    Good to hear that Martin Luther King Jr.s work and faith and dream shines over the past racism of many places, including Tricities WA. Warms my heart and enjoyed watching you live out his dream. I love the guy in the background chiming in "it's four", had me laughing out loud". Posted from a white guy whose 12th birthday card was of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King jr. because my mom, a civil rights worker knew I admired him and looked up to him for the power of non-violence during such a hateful time and the power of love over hate back in the 60s. God bless you both as you enjoy his legacy!

    I’ve lived in Tri town for 30 years, and I was shocked to find out that you actually taught me more about my own hometown. lol! Like, I had no idea Dove Tail even existed! Thanks for the info and thank you for visiting. You seem like lovely people and you’re welcome back anytime with open arms. ❤

      Dovetail Joint is only a few years old. Great food when they have items that you enjoy. Their menu changes CONSTANTLY, so it's not great for creatures of habit like myself. Unfortunately, the last couple times I was there, nothing really piqued my interest.

    I'm white and moved here (Tricities) as an adult, but my huband and his family have lived here for a few generations and he told me of its history. I was really surprised, but agree it has definitely shaped the regions demographics.
    I was super curious to hear your perception of the area. I feel like your assessment was pretty fair. I hope these towns can continue to be more welcoming to people of all races.
    Thanks for your video! There were some places you mentioned that I hadn't heard of and will have to check out!

    @Malikforever I've been here a year now and to say that this area has long ways to go as far as it's diversity and treatment of those not white would be an accurate statement. We have faced longer wait times at restaurants, my partner has been called the n-word several times, while DoorDashing we've had close calls, and other incidents that will make this area not be home for us. On the flip side, I have made some good friends and there are good people here and I love my job so there is that. I wish you the best of luck.

    If you enjoy cloudy, windy and cold weather for 9 months out of the year, this is the place for you. There is not 300 days of sunshine here! Also the housing prices will price you out of the market unless you're a millionaire. Not worth it.
