Interesting. This will probably irritate some of the old-timers who want the metro area to be segregated.

I think that all depends on if the count in the city is accurate or not, which I do not believe that it is. I hardly think that it is encouraging that Southfield went to 70% AA. Many areas have just started the phase of going from white to black. In that interim period the level of disimilarity increases......until it converts from white to black.

Sounds like this guy is living in fantasyland.

Thomas, a native Detroiter and president of the southern Oakland County branch of the NAACP, said she is pleased to see an influx of African-Americans and is as hopeful as Metzger.



"Our neighbors begin to see how important diversity is at home and at work," Thomas said. "We learn how to respect each other. It's not all 'kumbaya,' but we're getting there."

Meawhile, Bill O'Reilly is no longer the most extreme conservative commentator on Fox News.

He's still an extremely conservative commentator, just not the MOST extreme.

These list are soooo bias. Taking account of super cities as a whole, such as south central los angeles, that has NOOO whites in it at all.
