single-family zoning, a classification that has long perpetuated segregation

This seems like a non-sequitur -- unless the journalist is trying to express the opinion that blacks are too stupid or too lazy to ever acquire ownership of a single-family house. Personally, I have see many smart hard-working blacks who bought lovely homes in fine neighborhoods. But perhaps the journalist is unaware that this happens, and somehow finds the concept of single-family homes to be inherently racist.

It is called economic flight. Who wants to live next to a multi group (not family) occupied drug infested gangster rap blaring crap hole when they have the means and smarts to move to a main stream family values neighborhood with access to decent schools.

Ditto. There’s a minority couple living next door to me and I’m jealous of how well kept their home and yard is. Honest, I’m trying to keep mine up better but... They also have several teenage kids to help with the chores. Hmm, maybe I can hire/lure them away to work on my yard! ;-)

Bizarre. I now live in Jacksonville, Florida - which has a large black middle class and even wealthy population, and a lot of “mixed marriages” as a result, because people marry people who have the same values and goals. And one of those is owning a house.

But the left has a terrible view of black Americans, ranging from condescending to vicious.
