        @rainyday80 @WSJ they aren't assuming anything. All predominantly black neighborhoods here are also struggling economically. It's regional

        @rainyday80 @WSJ Here, meaning St. Louis, spec. North County. That's what I meant by regional. The racial politics are deeply segregated.

        @rainyday80 @WSJ until late 60's there were legal sundown towns here. Even after, the off the book policies didn't change for a long time.

        @rainyday80 @WSJ The combo of sundown towns and people in power slow to change and be inclusive is behind what's happening in #Ferguson

        @WSJ By "race" surely you only mean "colour"? We are all one race, the human race.

        @WSJ The way I read it, Ferguson racial makeup was not white flight, but blacks moving to the suburbs.
