Buffalo's East Side and Black youth still struggling one year after shooting.

TL;DR Summary
A year after a mass shooting at a grocery store on Buffalo's East Side, the predominantly Black neighborhood is still struggling with gun violence, underfunded schooling, a lack of grocery options, poor transportation, and joblessness. Despite promises of investment and millions of dollars in funding, community members say little has changed and that the attention from charitable organizations and people disappeared once the cameras left. Advocates say that the root of the problem is racism, which has historically under-resourced and redlined the East Side, making it one of the most segregated areas in the country.
