Most racially tense major cities in the United States?

[The Special Man]

I never forget when they changed the route for the Desire bus cause cacs were complaining.


Had to take the Bywater bus home and if I even sneezed the driver would kick me off the bus


Brehs no matter how "free spirited" or "weird" cacs are, they're still cacs, learned that growing up in the N.O

I see Milwaukee popping up on here, but most of the board hasn't spent any substantial time here.

A lot depends on how you define racial tension. If you're thinking of it as you walk around town and some CAC shouts a slur at you, you generally won't find that here. People are way too passive aggressive for that. You can move freely in the city proper; some places will be more comfortable and your speed than others, but again, it's super rare to experience anything or anyone being outwardly hostile toward you.

Now, if racial tension is being measured by segregation, that's different. There's a long, nasty history with that and it hasn't been dealt with properly. As a result, you see the poverty and inequality that plagues the city. And then, when shyt blows up, the nation sees it and has the perception of the city that it does.

I just randomly had a talk with a kid about this place. He says everybody in Wisconsin he’s each other along racial lines. Not That is different in other places but it seems to be very pronounced with the amount of tension in Milwaukee.

In order for me:

Milwaukee
Pittsburgh
Chicago
Boston

Is Pittsburgh really that racially tense ?

I never picked it up when I was out there. Of course I was only out there for two days.

......this is told to you in Texas and certain cities in the Midwest and the South....please come off that bullshyt....

Those are not big cities though.

I’d hate to live in Boston or anywhere in New England. Racism and the weather in the winter is brutal

Not enough white people in Detroit to be racially tense

when I see a white person here outside of Downtown I look at em like a lost peacock trying find its way home

Anywhere that group we can’t talk about is the majority, there is going to be racial tension. The higher the black population, the less tension there usually is

I’m not surprised most people picked Boston. I’m sure they did purposely.

I'm sorry man I haven't been to Miami in a while so maybe there just is no tension between blacks in Spanish maybe it's all love like New York. My fault.

I have family in Miami, it's tenser than the locals care to admit.

From my point of view it’s really hard but the most racial tension I see these days are some parts of the nation where it’s Hispanic vs black and red trump supporters vs minorities

Segregated somewhat not tense

Both sides don’t bother each other for the most part
