Or NJ; we only outlawed slavery fifteen years before the Civil War, and are still very segregated. Black-on-white crime results when raiders leave the welfare hatcheries on raids; left to their own devices they can only rob & kill each other.
I drove through Paterson, NJ several years ago and remarked to the person with me that it appeared to be a very affluent city as there were so many young, black men sitting around with nothing to do except contemplate their next move in the stock market.

Bergen County developed as the largest slaveholding county in the state,[1] in part because many slaves were used as laborers in its ports and cities. After the Revolutionary War, many northern states rapidly passed laws to abolish slavery, but New Jersey did not pass abolish it until 1804, and then in a process of gradual emancipation similar to that of New York. But, in New Jersey, some slaves were held as late as 1865. (In New York, they were all freed by 1827.) The law made African Americans free at birth, but it required children (born to slave mothers), to serve lengthy apprenticeships as a type of indentured servant until early adulthood for the masters of their slave mothers. New Jersey was the last of the Northern states to abolish slavery completely. The last 16 slaves in New Jersey were freed in 1865 by the Thirteenth Amendment.[2]
