Why whites don’t understand black segregation
wp ^ | 11/21/14 | keating

Posted on 11/23/2014 4:41:21 PM PST by knak

Over the past 20 years, whites and blacks have experienced opposite trends in segregation. Asians, Hispanics and blacks are moving into historically white neighborhoods. Vastly fewer whites live surrounded by just other white people. Whites look around and see multi-ethnic neighbors. They perceive expanded opportunity and integration because that is what they see. And they think everyone else is experiencing the same things.

But a Washington Post analysis of Census data shows that the experience in historically African American neighborhoods of major cities has been far different, as they have remained heavily isolated. Whites, Asians and Hispanics are not moving into those neighborhoods, and blacks who remain there experience persistent segregation.

Indeed, nearly all-white neighborhoods in big cities are now virtually extinct. Nearly all-black neighborhoods, on the other hand, are still commonplace.

Plenty of blacks here where I live. Sknuks, buzzards, cattle, crows, etc.

Even more in town, pop of about 15k, prob 6k are black. Of course, 5.5k are guests of TDCJ, but hey, they're still there!

All the kids are moving to Crown Heights and Bushwick. Bed-Stuy is next. Can Brownsville be far behind?

Whites are coming in and fixing up dilapidated properties and taking some pride in what they own, as opposed to the entitled section 8 renters that don’t give a crap about anything.

The all white leftist city council bemoans this “gentrification,” even though it brings in more money to the city coffers.

Would any of us riot if a white 300 pound thief was killed by a cop - and blood evidence showed the thief had been beating the cop?

Would George Bush - upon hearing some 18 year old WHITE thug (who had just robbed a store and attacked a police officer) was shot - would Bush drop everything and rush back to the White House to talk with his AG? BECAUSE the thug was WHITE? It would NEVER HAPPEN.

Furgerson's not Selma.

It's not the Freedom Summer of '64. It's not anything glorious or worth fighting for... it's a common criminal who got into a fight with a police officer and was shot. Period.

...and being called a racist won’t shame me into a thing. I don’t even hear it anymore...

Yep, for sure. Like listening to a 12 year old screaming "You're mean!" and "I hate you!" when he's told to behave.

I am now fully post-racial sympathy. They've lied and injured and stolen from others for decades. They do not want truth or morality or justice or responsibility, only whatever they can get however they can get it, the law be damned. They do not want integration - they want to be 'special' because of a past that none of us or our parents had anything to do with. They have wasted golden opportunity for decades because of their childish pity party. They have become a rotten thing in our stew.

Why does a people do this to themselves?

The only way to even have a shot of escaping it (and nothing is 100% once the social engineers have you in their sights, as they do any white person they can find) is to live in a place remote enough, isolated enough, or small enough to not have convenient “social services” nearby (gibme centers), or public transportation (one of the reasons, IMO, that the left pushes public transportation and urban living so vehemently). And even that's no guarantee, as the small town of Lewiston Maine found out when immigrant Somalis based in Georgia targeted the town for its generous social services (generous because the town of retirees didn't utilise them very much). Once the Somalis established a beachhead, more came, and when the “social services” (gibmes) ran out, they sued the mayor to make him get federal funding for more (and for the accompanying rise in bureaucracy). As you might surmise, the crime rate has risen, and the sanitation level has dropped.

Indeed. The unwilling host must not be allowed to escape the leeches. Plus, whites must never be allowed to congregate together without the watchful eye of blacks upon them, to make sure they don’t practice that magic juju which makes white communities more safe, secure, and clean, comparatively and generally speaking, to black ones.

It would be amusing, if it weren't so damned hypocritical and aggravating, to hear blacks b*tch about “historically black neighborhoods” which have been black for maybe 30-40 years, but were historically white for a hundred years before that. But the “historically black” neighborhoods must be preserved in all their ghetto-ness, while historically white neighborhoods which had well-kept traditional architecture or other significant features, can just go to hell, apparently.

And there you make point which a lot of whites don’t recognise or refuse to recognise-the “good black family” moves in, but in their trail comes the baby daddy niece, the gangsta cousin, etc. Or even the primary family’s children.

There was a comparison done of Prince George’s Co (majority black middle/upper middle class) and a majority white, lower socio-economic status, more rural are. The majority black, higher ses area had higher drop-out rates, higher teen crime rates, and lower academic scores than the lower ses majority white area. This was so even when adjusted for single parent/two-parent families.

We don't even riot over the elderly woman who made it 101 years old, only to be raped and murdered by a black "teen", who smiled big for the news cameras in court today and thanked them for making him into a celebrity. In the past year alone, I can't remember how many reports I've read of elderly whites women being raped and often murdered by black "teens", but it's been a lot.

Can you imagine managing to live to 101 years old, only to be taken out that way by some black savage? Me either, but it makes my blood boil, and even more that the animal is completely without remorse. He would have to be, what kind of animal would do such a thing in the first place? I really hope he burns in hell.

The MSM doesn't care when elderly white women are raped and murdered by black teens either... Maybe journalists are afraid they'd be called racist if they objected. It's so strange.

Yes I saw a story about the Guillani’s interview, one of those trouble makers called Guillani a white supremacist which I guess is the new talking point since someone else got called that a couple days ago while debating the illegal amnesty. I guess they have finally realized the racist label is worn out.

“Whites, Asians and Hispanics are not moving into those neighborhoods”

Blacks aren’t embarrassed by this?

And if they did move in, the blacks would whine about gentrification.

Well said. ITA with everything you wrote especially public transportation and the role it plays.

More and more people are not caring about being labeled racist or any other derogatory term. I know I no longer care.

So you want them to act white? That’s what their overseers would say.

Right there is the problem. They have been brainwashed that hoes, drugs and violence is THEIR culture, and since they cannot except that those things are bad, they have to reject Western culture entirely. Cognitive Dissonance.

When the South lost the War Between the States, masses of black people were freed. And a LOT of them became sharecroppers on their old master's land for them or new masters. Some people do not want the responsibility that comes with being your own master; because then...you have to take responsibility if your life fails. Applied helplessness...it makes people vote Democrat.
