This is an interesting list. However, I'm not quite sure if all of this can be accurately represented in such a multi-ethnic city such as NYC. We live in a predominantly black and latino area of the city. If we wanted, we could spend the day in a more white part of the city though the irony there is that we probably would play hell trying to afford the stuff there, so being there is either rare or the stuff you can do there is kind of limited.

However, the overarching class in NYC makes policies geared towards blacks and latinos such as Stop and Frisk, which is bullshit. I can SAY that it's bullshit and that it's wrong, but I can't actually understand how bad that actually is because I will NEVER have to deal with it.
