The Regal, I remember when we was little, my mom used to take us to the Regal. They had the best hot dogs, the best popcorn, but they had a whole lot of mice and rats.

You went down there to watch movies, but you always had to put your feet up in the chair. But we always had a good time, and I wish they would do something with the Regal, because that'd be good for the community.

I really know a lot about the Neighborhood Houses. I'm from downtown, and I've been coming to the Neighborhood Houses for like over 20 years for food and different programs and stuff at the Neighborhood Houses. This is a good program that helps the Black community, helps us with groceries when we don't have any money, [or] bus fare to go to work. They have a lot of different good programs for the black people in the Black community. They bought the park so our kids can still play. I know a lot about the neighborhood.
