During the decades that Washington had a black majority, national policy makers and investors left the city’s aging infrastructure for dead. So it is astonishing to witness the about-face that has accompanied the influx of white professionals in the past decade. Now there are urban-friendly transportation policies, lavish corporate spending on education and billions in private real estate investment and development. As residents finally get the city they have always deserved, many black Washingtonians are feeling the rage of the loyal first wife, kicked to the curb as soon as things started looking up.

My daddy had a Somali restaurant in the late 1990s on U Street... now its transformed with the metro (green line) and all these non blacks in the area

I rather have whites take over a black area than Mexicans. Like you see in Dallas and Houston.

It's going to be a long time before they drive all the black people out of D.C. anyway.

Edit

Damn I never realized the Black population have dropped like that in D.C.


White Black

1970 27.7% 71.1%
1980 26.9% 70.3%
1990 29.6% 65.8%
2000 30.8% 60.0%
2010 38.5% 50.7%

there is no difference between affluent whites and affluent mexicans

but i'll take the poor mexicans over the poor whites, cause atleast they provide good food, cleaning services and much better looking women.

besides, the amount of blacks that moved literally less than 5 miles out of the city has just as much to do with the population shift as gentrification does.

they're pushing everyone out of Northeast and to some degree, Southeast DC into Central and Southern Prince Georges County, Maryland.

City is still 47-48% black, I think

Stop it with that Mexicans are hard workers for cheap pay myth.

shyt in Dallas Mexicans charge as much as white contractors and are just as lazy with shytty work. Mexican women are the worst looking of the Hispanic women.
