    I grew up in Texas and was really surprised when I traveled to learn that most northern cities are more racially divided than what I was used to.

    When Samuel Huntington criticized about Chinese ghetto for not being assimilated to the American way of living, he didn't even mention about the segregation. We only heard Asian was not discriminated as bad as African American. I bet many ordinal Americans don't know what exactly happened in own country. That's shame.

      Okay, I'm African American and I'm tired of the pitting one against the other we both felt and experienced The Hatred and The Murders by crazed White's by the way because of the color of our respective Skin or where one came from in the World.
      I was raised in Oakland, CA I attended school's that taught the History of California.
      It was once apart of Mexico which became a Colonies of Spain thanks too Christopher Columbus setting out too prove the World was Flat or Round?
      I forget, then a war was fought against Mexico and California a bunch of State's got added into The Union happily for my African American self they came in as a Free State.
      Then there was The Gold Rush (1840) and Manifest Destiny coined after The War with Mexico.
      That's when I 1st began learning Chinese History in America.
      Which seemingly occurred right when The Gold Rush got started and found out that International Jim Crow Law; The Chinese Exclusion Act kept getting promoted as The Law of The U.S.A 5 Time's in America's History.
      It paid attending Bay Area School's where ethnic diversity was celebrated we visited Oakland, CA only Museum
      (I think they've since closed it),
      This is why I say we as African American's and Asian American's beginning with The Chinese Immigrants faced the same Evil, so while we were getting Lynched gang raped and slaughter by crazed White American's who hated People just to Hate something, The Chinese too face armed mob's that mirrored what took place with Tulsa, Oklahoma May 31, 1921 Crime's Against Humanity; Race Riot promotes this uncanny image of skipping in The Rain while holding hand's.
      I came too find out about two major proverbial Tulsa, OK Violent Actions.
      1 in California the outskirts of Los Angeles there was a Town of Chinese Immigrants minding their own business going about their day when an Angry Mob of White Men blaming the Chinese Community for The Economy Tanking attack, The People in their Town were caught off-guard their home's were burnt down, people were beaten up while other's were murdered just for being chinese.
      That wasn't even the biggest reveal the biggest reveal is that Chinese Immigrants towns in California anyway weren't called China Town instead Negro Town, okay I'm African American and I went Say What? Say that again?
      I watched 10 Time's on PBS, I wasn't mistaken Chinese Historians shared that on The Chinese Exclusion Act, 1882.
      I chose too conduct more research on those violent attack's towards Chinese American's that was so like Chicago, Ill, 1919 & Tulsa, OK 1921.
      Found it Rock Spring's Wyoming 1885.
      That was Tulsa, The Deep South's wide spread lynching's and Convict Leasing programs that enslaved people all over again.
      Keeping the former slaves indefinitely enslaved.
      Unarmed Chinese Miner's were massacred by The Klan White Night's Labor, it was so bad it made all the Newspaper's and with Evil reasoning sought too blame the Chinese for what transpired for not assimilating into America properly when they knew good and we'll The Chinese Exclusion Act did just that Jim Crow Laws were forced on The Chinese too so essentially they were blamed for Being Chinese like Black People were blamed for Being Black there's no other word for it.
      The worse horror involving The Massacre 1885, in Rock Spring's Wyoming against Unarmed Chinese Miner's, some were murdered through Burning's they burned Them Alive some only Chinese Miners parts of their body could be found too identify Them that's completely horrific.
      A quick note I got assigned a Text book for a History Class where we studied About The History of Labor Union's in America and the opposition they faced via Socio-economic and Political Wise.
      Books title:A People's History of The United State's: 1492-2008.
      I read about The Spanish American War 1898, supposedly Teddy Roosevelt fought in and the invasion of The Philippine's.
      Okay so from PBS I learned Chinese Immigrants were referred too as Negroes and Philippino's got The N-word everyday of the War long after the Kidnapping and conquering of these places much like The Philippines.
      I'm African American I made it my mission to learn of everybodies Story so one doesn't go through life believing Their the only one's this has happened too.
      An for Good Measure I found out one Sunday Morning about the Holocaust, in Europe before & after WWII when I was 6 year's old, again my mom taught me made me watch still Black & White documentaries that Sunday.
      It didn't faze me it was in Black & White watching the horror show. At 15 year's old stumbled across this Book titled:
      A Nightmare in History: 1933-1945 author Miriam Chaikin.
      I'm sure there's more stories out there that I've yet too learn about and looking forward to that moment.
      Seriously I'm tired of being pitted against one another is anyone else sick of it too?

