But are black professionals moving into these area like that? I could be wrong, but my impression is no.
Hence why I said the question should be: why do so few black people gentrify?

Please explain how what I said is coonish.
Really want to hear this.
Also, it is worth mentioning that no one has disagreed and said that black professionals are actually moving into these areas in significant numbers. -
@2stepz_ahead make a thread about the quickest way to make 100k and lets throw some of these home-buying ideas in there.

I am not even going to read. White folks are liars and particularly those who are in pursuit of new business opportunities. I believe with all my might that White folks have been and will always be behind the violence in our neighborhoods. With the objective being to devalue Black Neighborhoods to drive down property values which discouraging us from buying in these neighborhoods and keep Blacks constantly moving while Whites walk in and setup stable neighborhoods backed by city and state.
They will keep selling us a narrative to hate ourselves and each other. Instead of encouraging Blacks to own these neighborhoods they encourage us to get out only to go some where else and rent.
Most, if not all, black gangs are affliated in some way with white crime lords. Sad, disturbing, but in the history it seems true. Thus, your statement is valid Kwan. The guns, the drugs, and sometimes the hits made on other gangs are approved of/communicated to those crime lords. I''ll look for more research to back it, but basically it's been going on since the 1950s. Blacks didn't bring guns, ? or heroine into our community. When we collectively tried to get it out of our community we were attacked by the government (Black Panthers). It was never by accident and is documented in FBI files to bring drugs into the black community.

"In the 1950s when black Policy was rubbed out by Sam Giancana’s men who, in turn, supplied the black community with Heroin which destroyed the community in a devastating way. This breakdown of the black community gave rise to violent street gangs like the Black P Stones, Gangster Disciples and Vice Lords that took the Heroin trade to a whole other level. There could have been a great possibility that the mob would have stayed out of the Policy racket if Chicago continued to support the racket like they did in the 1920s as they told Al Capone to lay off Policy, this time for some reason it slipped through the cracks. Part of the reason is because the Outfit was feeling the heat from law enforcement breathing down their necks after the Hollywood shakedown scandals that put Paul “The Waiter” Ricca behind bars and restricted the Outfit from many of their known money making schemes; therefore, it was time to move in on something new that the government decided to no longer pursue in the early 1940s, black Policy." -

And fixing the whole going take a lot more than just a few good ? . ? pointing out what's being done ain't necessarily complaining. 1st step is always information and we can't move anywhere w/o knowing what's being done, why, and then how to fix it

Its cool that you givin this type of information. And there are people who understand this and other things. Then there are those who for whatever reason dont want to...who knows. At least peep game. Why does this type of thing make some angry? who knows. Honestly man I just figure this aint the place for too much real game and such. Like on one hand people coming in and driving up property values-doesnt take a genius to see there is actually something good in that on multiple fronts. Like that isnt the worst thing. Progress is going to be made regardless if some people on here wanna accept it or not. At the same time, I get the people getting displaced part too. It can be a ? game.
But regarding the people you are addressing on here,cant expect them to be other than what they are or want to portray to be.
