That's old news. We were well past the crack era when gentrification of the cities started.
Again, a pincer formation. Bill Clinton's empowerment zones (1994) started eroding what was left of black business. Obama's poorly executed TARP eroded what was left: home ownership. Once a community is tripped of its economic base, it's a dead man walking.

Just cus we passed the era dont mean shyt changed.
We passed the days when banks were openly redlining, it still never stopped it from happening
This aint fantasy land where if a practice that was prevailant in the past, it stayed in the past.

1. Your game aint up to par, you don't know shyt about the North/South split nor none of the polictiking going on. You from New York, a completely different culture and get down.You don't know about the CDC Shoe riots or about how northern mexicans and blacks got busy against the southern mexicans. How that led to a long standing alliance and shyt up north that continues to this day.
I don't care about none of that shyt. This is what I care about.
▛ Black Californians are overrepresented in the homeless population. Twenty percent of homeless adults identify Black as their sole racial identity and 6% as one of their identities. Thus, 26% identify Black as, compared to 7% in the overall California population.
▛ A higher proportion of Black Californians experiencing homelessness are cis-gender men, compared to other racial groups. Three quarters of Black Californians are cis-gender men, compared to 64% of white Californians and 68% of those from other racial groups.
▛ Black individuals reported a lower lifetime prevalence of regular substance use than those from other racial groups experiencing homelessness. Over half (58%) reported using illicit drugs regularly at some point in their lifetime; 74% of white and 65% of those from other races did so.
▛ Black individuals had a higher prevalence of severe mental health symptoms and problems than members of other racial groups. They had a higher prevalence of hallucinations, suicide attempts, and mental health hospitalizations.
▛ More than three quarters (79%) of Black Californians experiencing homelessness entered homelessness from housing. Nearly half (46%) entered from a non-leaseholding housing situation, living without the legal protections of a lease agreement. One in three (33%) were leaseholders in their last housing.
▛ Black Californians had extremely low incomes prior to homelessness. Among those who entered from a leaseholding arrangement, the median monthly household income in the six months prior to homelessness was $1200, lower than incomes from other racial groups experiencing homelessness. Among non-leaseholding Black Califorians, the median monthly household income in the same period was $960.
▛ Economic precarity preceded homelessness. Among Black Californians, leaseholders’ median monthly housing costs were $675–more than half of the median monthly household income. While a large proportion of non-leaseholders (45%) didn’t contribute to rent, those who did were cost burdened. Black participants discussed work and income fluctuations impacting their ability to keep up with housing costs.
▛ Anti-Black discrimination disrupted housing stability for Black Californians experiencing homelessness. Some Black participants discussed having left their last housing situation due to discrimination. For others, discrimination disrupted employment, resulting in loss of income and inability to keep up with housing costs.
Thus, straight black men are VASTLY over represented in CA's homeless population, not due to drug use, but due to mental instability caused by economic discrimination.
Anything else?

im well aware the game has been updated and flipped, but old practices still continue on top of all that
theres a difference between being priced out of the market due to being unable to afford to live there and acting as if the new migrant group forced its previous residents out. at least to me it is. one is my grandparents retiring to oregon and latino families in droves buying their houses to shift the demographic, and the idea that latinos somehow muscled them out of their homes. to me its the way the narrative is directed as if black people leaving the city is somehow akin to the trail of tears for socal black people. i agree with what your point, i just dont respect the narrative that other groups have run with that socal black people were punked out of the city
and i agree about the firebombing. but thats how a lot of those cowards roll. to attack women, children, and the elderly was completely seen as sucker shyt. but thats how some of them roll. when my mom, aunt and younger cousin were getting their taxes done a few years back 4 of them rolled up on them with guns. if my older cousin wasnt there they probably wouldnt have been here. its crazy to think. when the "enemies" were soft targets they felt bold, but one black man showing up had them running back to their van
This useless oaf got two Mexicans in front him repeatedly calling a Black man the N-word and all he does is laugh. I don’t expect him to physically attack them but at the very least check them on some “ayo chill with that word
ya'll need to tell them they can't say the N word the same way they tell other non black people and non FBA black people on here
I saw a Mexican comedian on YT say he's a N word to the cops too, so they could say it.
Looks like eveyrbody is not on code

and guess who caused all of that shyt
Notice the skin tone?
The same skintone as Nury Martinez. I'm sure she accomplished many good things for those wm, as did the firebombers. As did the many, many Mexican businesses that refuse to hire bp. All working together toward the same goal, getting bp tf out of Cali, and it's working too.
I'm not gon insult you or call you out your name, but frfr, black people ain't really trynna hear that shyt rn. My heart breaks for all those homeless bm, both there, and here in my city, and all areas in between and yours should too.
nikkas entire personalities is about being exotic to the negro and white around them cacs. we are dealing with cowards with long rap sheets of cowardly behavior.
They don't understand the economic aspect to all of this, or they don't care because it does not affect them. I have no clue which one it is. What I do know is that there are plenty of studies on this that objectively makes clear the issues, but they prefer to argue in the subjective so they don't have to face the truth and stay in the narrative of the bubble that they feel comfortable.
