The Left Will Tell You It Is "White Flight." It Isn't

Because if they look at the facts, they might have to reconsider their own policies. And they will never do that. The Factors Driving Flight From Chicago | Chicago Contrarian

Today’s migration comes as a result of crime, systemic education failures and progressive policies. The radical left coalition replacing the “Machine” in Chicago and Illinois may blame this on the tragedy of white privilege, yet in reality, the exodus could not be more inclusive and equitable this time around. Crime is at the top of the list for most people.

Crime increased substantially, most notably carjacking, in Chicago in 2020, and so far 2021 is worse on all fronts.

The New York Times published an in-depth essay on African American Chicago and pointed out that 50,000 black residents have left the city since 2015. And though the population remains split about a third for each of the major ethnic groups — white, Latino and black, the general exodus from the city no longer can be characterized by the phrase “white flight.”

This is an article about Chicago, because I read a lot of websites that have to do with that city. Do you Baltimore, or New York, or Philadelphia are different? They may not have the same inmates in charge of the asylum, but they are plagued by a lot of the same policies.

  1. When did 1/3 latino become the norm for American cities? It's actually higher than that in many places, even places you wouldn't think of like Hartford CT.

    How and when did that happen? It's well outside the range of organic growth thru reproduction, and far exceeds legal immigration...

    Makes you wonder.
