Gentrifries with that shake???




The late Professor Samuel P. Huntington, from Harvard University, predicted that whites would "create an America that would exclude, expel, or suppress [blacks and Hispanics...which] is a highly probable reaction from a once dominant ethnic-racial group that feels threatened by the rise of [these] groups. " Samuel P. Huntington, Who Are We? The Challenges to America's National Identity (New York, Simon & Schuster 2004) p. 20.

Gentrification is simply a step going down the road to national eviction, or so Hunting would embrace.

Those who know him and his body of work would understand that these are not idle words spoken by some right-wing lunatic. After 9/11 he was the most quoted authority on the conflict between the West and Islam. In fact, he predicted it in 1993 in his Foreign Affairs article title The Clash of Civilization, and then he followed up the best selling article with a book of the same title in 1996. What I thought was profoundly baffling was that in 2004 after the release of Who Are We? where he recommended the eviction of blacks and Hispanics from America, there were only 4 black people at his book signing at Politics and Pros - me, my wife, my son and another black sister...I'm sorry, 5 blacks, if you count the guy who was protesting out front from Lyndon Larouche's organization.
