im in denial??? how am i in denial if i can take you to a thread that shows 20+ NICE BLACK AREAS IN ONLY ONE POST IN over 20 - 30 page thread.
are you mad that i am more educated then you and don't listen to the media to believe every black are and every black area in every major city is bad??
no my friend your in denial and are not educated what so ever which is why you probably wont take my advice and search for the nice black areas thread on city data.
Why does it seem that in every major city (of course with a significant black population) in America the worst neighborhoods in that city are the predominately black ones? I'm black myself and this always bothered me...
I don't believe that you are actually black. I've seen some of your other posts. Honestly, I would guess that you are a white woman.
Pretty much. While there are a few exceptions (Cascade in Atlanta, Country Club Hills, IL, Prince Georges County MD, etc.) the vast majority black neighborhoods are pretty ghetto and have high crime rates. It's not politically correct to say it, but it's the truth.
However, plenty of middle-class integrated cities and neighborhoods are safe.
As to the why? Sociologists have tried to answer that question for years. I think it's a combination of social, cultural and economic factors.
sorry buddy i know theirs a ghetto crisis in the black community but your comment is probably just as dumb as you sound.
, you dont even know every black area in the country and probably have not visited the majority of the country in your life.
my bet is you watch the news 24/7, you base all your assumptions of media(American media at worst), and you have never done any type of research to see if these generalizations are true.

although I agree with you and I hate correcting people's grammar because I make tons of mistakes too, but it was just funny reading a sentence about you having more education than him, and in that sentence you made a whammy.
Its more education than him, not then him. Then him means he comes next.

Historical factors are also a big part of this. My theory is that the social, cultural, and economic factors have been shaped by history.

education is the key and if these blogger really refuses to slow down his generalizations then i think he is indeed a non colored man.
I agree that the history of economical disparity plays a factor in most cities, but that amounts to the black neighborhoods being more poor and more rundown, but I would not go as far as to say they are the worse neighborhoods, well at least not for this city

my education stays in school. i honestly don't have time to sit in a forum and watch how i write. i am 20 years old and grammar on a forum is the last time that worries me unless it can get me a in fracture
but you are acting very typical "so called black man" so typical that you didnt look up on what i wrote you to do but quickly came to comment on my grammar.
its been all opinion so far, no one has laid down any facts yet.
