As our first Voices of NYC submission, we are republishing an Op-Ed that originally appeared on BrooklynBuzz.com. The article was submitted by a Bedford-Stuyvesant homeowner and reflects the author's personal views and opinions. Voices of NYC welcomes a wide range of perspectives and encourages respectful discussion on issues important to New York City residents.
