apparently "As a child of the 50s and growing up the 60s. The source of this term is from the Children's TV show ... ROMPER ROOM. There were good and bad "DOO-BEE". You were a good DOO-BEE if you did what your mother told you. Picked up your room, cleaned your plate, etc.
In college we passed around the joint.. but you did not get to smoke unless you were a good DOO-BEE."
then they added - age (process of, outcome of) in the 70's, but the term "doobie" started in mid 60's, by white people living in suburbs and college.
I actually found that "spliff" is West Indie term that was a slang of a Jamican term.

no, it's still like that. Fox theater and near Midtown, Peachtree st has $1 + penthouse and condos, and next street over, you have all of the people living off of government checks.
Only thing that's changed is the ratio of black people living in those $1+ condos vs ratio of white people living off of government checks. They're all equally rich and poor at the same time.
I guess all of the poor people live in South of Atlanta and most of the rich people live in North of Atlanta. But it's spotty outside 285 loop, but inside, it's pretty straight.
Atlanta is known for its wealthy black neighborhoods.
