But, by your own argument, black or ethnic people sold them that land and likely at a profit. So, clearly they have come egg of their faces as well. Yet, you do not mention that. It is all the white guys' fault. then, what if non-white people buy the new product, what of them?
I know of a few neighborhoods in Harlem and north of there where this has happened. So, it is unfair to blame it all on the white people. Thus and IMO, it is socioeconomic argument as opposed to race.
