Roving Camera 8-23-18: Do you think Boston will ever shed its reputation as a racist city?

No, because racism lives inside this city. It’s infested. Now, with Donald Trump in office, it’s exposed even more.—Angela Favors, Entrepreneur, Roxbury
There’s a possibility, but we have so much work to do.—Eroy, Laborer, Roxbury
No. I don’t think it will. We as a people don’t stand up for our community. We’re losing our homes to gentrification and shelters.—Gregory, Disabled, Roxbury
Yes, because good always triumphs over evil. Boston has a lot of good people.—Jim, Carpenter, South End
Only if whites are fair in hiring practices and stop limiting the educational and professional pursuits of black people.—Leah Barrows, Artist, Roxbury
If we stick together as a city it will. Everybody needs to work together.—Norman Billingslea, Human Services, Roxbury
