Seattle is not a paradise of race relations and there are not a whole lot of Black folk to begin with
The modern south has a lot going on for a larger Black population. Atlanta is the Black capital of the USA

Memphis, New Orleans and St Louis (I know, not really southern) are black as hell too.RaceBannon said:Seattle is not a paradise of race relations and there are not a whole lot of Black folk to begin with

White people in the south are generally worse to black people than white people in the west are. But black people in the south generally have a lot more black people around them than black people in the west do.
Different strokes for different black folks, but assuming life in the south is across the bored worse for blacks than life in the west is white privilege FS. -

Sorry, but you couldn't be further off. Atlanta is an island in a sea of shit for people of color in the south. The elected leaders of southern states (people like Jeff Sessions) STILL have abysmal records on civil rights issues compared to elected leaders in other parts of the country. Case in point, the new laws springing up over the past couple years designed to disenfranchise black voters are primarily concentrated in the south: https://nbcnews.com/news/nbcblk/new-voting-laws-south-could-affect-millions-african-americans-n639511
Want more facts/data? Happy to walk through how the south fled to the republican party after civil rights legislation passed by Kennedy and LBJ, and how those republicans have supported policies/judges/political candidates that have completely worked against the interests of African Americans. Believe me, I have a library to back this up. Another big factor was Barry Goldwater's opposition to the Civil Rights Act and his speech at the republican convention in 1964.
And nobody thinks Seattle is a "paradise" for race relations. African Americans will tell you that Seattle lacks diversity. But if you look at the civil rights record of Seattle/Olympia versus southern states, it's really no contest. They're worlds apart.

There's a lot more to life than politics though. -
Brilliant response. "There's a lot more to life than politics?" Uhhh....you mean like investments in public health and education? Literacy rates? Economic opportunities? Things like that?dnc said:

Not sure if you're aware, but "politics" (i.e., who you elect) has a significant impact in determining all of those things.

we need @Tequilla to weigh in about the merits and demerits of slavery in this thread

Please don't make this into a discussion about race in the south. Last time that happened BallzDeep immediately nuked the thread and put it well over its retard quota. No one wants that.

Remember?
I am actually not that far off. The south is not a paradise either but because of the larger Black population there are more islands that just Atlanta.
Most people are more concerned with today than yesterday. I think we can keep this here. I am certainly not arguing that we have a paradise anywhere yet.
