I lived in Oakland in 99 before it was hip and there were a lot of black people. Now their are white hipsters paying $2500-3000 for the same 2 bed apt that I was paying $800 for

In this era of White Return the same is happening here to those areas of young mostly Black folk to mingle with that the OP is searching for. Just about any area that can be called majority Black is only that way because the seniors who bought in during White Flight are only now just starting to die off.

One of those seeking white validation. That's very common in SoCal.

What the heck is white validation? People (all people, including whites) like, love or dislike others and unless they are irrational and use race as a mechanism to determine which ones to treat in a particular way, never even give crap like that a second thought. Unless, of course, they are race obsessed and racist themselves.

They usually go out of their way to trash blacks because they think it would make whites happy. When they get their wake up call, then they want to run to blacks.

I want to let you in on a little secret. Whites I know (granted, I don't know all of them) really do not hate blacks. In fact, the white folks I know really wish that blacks would hurry up and become much more successful as a whole and would share their self-reliance attitude. When white people do discuss black areas (yes, I have heard some racist things said in my day but not usually), people generally bemoan the state of those bad black areas in relation to crime, poverty, hopelessness etc. As for middle class blacks and the areas they live in, I have never heard one person say anything bad! EVER!

Hey!

Let's focus on the OP's question. If you don't have any places to recommend, then don't say anything. Stop Hijacking the thread!!!!!!!

And if the only place you can recommend is Roscoe's, then you don't belong on this thread either LMAO.
