Architecture

I grew up in Atlanta - officially within the city limits but in a very white and financially privileged suburb. It looked like this

I was fortunate to go to probably the best public high school in the city and it wasn’t all white as people might expect. It was right on the nose 49% black due to busing. The law allowed for non-whites to make up to 49% of the school and no more. The black students were picked through academic achievement so the black kids earned their way there but I was there by default by districting. White or black, graduating seniors went on to college at over 99% and drop outs were unheard of. I took advantage of that and went to a good college out west. Back then working your way through college was a real thing and I hated my parents more than working so that’s what I did. I stayed out of the south for a good two decades then I made the worst decision of my life and moved to Florida.

How did you end up in Mexico and do you figure on staying there?
