Yep. I wouldn't be surprised either. The black population gets sparse once you head West of 35. Not only is this true for Texas, but that seems to be true for the US in general. But it's more noticeable in Texas. Not many black ppl in Odessa, San Angelo, El Paso, Amarillo, Lubbock, etc. But there's plenty of black ppl in Lufkin, Nagadoches, Port Arthur, Hearn, etc. Rule of thumb is, the greener, more humid, more pine tree filled part of the state has more black folks. The browner the state gets as you head West, the less black folks you'll see. But if they cut the state in half and made a state called "East Texas" that featured the Texas Triangle and the East Texas cities, that fictional "East Texas state" would probably be top 10(maybe even top 5) in Black percentage, while still maintaining it's #1 ranking in terms of raw number of blacks. Folks better put some respect on Texas name.The thing about the Texas numbers is Texas is so big. I'm willing to bet 90% of that 3.5 million live east of i35
Came in the thread to say this. My company is moving a good part of its back office from Chicago to the Phoenix area so I personally know 50 black people in their 30’s who took that opportunity to up transplant. I spent a few weeks training new hires out there and every black person I interacted w out there was from here. There was even a Chicago style chicken/hot dog spot opening in Tempe.Yeah, I moved out here to Arizona from Ohio, and I swear like 80% of the time I meet someone else black, they mention they're from somewhere in the Midwest. There's a LOT of folks from Chicago out here.
STOPWe still got a large population of AAs, especially in Harlem, Queens, and in the surrounding burbs in Long Island and Jersey.
Mississippi, Georgia, Louisiana, Alabama and South Carolina, all have a black population of at least 25%. All are linked geographically.
If there was any place, where black power (political, financial etc) could be concentrated, and the foundation for autonomy could be established, it would be there...
You might be on to something.Yeah 700,000 of NY's black population in combo is Black other compared to just over 100,000 in Georgia.STOP
I'm not denying that at all. I'm saying NY has large AA population + other black population to pad its stats. GA doesnt have that extra padding. There's a lot of black immigrants too in GA but nowhere near like that of NY
Haitians have the most collective political and economic clout in Florida, more than any other state. I know plenty of Haitians who are making it do, down in SoFla.I beeb saying this but ppl looked at me crazy.
Ehhh, black ppl are doing well economically in Texas. What sense would it make for them to up and move, to form some mythical superstate in the Southeast, when your numbers are healthy and growing in your current location? Texas is just fine for the black people that choose to live there.In three years, they will surpass cacs in terms of numbers.
Black people are wasting their numbers in Texas. We could use those numbers to boost the Atlantic coast states in terms of Blackness and control
Yeah 700,000 of NY's black population in combo is Black other compared to just over 100,000 in Georgia.
Didnt think it was even that high yet in GA but wouldn't be surprised. Them fukkas only rep come carnival timeThe West
I see why y’all pawg and paag ..you got no other choice

nikkas is deadass upset because Black people live in NY lol.We still got a large population of AAs, especially in Harlem, Queens, and in the surrounding burbs in Long Island and Jersey.

If blacc ppl in Atlanta are doing so well why do blacc ppl in Dallas make more money?Haha. Classic misdirection.
We’re focusing on DFW versus ATL, breh.
Where are your Black mayors? You all had Ron Kirk. Atlanta has had Black mayors for more than 40 years.
Where are your Black construction firms such as HJ Russell in Atlanta? You do know that Russell helped build a lot of modern Atlanta: Georgia Dome, Mercedes Benz Stadium, Hartsfield-Jackson, etc.
Where are your HBCUs? Paul Quinn is basically a high school, so that doesn’t count. Atlanta has Morehouse, Clark Atlanta, Spelman, etc.
Who are your culture shapers in DFW? I don’t even need to run down the list as it relates to Atlanta.
Did you all ever win an Olympic bid, orchestrated in large part by Black leadership?
I could go on and on.
The point is Black people in Atlanta are empowered and shape the city politically, culturally, etc.
That’s just reality.
DFW is a nice metro area, but please stop trying to make it into a Black Mecca. It’s not that.
Yup. East of i35 is only 1/4 of Texas landwise but im sure has over 3,000,000 blacc ppl aloneYep. I wouldn't be surprised either. The black population gets sparse once you head West of 35.
