I was never told that black neighborhoods were bad neighborhoods when growing up. As one psychologist put it, kids learn to speak Martian. By that, he meant that kids pick up on the subtle cues that parents and teachers hint about, but don't explicitly say.
I lived in a big urban city for the first few years of my life, but we moved out to the country soon afterwards. My parents said that it was so that us kids could run around outside. They didn't mention the MLK riots that destroyed a good deal of the city.
I grew up being told that racists were bad and that all people were the same regardless of skin color. I had very few black school mates. In fact, up until the sixth or seventh grade, I had no (zero) black classmates. Everyone was white, no minorities. When I started going to the local high school, the black population was only about 10% of the school. I would often have advance classes where there would be no black classmates, or, just one. I can remember one black female in one of my English classes and she was quiet and reserved, nothing like black culture as a whole.
When I started driving, that's when my parents would tell me things like stay out of such and such a neighborhood, it's dangerous especially at night. Each time they told me so, it was always a black neighborhood. My family didn't much watch the evening news, but when we did, all the shootings seemed to be of the black on black variety.
I had a teacher tell us about how she went to England when she was in High School. Because she was from Texas, the English students wanted to know if there were still cowboys and gun fights like they had seen in the westerns. She told them that there were gun fights, then she joked with us that she didn't tell them that the gun fights were all in the ghetto of Houston, not the OK Coral.
I was never told that a black neighborhood is almost always a bad neighborhood, it's something that we were left to figure out on our own. Years later, I had a French friend who married an American. He said the same thing to me. No one ever told him explicitly that black neighborhoods were bad. He remembered getting pulled over in a big city ghetto. The cops thought at first that he was looking to buy drugs, why else would a white person be in that area at night? It's only after they figured that he was a dumb tourist that they let him go. However, it was his clue that the area wasn't safe.
Today, kids still learn Martian. The only problem is that they are learning two contradictions. On the one hand they are told to overtly condemn racists (and all the racists are always white, never a mention of anti-white racism), but on the other hand they are still given the same subtle clues that black areas are not safe areas.
It's no wonder that we are producing a generation of mixed up kids. They know to spew forth anti-white propaganda when called upon to do so in academia or at their jobs, but on the other hand, they know to avoid majority black areas like the plague.
