YOU SHOULD BE TRYING TO MOVE THE ENTIRE CITY FORWARD, AND NOT JUST FAVORING AND PROMOTING ONE RACE !
Look at a few historic examples.
Haiti was sick of the French, so the blacks decided to KILL EVERY WHITE PERSON there until all the whites left. (so Haiti got their 'black mecca'), . . . and where did it get them. great standard of living now.
Detroit mayor Coleman Young was on NATIONAL TV, saying, "We dont need no f**king whites in Detriot !" and the running the whites out of town, and along with some economic factors, . . .and what have you in Detriot.
The intelligent educated Blacks very much ENJOY living in a diverse community WITH WHITES, (like Marietta or Kennesaw).
So they should bury this MECCA nonsense along with the "N" word.
Yes b/c the entire continent of Africa doesn't exist. Oh, those Egyptians sure didn't know what they were doing. I can name civilizations from most any race that failed or declined.

What you said about Detroit is completely wrong. Detroit's white leadership had no clue and that is why Detroit turned to crap. Who do you think ran all those autocompanies that failed in Detroit?

I find this entire thread stupid.

Atlanta's black population has certainly exploded in the last 40 years but hasn't the white population also exploded at roughly the same rate?

Within the city limits of Atlanta proper, I'd have to guess that the black population has stayed about the same or decreased somewhat since 1970.

Which raises an interesting question. White flight is often said to be a major cause for the decentralization of American cities. But to what degree has black flight been a factor in that? If I'm not mistaken nearly 100% of the growth in Atlanta's black population has been in the suburbs.

You know -- the deep African-American cultural roots that run through Burlington. All the blues clubs... the barbecue joints... the hip-hop night clubs...

This is one of the most ignorant posts in this thread. You obviously don't have the slightest clue as to why Atlanta is known as a Black mecca, but it's very telling that you feel threatened and offended by just the term. Atlanta will continue to be known as a Black mecca for years, maybe even decades, to come. You need to educate yourself and deal with it and quit with the unwarranted hostility.
