I sometimes feel like ppl visit/move to West Palm with a knowing the demographics of the area.

I recently seen a video by a Black conservative influencer named Rob Smith walking Downtown. He said he doesn’t want to see the “Bonnet Brigade” in West Palm. Black neighborhoods that are still trying to recover from the crack epidemic are literally 2 miles away from Downtown. Same things are said about Singer Island. I grew up in these areas and it’s always been like this.

*with out knowing*

Rafael Trujillo is known for ordering the Parsley massacre but him buying Haitian laborers isn’t talked about.

If you haven’t watched it already. I recommend watching a Netflix show called Rotten: Season 2, Episode 4 “A Sweet Deal.” In the 1950’s Haitian President Paul Magloire’s sold laborers to Rafael Trujillo’s Dominican sugar empire, a system later inherited and normalized by modern Big Sugar interests. Those laborers were sent primarily to Dominican sugar plantations (bateyes), many of which were owned or controlled by U.S. sugar interests. They bought Haitian laborers because they wanted laborers that didn’t speak Spanish, so couldn’t protest. The descendants of these laborers speak Spanish and some began to protest because these sugar companies are not paying these laborers pensions, Brutal working conditions
and then boom. in September 2013 DR’s Constitutional Court issued a landmark ruling that stripped citizenship from people of Haitian descent.

Renovating the bathroom can increase rent and home values, I know that. The bathroom needs to be renovated. Trying to see as an investor should I possibly try to go cheaper.
