People of means should be forced to stay in a decaying area to prove that they are liberal. I think that is what this writer is trying to say.
It sounds as if the case is being made, that you are racist if you participate in “white flight” and move out of an area which is going downhill.
But they don’t mention that decent black folks also move away from bad neighborhoods if they can.
