Reading reddit in the mid Atlantic has got me thinking about this one. Seems like conflicts are on the rise.

Baltimore and Washington DC. Been living in the region now for a few years and there are constantly threads about black teenagers verbally or physically assaulting white people.

Boston is notorious for racial disharmony. Buffalo is, too...

New York's multiculturalism somewhat hides some of its intolerance between races...

Really, the East Coast is full of areas with notable racial tensions. As a native of Metro Washington (Northern Virginia), however, I don't think it has so much racial issues as some other cities out here, particularly Baltimore, Buffalo, and Boston...

The large Southeast cities, on the whole, are much more tolerant than the large Northeast cities. Not as culturally diverse, mind you, but not as racially divisive. My experience, and I've been everywhere on East Coast besides Florida, Mass, NH, Vermont, and Maine...

Baltimore easily, those "black teens" you're referring to are such a small segment of the population in DC. There is not much "tension" throughout the city maybe just a little bit of envy at best.

Well given the recent riots I would say Baltimore. I know in New York there are tensions between African-Americans and Caribbean blacks.

Total BS, West Indian kids born in NY fully assimilate into AA culture for the most part. There is no tension.

SMH......no the black teenagers in DC do not go around assaulting white people because they are white. They assult anyone they think they can pick on. I know two black guys who have been assaulted by "these groups of teens" you are talking about....and as someone else said the teens who go around assaulting innocent civilians(both black and white) only represent a small proportion of black teenagers in DC.

Who said we were talking only about children or west indians born in New York? I was thinking more West Indians born in the Caribbean who moved to the U.S. If you disagree that's totally cool.
