Speak for yourself Ray. I’m as white as they come and I’ve had roommates from many backgrounds... Sri-lanka, Pakistan, Jewish, German, etc. I value all of them.
Not everybody thinks like you. In fact, I believe your way of thinking is a dying breed.
You do? Then why does white flight still happen in this country? It happened in the area I was born in, in the area I grew up in, and in the area I live in now.
My sister who is very religious recently sold her house here and moved to an all white area. She will never admit to the real reason why, she just makes up all kinds of phony excuses. First she claimed she needed a different house because of the stairs to the bedrooms. She later claimed that she couldn't do yard work or house repairs any longer and needed to be somewhere in a development where that's all taken care of for you.
Until this day she will never admit why she really moved from the house she and her ex-husband designed on their own, built by my father, and the home where she raised her family. Her new house has stairways going to bedrooms upstairs, she still has to do yard work albeit some is taken care of by the homeowners association, and still has to take care of the repairs on the inside of the unit. In fact, I just fixed her toilet a few weeks ago.
She no longer felt safe in her home. That's as close to a real reason that she ever gave me for why she moved. And compared to where she lives now, that house was ten times what this one is. My father built that house with the best quality material, and the best workman ship you could possibly get.
