[quote=Anonymous]I disagree, and you are missing the point. At this point there's nothing external that's driving issues of concentrated multigenerational poverty other than the same economic issues facing all Americans. Practices like redlining which created segregated ghettoes in the past are now illegal, and many people are escaping those neighborhoods, and they are giving way to gentrification. Many neighborhoods around DC are changing fast. But the schools are still lagging behind. And it's stubborn blindness to that truth that I'm talking about. You on the other hand seem to be focused on catering to the status quo - which is what continues the cycle of concentrated multigenerational poverty as opposed to disrupting it.[/quote]
