I live in what used to be a lily white community, a mill town in a rural area.
Portland, Oregon, is over 50 miles away with a sizeable black community. The last three years the number of black folks who have moved to my community has increaed from 0 to maybe a couple hundred.
My nephew has made acquaintances among the newcomers and discovered something interesting: black families are moving to rural areas because they fear for their family’s safety.
Imagine that.
