Review of Memphis, Tennessee


Sure, it's a hellhole, but
Star Rating - 12/1/2005
People don't want to say it, but the main reason why many people hat the city so much is because it is majority black. I am black and yes, I want to move out, but it is hardly the worst city in the nation. And not all the public schools here are bad. Just because a vast majority of them are majority black does not equal bad school. I went to majority white high schools because they try to reach you more and treat you better than some all black schools. But, a lot of these people hate te city because of that and if that is your only reason than some of you a re truely pathetic human beings.
