Why y'all make these threads just to make backhanded disses to shyt on NYC...
It could've been a good thread but as always
One starring this shyt.
Stop bytching, this is not a diss thread...
No one call LA a Black Mecca.
The Black population in California is actually decreasing.
The black population is decreasing virtually everywhere outside the South, with the exception of a handful of cities. Black population is dropping much faster in some notable northern cities than it is in California cities...
Was wondering if this perception were skewed because we ourselves are black.....
But the fact that americans put a disproportionate amount of focus on sports and entertainment this is def true. Even in the middle of nowhere Idaho or whatever cacs are probably daily ingesting some aspect of black culture whether it's voluntary or not
I'm in Idaho, nah Black culture is virtually nonexistent here. The few times I've seen muhfukkas playing hip hop were white people or Mexicans. All these muhfukkas dress like they ready for a rodeo, they huge into country music and that type shyt out here...
Which is another point to make in this thread, there are many, many places where we aren't in large number, so our culture also isn't in those places. I do believe there is an indercounting in Black people in this country, particularly given the Grey area of leniency on people who are of African descent but don't identify as Black American; I think our real population is closer to 15% than 12%...
Regardless, I agree that our impact on American culture is outsized relative to our population, its directly visible in so many cities and places that we are neither the majority nor plurality, but have arguably the strongest impact on local culture; example in Charlotte we are neither the majority nor plurality, and there is certainly impact from other groups in Charlotte, bit it's a black ass city culturally...
That sounds about right. Atlanta has a little over 500K people or less and the black population is below 50%
230k sounds spot on
Metro Atlanta is what he's thinking of. I'll have the metro lists published up here some time this weekend...
