my family only Louisiana people know da struggles when stuff happens
Like katrina or flood of 2016 in BR Albany denham springs etc in Louisiana R.I.P old new orleans :°(
Learn to spell
Facts
It’s not your New Orleans 🤣 you aren’t from there
Facts ...I’m not from New Orleans but my family is ...and my mother housed 400 people. She made the news . I remember growing up literally helping and driving down and couldn’t believe what I witnessed being so young. I was 13 years
No they need to redo it. Get out of the struggle mentality
The government gave the poor free housing and the poor did not appreciate it these places look the same before and after hurricane Katrina that's what's really sad I can't tell the difference can you?
It was not free they still had to pay a percentage of their income for rent.
@@jenniferbrooks5446 exactly
The government gave them to white folks first and they tore them down to get the white people back
It's crazy because the blocks and streets people been killing for are being taken and all they can do is watch
I aint going to lie them ugly brick projects look like they were infested with rats, rouches, ants, and all kinds of shit that stink lol.
Not to me Dey really look like old slave plantations, I mean this is one of da 1st states blacks hit so yea it’s jus old/cultural vibes down there
@@Ripkb824 true I get it, I would rather live in the LA housing projects if I had to choose.
@@southsidecompton9668 Look where u said doe bro LA 😂 Dese da slaves grand & great-grand kids left over in a poor state….dey didn’t have a choice lol
@@Ripkb824 they moved to LA?
@@Ripkb824dude whtes lived there first like there are still jwish or also asian hoods in NY or other parts of US. The problem is poor minds like you who believe the BS of wannabe rebel rappers that are actually slve to the dollar. After they took people from Africa to US it was too late so you got 2 options: stay there or go back to roots. As slvery ended people moved to places they could affort and those were mostly whte working class hoods til there was a ethnic exchange. After it became a crime ridden area so the question is why is that? The alternative ld be to go to where people might come from but then you ld say you r an american and that is racist as you know that living in Africa would still be much worse than in any US hood. So the main point is you would always complain about it.
New Orleans some of the most Legendary projects in the country
I know this old but if the mom's trust in God and keep the faith he will provide something better n store for you
They say "1 for 1 replacement". What do you do about the violence and killings that were taking place there? How does letting certain individuals back better anything. It would be the same character with a different outfit on. I think it should be some kind of process set in place for certain individuals to complete before returning. That way, at least you have people invested in a change. So you'd have a better chance at change in the community.
Probably those people who were causing those issues weren't even supposed to be living there? They could make strict rules and actually enforce them kick those people out . If the culprits are minors get them in programs out of the complex.
It's all gone now they ripped people fams down and destroyed alot of culture also, many people died around them prodjects then they just built new ones
The same way y’all allow pedos live next door and keep them around...the kids ...
They’re not bring them homes down ....
Why people want to live in a project?
thhdhn2 the people we become family n enemies but still family
Because it's AFFORDABLE.
thhdhn2 the Saint Bernard, calioup, magnolia , etc was a shit hole. Sooo many ppl died, sooo many were killed. Only the mentally ill would want to be sad about not living there anymore. So many were in poverty . The grass had blood everywhere.
@@tomrob8342 Maybe the good outweighed the bad? Like they keep saying it was like a family. (I have never lived in low-income housing I was on sec 8 at one time.) There has to be a better way. This transformation leaves too many people out in the cold.
For the same reason people chose to be hateful
R.I.P. ST Bernard 😇7th Ward hardheads. Miss you Mami Ella Grandmother Leola Tutti. Ms Yvonne auntie lisa Jummonville CT Sere St, Senate
The genocide of old NOLA caught on video.
You raised all of your children there and still didn’t get on your feet? Very sad..
It looked like prison
All housing projects are prisons for poor people
@@ronniedavis6889well you can stay on free street while its freezing or raining heavy. No prison in nature bruh
The place was an eye soar. It needed to go. Maxine waters made money on this.
Please let them rebuild this projects,I lived in magnolia projects for a year coming from Nigeria... and I can tell you,it was a nightmare, great people,but the violence was a nightmare, Jesus Christ,I couldn't live the house with fear of junkies not robbing me, please rebuild I support it... great community just violence

Their called PROJECTS because they are exactly that, an EXPERIMENT , A PROJECT! To confine black to in a crammed area with no jobs, no opportunities. Then with lack of jobs and money, frustration, angry, depression, desperation kicks in. Idle hands are the devils workshop. Then they introduce drugs and liquor stores to the community. So they can damage the souls and families living there. Also it gives an only means of income by selling and killing their own people. To top it off the icing on the cake they continually lock up and incarcerate the people forced to sell the drugs. Destroying the families and lives even more. Then since the only way to provide is by drug dealing, they introduced guns into the community . So that now you either rob and kill the dealers with money, or kill each other over turf because someone now stepping on your toes trying to take away your bread. It’s the Ultimate trap!!! A PLANNED PREMEDITATED PROJECT. What they didn’t factor Is the good hearted individuals and families that would call it home !
If it wasn't no beefing n killings think bout how strong tha people would be from tha jests big unity
I’m glad they tore it down.
Only women saying they wanna stay😂😂😂😂😂 then u have ppl commented 4 murders
They pushed them all to the east where it totally flooded
Where are the modern day low income projects in Nola? These locations seem mixed income now a days...
Some real fuck up shit 💯
but what he said is true
Home r not city/area looks way better since they tore that shit down even before katrina. And crime has went down like it r not 🤷🏻♂️ work and get out the projects
It does look better.
I paid that rent...
Wow they really 🧠 washed
🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🥹🧐🤔♊️👍🏿💯🥺⚜️☺️🤦🏿♂️🥰
Snakes
This is silly. US citizens are paying for these folks to live through our tax dollars so NO y’all don’t have a say. People in this country whine and complain and want want want. The government has babied many and it needs to end. Go get a job and if you have one and you cannot afford anything get a second third and forth job. Make your own money and manage your circumstances. It’s not for US citizens to take care of free loaders. Yea i said it lol
You idiot do you understand that people paid rent in the projects
The worst thing for new Orleans was the white man
The white men who build up the city and gave you houses? 😂 Stop the LSD quick!
The black tap dancing 🦝 is the worst
Katrina come back finish the job haha
susan frye bitch shut the fuck up
