SOUTHERN LIFE’s Mobile bashing

What’s the deal with this guy, Jose, who lives in Sarasota, Florida, and loves to come to Mobile specifically to drive through the rundown areas of the city and declare to the world that this is Mobile? He posted one video three years ago and came back recently to make another Mobile-bashing video. His comments are racist as f**k, for example, he describes his drive-throughs as “African safari.” Yes he really did say that, see 35:29 in this video I’ve linked to. He keeps repeating that phrase several times in the next minute or so.

He picks what are the poorest areas of Mobile and films chiefly those areas. He also loves to bash on Alabama in general as there are several videos of other parts of Alabama that he targeted for maximum shock factor. And proceeds to make some of the most ignorant commentaries I’ve ever heard full of assumptions and bias and, yes, racism.

I’ve reported the video for hate speech and sharing on here for awareness of what’s he doing.

Edit: I see huge value in filming impoverished areas for awareness. I think it's absolutely necessary to help us see what it really looks like to help drive community action to make changes to improve the conditions. Many of us don't ever go into those areas. What rubbed me wrong were the incredibly ignorant and racist comments. If someone made the exact same video and titled it "What Mobile's poorest neighborhoods look like" or "Poverty in Mobile" or something like that, something neutral, and the commentary is neutral, informative, and sympathetic, I would not have a problem with the video.
