FORT GREENE, N.Y. (CBSNewYork) — Spike Lee had some harsh words for whites moving into predominantly black neighborhoods in New York City while speaking at a Black History Month lecture at Pratt Institute on Tuesday.
Spike Lee's Comments On NYC Gentrification Spark Debate In Fort Greene


As 1010 WINS’ Carol D’Auria reported Wednesday, the director and Brooklyn native said that white newcomers to neighborhoods like Fort Greene and Bedford-Stuyvesant are doing the wrong things.

Lee told the audience that while he’s all for democracy, he doesn’t like that whites are trying to impose their standards and wealthy ideas on everyone and everything, D’Auria reported.

According to Lee, with white gentrification comes disruption. The entire rant was transcribed by New York magazine. Here’s an excerpt:

“Here’s the thing: I grew up here in Fort Greene. I grew up here in New York. It’s changed. And why does it take an influx of white New Yorkers in the south Bronx, in Harlem, in Bed Stuy, in Crown Heights for the facilities to get better? The garbage wasn’t picked up every (expletive) day when I was living in 165 Washington Park. P.S. 20 was not good. P.S. 11. Rothschild 294. The police weren’t around. When you see white mothers pushing their babies in strollers, three o’clock in the morning on 125th Street, that must tell you something.”

Some Fort Greene residents who spoke to D’Auria on Wednesday agreed that high-priced restaurants and bars that cater to whites could breed resentment.

“I’m not an old-timer, I go to these places. But I could imagine if I was – you’d feel excluded,” said Drew. “If an area that had been tolerant of or open to a certain kind of culture and then it’s changing. That could cause a lot of conflict. I can see that happening here.”

Meanwhile, Whyel told D’Auria that he doesn’t have a problem with the changes. He said if because of the whites the neighborhood improves, that’s great. And of Spike Lee’s complaints, “If he needs something to complain about focus on some other stuff: shootings, drugs.”

Spike Lee Demands Caucasians “Get Outta” Black Neighborhoods

White liberals have been very good to Spike Lee, pouring money and praise upon him in return for the excruciatingly politically correct movies he directs. Here he returns the favor exactly as we have come to expect:

Spike Lee went on a long-winded rant against gentrification in New York City on Tuesday night when he was asked to argue against the development of poorer neighborhoods in Brooklyn and Harlem. …

Lee pointed the finger at white New Yorkers who have moved into historically black neighborhoods and changed the environment, arguing that those changes have caused the areas to evolve into something completely different.

This avatar of the enlightened liberal establishment shares his sophisticated wisdom:

“Then comes the mother*****’ Christopher Columbus Syndrome. You can’t discover this! We been here. You just can’t come and bogart.”

I’ll bet you didn’t know the New York City area was originally settled by Africans.

“There were brothers playing mother*****’ African drums in Mount Morris Park for 40 years and now they can’t do it anymore because the new inhabitants said the drums are loud.”

The constant sophomoric use of obscene language is so that other liberals can identify him as genuine.

Lee told a story about how a party in Fort Greene park was proposed in honor of [homosexual child molester] Michael Jackson when the singer died but the plan got nixed after residents complained that there would be too much garbage.

‘Garbage? Have you seen Fort Greene Park in the morning? It’s like the mother*****’ Westminster Dog Show. There’s 20,000 dogs running around. Whoa. So we had to move it to Prospect Park!’ Lee said. …

‘You can’t just come in when people have a culture that’s been laid down for generations and you come in and now s*** gotta change because you’re here? Get the f*** outta here. Can’t do that!’

Send in your welfare money, white oppressor, but you stay out of our culturally enriched, racially homogeneous slums!

By the way, Lee has lived on the Upper East Side with his wealthy white admirers since 2000. If anyone could be phonier than his fans, it could only be Spike Lee himself.

Spike Lee is the perfect example of the nigger mentality....

he hates whites for holding blacks back, hates whites for his pain and suffering, used the black man's plight in life to make a few movies, moved his way to the top, and STILL hates white men... the whole time he is using the blacks to pad his wealth, and turns a deaf ear to the poor black folks asking for help......

he is as useless as Rev Al, Jessie Jackson, Samuel L Jackson...... these punks are butthole wealthy, and use their money to tell the poor how whitey is holding them back.
