I wish i could give my experience tonight less than a 1 star. My parents are residents and live in Sugar Maple Ct and have been for a long while now since i was in High School and now 27. My father is well known in this community and helps care for his neighbors. My Mother also has friends in the neighborhood. I myself help my Father help others around the neighborhood. Things such had yard work,painting, animal care, and working with those how are older and whose movements have been restricted. I am saddened by the ignorance, absence of knowledge that there are indeed African American residents other than my family. I am aware of how African American race is perceived in the world. I also am aware that there have been incidents in the past, in the neighborhood dealing with theft and other negative events. Ive not only been advised about those things happening via email as well as letters but my parents know of incidents were things have been stolen from their neighbors. I often walk my dog or ride my bike at night. Tonight i happened to be riding my bike and apparently was called in on by a resident to security and was stopped and questioned as if i was doing something mischievous. It really is a shame for how long my family has resided at the residents to be looked at or viewed as if i do not belong. Lets flip this story just in case anyone wanted to play devils advocate. I saw a few people walking their dogs as i was riding my bike 3 to be exact.Would it be fair to call security to "check on things" after seeing each individual? I am asking for the community to become more aware of the residents and more mindful of the fact that there are residents here who are African American who do various things around the neighborhood and the first thought when anyone sees these situations happen is to call security this can turn into a much worse situation than a "review" . read more
