That was my assumption, but also why I asked for clarification. I try not to take the worst possible interpretation as truth. But if that's the case, I would just point out Atlanta. It's half-black and doing fine. So it'd be silly to claim.
"Blackness" seems like a poor metric for economic vibrancy.

In America, we have a problem of communication between communities. One society is not better than the other. That is same tired old "debate" that we should avoid here.
