    These stories are some of the strongest rebuttals to the whole "pull yourself up by your bootstraps" argument. We have and we continue to do so even in the face of massive injustice. Black people are perhaps the most resiliant people on earth. I wish we could be just "left alone" to prosper. Wakanda would be a reality. It is only natural for a people to want to uplift themselves. No one wants to live in a supressed condition. No one I know anyway.

      The Black Board thank you for mentioning the all black town of Allensworth, the town outpaced many predominantly white los angeles suburbs and was very independent but white racism made sure it didn't prosper anymore the final nail in the coffin came when the residents of Allensworth petitioned the atchison, topeka, and santa fe railroad to build a spur from it's mainline which the residents said would cost the railroad nothing since the residents of Allensworth were going to pay for the spur track they were still denied instead the railroad built the spur to serve a less prosperous all white town.

    You need to holla at LaVilla in Jacksonville. It was the home of James Weldon Johnson (among others) and his brother Rosamond wrote the "Lift ev'ry voice and sing", the Black National Anthem. The first Blues recording was recorded here. This is also the place where Ray Charles lived after graduating from the St. Augustine School of Deaf and Blind. He lived here with his aunt and dropped his last name, Robinson, and started performing as Ray Charles. It was a bustling Black metro that was what Atlanta is today. It has been called the Harlem of the South, but actually, the Renaissance owes a great debt to the many Blacks from this area that migrate north to Harlem.

Sad that there's an entire generation who never knew these neighborhoods to be anything but run down. Only seeing the neighborhood improve due to white gentrifiers definitely has an impact on the Black child's sense of self-worth.

      Ronnie Williams I believe you are right. A friend told me in 1977, that integration was not going to do for us what we thought. She was right. Our black professionals left our schools and neighborhoods. Our young black athletes started getting recruited by white colleges and a lot of black students chose those colleges over HBCU’s. Where are all our plumbers, electricians, landscapers, woodworkers, painters, cement worker, roofers and etc.? When I was a girl, my parents called on black men to come to the house to build or repair everything. We had some beautiful neighborhoods.

      Many of these scenarios weren't killed by integration. Remember, segregation wasn't about independent control. Under segregation, white governments STILL controlled the land even when we "owned" it. We did as well as we good. Segregation wasnt the answer as MLK critics in the Black community seem to think. True political and economic separatism and possibly leaving the U.S. may have been a more liberating option.
