minus-squarewtypstanaccount04 [he/him]hexbear23·9 months ago Reminder that Flint got huge amounts of press coverage and international outrage because it was white America Are you kidding? 56% of people in Flint are black, it's a famously black city! https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/flintcitymichigan link
