Richer minorities seen living in poorer neighborhoods - USATODAY.com

"White middle-class families have the option to live in a community that matches their own credentials," Logan says. "If you're African American and want to live with people like you in social class, you have to live in a community where you are in the minority."

This is stupid. You can't choose to live where you want because of what you look like. Why let injustices like this continue?

I think the article is saying that many wealthy blacks and Hispanics are choosing to live in poorer neighborhoods. I've lived in some pretty nice neighborhoods and for the most part the few blacks that live there were treated well but differently. The fact is "birds of feather flock together".

This is not necessarily a race thing. The same issue exists with poor whites that come into money. They move into wealthy upper class neighborhoods and find they just don't fit in.
 
They should move back to the neighborhood in which they grew up.

This constant lament about inequality is tiresome.

Federally protected civil rights, guaranteed equality in housing and employment, and Affirmative Action programs have been operating for half a century and many Blacks have taken notable advantage of it all. We even have a Black President.

So those who can't seem to climb the ladder should give some thought to the possibility it might because they simply don't belong where they would like to be -- or believe they deserve to be.
 
These people are a roadblock to human progress!
