you know, existing while black in pittsburgh is like starving to death while in the supermarket aisle. okay, i didn't come up with that. a friends of mine who is a great writer and a pittsburgh native did. >> what section of town is this? >> we're on the south side. >> if you ever hear about a pittsburgh steeler getting arrested, it happened here. it always happens here. >> that's funny. >> damon young is a writer and a cofounder of one of my favorite websites -- very smart brothers. he was born and raised here. and most importantly, after he made it, he stayed here. >> i feel like pittsburgh is the market cause of america. in a sense that i think that we believe our own hype. just as america kind of believes its own hype, believes its lofty missions that were written by slave owners. and there's a reason why white people in pittsburgh seem to be thriving and black people are not.
