[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This argument of "I don't want my kids to live in an all-white neighborhood" is a bit silly. You know you can just teach your kids to be a good person by exemple? Black people are not there as an experience for your child to have. You can afford to buy somewhere else, it doesn't have to be "all-white". My neighborhood here in VA is anything but all-white! There are literally kids from all over the world, what else do you want? I don't blame the gentrifiers for making the most profitable move, because the system is messed up. But don't make silly excuses. And don't expect others to be please by your choice.[/quote] + 1 Gentrifiers buy where they do because that's the best they can afford. Nothing wrong with that, given the way real estate works here. Just don't try to dress it up and defend what you're doing by saying you are "seeking diversity." Because we all know that if you could afford it, you'd in the mostly all white, super affluent, urban area too.[/quote]
