the part about shitting in the bushes or what?

Well, they did shit in the bushes..

the community had to open an "apartment school" to explain how a modern apartment works, and how to live a life in the modern society.

Nothing racist about it, statement of facts.

And the part about them shitting in the bushes was a major issue as the people with kids wanted the kids to be able to play in the park without running into shit behind every other tree...
