[quote=Anonymous]I've lived and schooled in DC my whole life. Love this city. I would NEVER refer to DC as a "dangerous inner city". Like any city in the USA there are areas where violence is greater than others. When my family moved out to the Md suburbs they worried about me because after watching TV News reports on incidents of violence, they imagined the reports were representative of the entire city. This is common in the successful "marketing" of the "business" of everyday racism. It's a "major brand" being etched into the psyche...being internalized. The system that sells racism is doing a fantastic job. Millions of Americans believe DC is a dangerous inner city. My friends and I are the obvious insane. We feel safe here. :-)[/quote]
