If black is all you are then I guess you are losing ground.

How are blacks doing in ultra liberal, no one voted for Trump San Francisco?

The Loneliness of Being Black in San Francisco

The decline has been steady and noticeable. One of seven residents was black in 1970. Today, it is nearly one of 20, with most of the city’s 46,000 blacks living in public housing.

And what progress are they referring to? The increased shootings and gangs; more families on welfare and food stamps; poor education in the inner cities or??? Doesn’t seem like that money has had much of a return on investment.

“African-Americans have been replaced by illegal Mexicans. “
I have a friend who works for a company that has hired a few illegals. He says they do 3 times the work of the ghetto Blacks from the area.

Another spokesman for the Perpetual Victim Party. The race card sure gets tiresome.

Trump hasn't been president very long so if the African-American community is losing ground that's something that started before he took office.

The black political leaders didn't say the African-American community was losing ground. They said "we" (the black political leaders) are losing ground. Sometimes politicians tell the truth by mistake.

Yup, I work in San Francisco, live a bit south, and yeah, I’ve seen it happen over the last 20-30 years. It’s actually pretty sad that the majority of blacks here are either living in public housing or homeless. We’re one step removed from the animals at the zoo at this point.

"Black lawmakers and political leaders in California warned Wednesday that President Donald Trump’s proposed federal budget cuts threaten to upend decades of progress in the African-American community on issues ranging from voting rights to education."

Not to mention progress in soaring public school illiteracy rates, gang membership, single mother "families", welfare dependency, food stamps, rampant drug use and record homicide rates. This cannot stand!

Same here in NJ; they were the primary target of the “replacement Americans”. Now they’re trafficking Asians here to replace the white Americans in the remaining white-collar work.

Obama and the Democrats tried to force whites into the same existence (100% government dependence); that is why Trump won.

This is just early campaigning for the 2018 mid-terms, to prevent the unreported story from 2016 from being repeated: The high number of blacks who didn’t vote for Hillary Clinton. They definitely cost her the election.