    This isn't a surprise too me before it had a name Jim Crow was used in Philadelphia too keep Black People from Riding the Street Car's.
    Then once they were allowed to ride the Street Car's were forced to sit in the Back of The Street Car's, which was Hell for Black Women who had to sit with people who Chewed Tobbaco, and Smoking Cigarettes in Car's which were never cleaned.
    Malcolm X in his own Autobiography mentioned that curfews were in affect in Lansing, Michigan towards Black People who weren't supposed to be out by a certain time.

      There is a statue of Octavius Catto in downtown Philadelphia. He was part of the struggle to end transportation segregation. The statue is located on the south side of City Hall.

    Why didn’t they start with why restrictive covenants weren’t implemented before the great migration and why they were eventually implemented

    The first public high school to integrate was in the south. The governor even called in the national guard. They also gave 40 acres and a mule.

      40 Acres and a Mule?
      I read this Book Black Labor White: The Search for Power and Economic Justice, he wrote this Book in the aftermath of The L.A. Riots because of The Rodney King Verdict April 26, 1992; by Claud Anderson.
      He later wrote another detailing certain Myth's that were held up as Historical.
      Claud mentioned that people forget why The Mexican War got fought for in the first place, because Santa Ana, had Abolished Slavery at every level.
      In Mexico African's and Indigenous were both enslaved, one point The Vatican as in Papal Rome, issued and edict too ease the mistreatment and enslavement of Indigenous People, but, instructed the same People to continue the abuses of Slaves from Africa.
      Santa Ana Emancipated Everyone, and went further with the Abolishment; through The Conquistadors they established Territory for Spain.
      Arizona
      California
      Colorado
      Nevada
      New Mexico
      Texas
      Utah
      Wyoming
      Bear in mind clearly Spain didn't ask the various Sovereign Nation's what they thought on the subject.
      After War of Independence of Spain Mexico attempted too maintain the Vast Land.
      Santa Ana's People in debt from War aimed focus on the Spanish Monasteries wondering why they had So Much Land and The People had Nothing.
      Santa Ana's Administrative Team ordered The Monasteries too give up The Land to pass on to the people.
      The Monk's found away around it they promoted Colorism and Devoted Catholic's to Catholicism.
      Those whose ancestry were more Spanish from Spain more Lighter Hued in skin coloring than darker pigmentation of Indigenous People they became the Servant's to the vast land owners, Indigenous People, were supposed too get farm land as well.
      With Santa Ana abolishing All Slavery that mean's between California, New Mexico, & Texas former African Slaves would have had land how much land?
      A woman, an orphan raised in The Monasteries was 100% devoted to Catholicism she was given 45,000 acres then went on a buying spree of more land, Another Faithful Catholic Vallejo (yes Vallejo, CA) owned 65,000 acres from present day Vallejo too Sonoma, CA, He owned Vineyards and Cattle.
      I still felt bad for what happened to Vallejo later at the hand's of America; now before I went off-the grid and shared about Santa Ana and the abolishing of Slavery and edict that affected New Mexico & Texas, I believe 40 Acres were mentioned?
      If Santa Ana had won The War we could of gotten 20,000 acres or more, instead we were promised though never received 40 Acres and a Mule.

      @@kasjamm Perhap's not the school's but, there was segregation, around The Northern Cities too that was mentioned even by Malcolm X In his "I charge the White Man" speech.
      It wasn't till 1964 in Harlem & New Jersey when Race Riots broke out that Civil Right's chapter's took notice, then other cities followed suit after Harlem,NY provoked by Law Enforcement.
      Watts, L.A. August 11, 1965, then came Detroit, 1967, cities in Ohio explodes Cleveland, Cincinnati, Philly.
      Chicago Dr. King did a test run to march for economic Rights combating against Poverty before leaving Chicago, Dr. King told Journalist's that Chicago was worse than all the places combined in The South he ever demonstrated Chicago managed to knock out Mississippi with it's Racism.
