Inner cities in urban areas need end cycle of poverty and violence they need better family structures, value education more, take pride of community, more job opportunities It not race problem. It poverty and cycle of broken families, lack of opportunities, thug culture. It won't stop anytime soon politicians will give out freebies so they can have their vote during election time. The cycle go from generation to and generation. If someone who grow up without any father or mother in crime infested neighborhood their strong chance the streets might get to them surrounded by negative so feel peer pressure. Everyone can be change around their life but the neighborhoods they live is holding them back with negative activity all around.

Most cities whether it's majority White or minority already vote Dem... its an urban vs rural vote for the most part and minorities didn't come out in droves to vote against Trump either so come again?

None the less it's incorrect put down a city because of its majority race. Would that mean that once the Black or Hispanic population crosses the 50% Mark we can start saying I don't want to live in XX because it's so "Black" or "Spanish"?

How do you expect a group of people to catch up on 400 years of oppression in ~40 years?

Once Civil Rights were granted it was only a decade until Neoliberalist policy took hold. Now everyone is screwed.

Society has created and perpetuated that situation. Social mobility is nearly impossible.

How else are you supposed to read the below unless you meant you want more white majority cities like we need more Trump supporters? Most cities regardless of race vote Dem...

People have a problem with a city being majority white lol just shows the mindsets in America. Who the hell cares? Not every city has to be an Oakland or a Jersey City.

Having cities being majority-white, majority-black, majority-Hispanic, or majority-Asian is what brings diversity in the US. Having every city be melting pots with evenly proportioned demographics - not only is it highly unrealistic, it isn't actually as "diverse" as people think; it creates conformity. Ironic, I know.
