Ours isn’t the only place that has covered this topic. Other media outlets such as Black Enterprise, Huffington Post, and Forbes have all done the same.

While all of the dialogue and the news coverage of this issue have been extremely thought-provoking and informative, the burning question is: At this point in time, does it really matter where Black people choose to live and/or relocate to in the U.S.?

Nationwide redlining, unarmed Blacks being murdered (in places like Atlanta) by race soldiers, and being kicked out of night spots (in places like Houston) are occurring in areas that we have been migrating to in recent years…and it’s happening for no sensible reason other than the color of our skin..and the lack of solidarity in Black Society. Is it a safe assumption to make that white supremacy is far-reaching, and could care less about what new “Black Meccas” we attempt to move to (if there’s no sustainable economic base in place)?

Do you feel that there should be specific areas where Melanoid people reside in order to collectively build and thrive? Why or why not?
