@Hakujin - CA Birmingham

Gross! Why?

Very! Scholarship gibs

I got into Vanderbilt but it was $$$$$$$$$$$

I will say, if I hadn't moved here, I probably wouldn't be in IE

So everything happens for a reason

@Jacob My grandparents learned english extremely fast and were already fairly fluent before they came to America

There really is nothing more eye opening than the culture shock of living around “diverse” communities.

I can actually survive in Birmingham because of how strongly ethnically segregated this place is

I wouldn't be in IE without growing up in Southern California. Becoming more of a Mexican state everyday.

I’ve lived in mostly black areas before, but I live in a white but struggling area now.

It’s funny how I can live in one of the poorest parts of the country with little to no violent crime.

@Hector really makes you think

@Hector I grew up in a mostly black area too.

This county contains the poorest and richest zipcodes in the state

You can drive from one to the other in 15 minutes

If I didn't grow up around immigrants I probably wouldn't be in IE

If Europeans have issues here, have fun trying to assimilate non-Europeans

Exactly.

It’s terrible going back to my childhood home and seeing it covered in graffiti that’s almost 100% put there by blacks.

Like I said to my father who called me a radical, he got to grow up in a 99% white area, while I was forced to go to a school system with 30 percent illegal immigrants.

He has no right to spit on me while I try to change my world.

There actually are initiatives to diversify Appalachia now, by the way. Ones that even most of us here probably haven’t heard of.

There's already the initiative to diversify New Hampshire, it's actually really funny

Basketball is huge in this state, and every tiny little school is importing blacks from the inner cities in to play ball for their schools.

sportsballcapitalism : (

I saw a thing that gave the best and worst parts about each state, for new hampshire it was "very low crime" and worst was "diversity"

Lotta implications here!

So you’ll have 100% white schools of like a couple hundred students in total, and you’ll add a dozen black athletes into the school,

Oy vey! They've gawt the worst diversity!

Woist*

I'll have you speaking Yiddish yet

That is me roleplaying as a bad person, please don't think I am saying that to us.

My parents grew up in an over 99% white country.

Here’s a documentary about all of the evil white racists these troubled black teens have to deal with in KY.

"Given the city’s historic significance in the civil rights movement, it is especially regrettable to see how how segregated the city is today. Over half of the city’s 1.1 million residents live a racially homogeneous neighborhood that shares the same race as them. As is the case across the country, the city’s black population is far more likely to be poor, and far less likely to be employed and well educated, compared to the city’s white population. Less than 1% of the metro area’s white residents both live in poverty and live in neighborhoods where a large share of the population is also poor, compared to more than 15% of Birmingham’s black residents."

WOW REALLY MAKES YOU THINK

My noggin is running a marathon
