Black population deserting S.F., study says
The white liberal paradise that is San Francisco is driving out the few remaining black residents.
Of course, I'm not surprised. White liberals have never been interested in living among the lower classes--only patronizing them and tagging them as "victims" of racism. In this case, it's turned out to be true. Oh, the irony.
African Americans are leaving San Francisco because of substandard schools, a lack of affordable housing and the dearth of jobs and black culture, according to a report by a committee looking into the exodus.
The African American Out-migration Task Force, put together by the mayor's office last year to figure out what can be done to preserve the city's remaining black population and cultivate new residents, presented its findings at a public hearing Thursday called by Supervisor Chris Daly. San Francisco's black population has
dropped faster than that of any other large U.S. city's. It went from 13.4 percent in 1970 to an estimated 6.5 percent in 2005, according to the census. Nationally, African Americans make up 12.1 percent of the population.
Of course, I'm not surprised. White liberals have never been interested in living among the lower classes--only patronizing them and tagging them as "victims" of racism. In this case, it's turned out to be true. Oh, the irony.
