And their response is that it was racist for the whites to leave those areas.
Of course if gentrification of run down areas these folks have let decay occurs, and white folks are persuaded to come back, thats racist too.

Newark NJ tried a “European re-colonization effort” (by attracting yuppies), but it failed; there is no way to hide the goal (getting lighter-skinned people to pay bills for darker-skinned people). Asbury Park tried years ago to draw homosexual yuppies, but it fell apart when they realized their housing would be mere blocks from hives of super-predators (who wouldn’t be brought to heel).
