Name one single predominately BLACK neighborhood in America that hasn't been turned to "drug infested crack house sh*t holes".

Well, you have Prince George's County in Maryland. There's Shaker Heights, Ohio (a suburb of Cleveland). There's Kessler Park (in Dallas) and Cedar Hill in Texas (suburb of Dallas), and there are quite a few others as well.

You're confusing the inner-city with black middle class neighborhoods.

They're not the same.

Do you honestly think we're all alike?

No you're not all alike but the disproportionate numbers speak for themselves both here and abroad. The only "Black" nation I know of that functions well is Bermuda ..for obvious reasons....lot's of off shore money and low population demands and a heavy Brit infrastructure influence. The Caymans and a few of the Windwards probably qualify as well for the same reasons but the Caymans are not exactly black...more mulatto. I've lived in West Africa, Haiti, and was raised and currently live in the American South...the picture aside from the nice exceptions you mention is comparable throughout the world. The problem is virtually the same all over the world as well...serial illegitimacy and even serial polygamy outside the US. Those two cultural anomalies in the worldwide black community have created more harm to the social and economic evolution of the black race far more than colonization or Jim Crow.

Respectfully.
