Then post silly opinions that stem from their racial biases? For example:
In Baltimore in 1910, a black Yale law school graduate purchased a home in a previously all-white neighborhood. The Baltimore city government reacted by adopting a residential segregation ordinance, restricting African Americans to designated blocks. Explaining the policy, Baltimore’s mayor proclaimed, “Blacks should be quarantined in isolated slums in order to reduce the incidence of civil disturbance, to prevent the spread of communicable disease into the nearby White neighborhoods, and to protect property values among the White majority.”
"Thus began a century of federal, state, and local policies to quarantine Baltimore’s black population in isolated slums—policies that continue to the present day, as federal housing subsidy policies still disproportionately direct low-income black families to segregated neighborhoods and away from middle class suburbs."
This article was written in 2015. Everybody here was alive at that time and as the article states the policies that were started in 1910 were still being implemented.
"When the Kerner Commission blamed “white society” and “white institutions,” it employed euphemisms to avoid naming the culprits everyone knew at the time. It was not a vague white society that created ghettos but government—federal, state, and local—that employed explicitly racial laws, policies, and regulations to ensure that black Americans would live impoverished, and separately from whites. Baltimore’s ghetto was not created by private discrimination, income differences, personal preferences, or demographic trends, but by purposeful action of government in violation of the Fifth, Thirteenth, and Fourteenth Amendments. These constitutional violations have never been remedied..."
From Ferguson to Baltimore: The Fruits of Government-Sponsored Segregation
These are the facts. Not the stupid garbage we see here posted by whites talking about children out of wedlock, refusing to be motivated, unwillingness to be educated, and all the trash right-wing whites here post. These things were done BY WHITES IN AUTHORITY. So it is correct to blame whites for problems that exist in black communities because they created them.
