[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Um, historic racism? [/quote] Um, read a book? This has nothing to do with race. It has to do with class. Those with means have always wanted to separate themselves from those without means.[/quote] Except in DC it's about both. Redlining barred people of color from buying homes in certain parts of the city to people of color, even if they had the means. The practice persisted into the 1970s. [/quote] Many immigrants arrived after the 70s with zero money and they are doing well. Stop using the past as an excuse for the present.[/quote]
