I feel drawn to Anacostia because I spent my first decade of life there until my family bought a house and moved to the suburbs, not white flight, but the American dream. Where we lived was technically not Anacostia, but Far Southeast, near Wheeler Road. There were tons of garden apartment houses then (still are, but some have been torn down) inhabited by young Jewish professionals, in DC to work for the federal government in the 50s. WHen they started having kids, it was time to move out, to Silver Spring, Wheaton, White Oak and Oxon Hill. My dentist and pediatrician were in downtown Anacostia. My first summer job, volunteering for Head Start as a teenager, was also in AnacostiaTobyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14686829579571972479noreply@blogger.com
