This is what you call an initiative out of appreciation and honor for the Bedford-Stuyvesant Volunteer Ambulance Corps. I am truly thankful, very fortunate and a better person as a result of this experience. It is an opportunity to have an opportunity jump in front of you- bith slap you across the face and say WAKE UP! I have been introduced to the real inner-fabrique of what humanity is all about. When you hear of Bed-Stuy- you think of the worst inner city community on the globe- as it undeniably is; in regards to the per block capita of poverty, drugs, crime, violence, homicides etc... The Bed Stuy Vollies are not just an ambulance corp. they are the first minority run ambulance corps in America, and also the most reliable.
The organization has recieved countless awards, praises, and recognition on the national level- which has dwindled as has the fashionable funding resulting from.
Currently, now that BSVAC has at the least added to the patriarchy within the community- do or die in Bed Stuy!" let alonoe-irrespectively laying the foundation to the gentrification process (I don't see it yet) to the mass development in downtown brooklyn, (there are no signs of gentrification). the city has plans for auctioning off the lot. After all- if the property value goes up- the productivity of 'city' ambulances will go up as well.
