My pops is from Tulsa and I've been to this historical area. Even after it was burned down, Tulsa had a strong, vibrant black community of progessive people. All around my father in his neighborhood were engineers, doctors, teachers, etc and they were all black. Which begs the question, Was desegregration a bad thing for black people?

Joy, you are so right. The answer to your question is DISTRACTION. We are distracted by the concern for accumulating stuff. That's not bad, but wanting stuff more than wanting intellectual capital or making long-term plans is what keeps us from getting together and building communities and enterprises like we use to. We were focused. The Hispanic community is focused – for now, but I wager in 2 or 3 generations their children will be fully enculturated in American materialism that they to will wonder what happened.

I have mention this story many times to my children, that we once prospered in white society and why is it that we can't do it again if the hispanic community can come together and get things done why can't we?
