Racial Divide in St. Louis Catches Attention of the BBC

Segment looks at racial divide and role of Delmar Blvd. Always noticed this divide over the years... (grew up along Delmar..although further west, along the city's border. Divide persisted there too..and still does to this day). This is the elephant in the room that people in the area are aware of on some level...but never talk about. It's the first time I have seen it reported by a major news service...or any news service for that matter. Local media never touches the subject. Knew St. Louis was one of the most segregated... but report really makes the point. See here.

I'm not sure what the point of posting this video is.

White America has been paying a jizya to Black America since about 1965. And it hasn't done anything to improve the conditions for Black America, even though blacks are in the same schools, and even have complete management of systems like the entire city of Detroit and the Washington, DC WMATA. No whites "keepin em down" there. Both are absymal failures and remain on lifesupport from the shakedowns of white taxpayers.

Enough is enough. Whites have built successful, peaceful communities and deserve to enjoy the fruits of their labors.

Blacks have the same opportunities, but choose not to take them.

And this is White America's problem....how exactly????
