Viva Loisaida, 1978 

Once the 2000's rolled around the world went to the shit house i no that much, bring back the 90's anyday or even the 80's or 70's.

@@davechristian7543well, a lot of people still do this in some parts of the world or in certain communities here in the states. But overall, I get his point! I. e when I go visit my father in Puerto Rico, people will randomly start talking to you at the supermarket or bus stop like they’ve known you their whole lives…especially the older ones, which fits in a tad with his point, but it’s not completely obsolete. It is annoying to be a millennial or be with Gen Z & they’re staring at their phones more than they’re talking to each other, even if they’re with people that are family/ they know.. I try to not look at my phone when with family, friends, people who are different and I want to learn more about… but sometimes the people are staring more at their phones/devices than talking to one another or they’re talking to each other, but still staring at their phones… can be a bit aggravating. You want to tell them…BE IN THE PRESENT. When I’m alone… I am too much on my phone though… but I can at least say that’s not so when in company

​@@davechristian7543 Yes let's bring back the eras that were the most violent, dangerous, and drug filled. Shut yo stupid boomer ass up

I lived on 6th street Between first and Avenue A in the 80’s. Was a great place to grow up. Now it’s filled with watered down gentrified hipsters. The culture is gone! Yes it was a dangerous place but that’s what made it what it was. I moved out in mid 90’s. I haven’t been back to visit since 2005. That place is dead to me now

yup

What ever happened to Amy Morrison, Donald Ozard and his brother?

​@@jayonez137what was Rivington 👍

@@matthewjdouglas6471Rivington Street.

We have a community garden on the upper west side. I've worked there for almost 20 years. In the last 10 years, all of the older members have moved away or died, and the new members barely lift a finger.

Tommy morales?

It was dangerous but that's what made it what it was? That was the main problem of the ethnic ghettoes at that time and still remains an issue as you can easily divide communities just by that talking point or lack of consciousness I should say. People want to better their own communities and do it in a coalition way of uniting all communities against displacement and demanding a better alternative

I guess Giuliani making the city safer was a bad thing……

@@inupiaq9563 It’s not that he did a bad thing obviously intentions were good but the city as I know it changed. Disney took over 42nd St., The Soulless hipsters like YOURSELF Took over the lower East side And drove prices through the roof where people who were born and raise there couldn’t afford to stay. Again! I’m just saying there is zero culture and zero grit these days. Maybe you should man up instead of being scared of your shadow. And stop trying to dissect my words. Take it for what it is

@@jayonez137 I’m not hipster at all. I’m not even a liberal or even live in NYC. I was in the military and served my country proudly for almost seven years. I ended up getting medically retired. You don’t even know me and you’re saying I’m a soulless hipster.

@@inupiaq9563 I apologize for assuming that! Thank you for your service. So many trolls on RU-vid I don’t know who is telling the truth anymore

Thanks

@@AsiaMinor12 Dublin had Victorian slums .. it was known for having the poorest slums in Europe going back a couple of hundred years. That's why they started demolishing them in the 70's /80's

Chinatown will look like that soon ... plans of gentrification is occurring there now. You should watch my "Democracies in Chinatown: 1974-1994" which also depicts similar "ethnic" struggles.

I know, there is a lack of adventuresome and further east towards Ave D, maybe. It is so gentrified that People of Color look out of place with alcoholic NYU students & parents just dining at overpriced food venues & bars as well as shop in boutiques or at Whole Foods, Marshalls, & Target.

it say it's private no access

Try this version with jazz musicians, Larry Roland and James Brandon Lewis overlapping Marlis' "Viva Losada" as soundtrack ... it has a contemporary feel since jazz also was developed via Don Cherry, Lee Morgan and others ... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-r6XptyGYddg.html

OK, I put it back on public for you to review within this week ... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-SHCLQzHH344.html

Its very cool 😎 👌

Cool 😎

No, I believe it is Marlis' ex-husband at the time.

That was pedro??

@@humblebragger500 No it was Bimba Rivas who precluded Pedro Pietri & one of founders of Nuyorican Poets Cafe. see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bimbo_Rivas

Maybe look on ebay !

@@jeianalottie Hell no ❤🤣

@@jeianalottie You thinking they are on back order sweetness?

It is! Makes me think of how many people had little recorders and took footage of weddings, birthdays, so forth with this background not realizing how invaluable it is. Well, the footage of places and things will probably become something to see in the future… especially COVID times

🙄

sure does look like him. My dad used to live in the same area/neighborhood as Guzman, I'd have to ask him where they were.

I thought the same thing, lol! Well, he is from L.E.S and reps it to the fullest.

That's def him

the dude looked like the guy from carlitos way!

Ever heard of gentrifiers, politicians, urban renewal, Reaganomics, developers, Yuppies, flip floppin' politics, & more?

@@SusanLYung Don't forget the role of neoliberals too

@@mahirrahman7 Everything is upside down. I'm in the Gowanus Superfund neighborhood & expectation that by 2035 this quiet family nabe will have 3,500 more gentrifiers moving into luxury 20 storied buildings that CM Brad Lander has rezoned in 2021. The one-storied warehouses are disappearing.
