No, I feel people should live pretty much wherever they want.

I understand it very well, which is why I said it. But I don’t really buy the argument. If a brilliant black person shows the interviewer of a company that she will add value (money) to that company, most companies will snatch her up, culture or race be damned.

At the end of the day, many of those white people who go out of their way to profess how they’re “allies” are the worst (most insidious) racists. As long as they can live in white or safely “gentrified” neighborhoods far removed from where poor black people live, they scream about how horrible other white people are…

Most of the children of bohemians I know went to good schools and are doing cool, creative shit. No, mostly not neurosurgeons. But certainly professionals of some sort or other.

You could also argue that programming and writing code itself is “culturally specific” as well, but you’re not…

If a brilliant black man or woman applies to Google, and this person proves during the interview that he/she can add loads of value to the company, do you think that the company will not hire this person?

Then how do you explain South Asians, who are just as dark (darker) than many Latinos and African Americans? Are we talking about race per se, or is this a cultural thing? For example, would a black person from Nigeria or a Londoner of West Indian heritage have an easier time fitting in than an African American?…

Not that simple. There are plenty of artistic/academic parents without much money who keep tons of books in the house and don’t watch bad television. Culture has one hell of a lot to do with it.
