Friday, August 22, 2025

Housing rights experts say a community restricted to white residents is illegal, but the creators believe they could win a potential challenge in court in the current political climate.

Boaz would consider this a perfect community.

There's a city/suburb on the west side of Ft. Worth called, "White Settlement".

Because that's what it was when it was started in 1840 among the native villages there.

Now there's few natives, and the black population is less than 8 percent.... but they are werkin' on that problem!

Greenville, TX:
"The Blackest Land, The Whitest People"

They're just bringin' back the "good" ol' times.

#3: And no Jews allowed in this enclave. The Arkansas AG says this is legal.

"The community's two architects"

Remember when Republicans ridiculed Community Organizers?

It's like they never realized the White Community could organize, maybe call themselves a Klan.

"The Blackest Land, The Whitest People"

HA! I saw that sign many, many times... every time I drove from Dallas to Commerce to college at ETSU. (now a campus of TX A&M)

Thanks for memories.

(actually, I hadn't clicked on Yav's link... that sign/banner is downtown in Greenville.

What I and millions of others saw was the same sign on the Interstate 20)

Yep - Greenville wasn't the only town with that sign.

Interesting.

Liberal democrat blacks have been touting the "black only" spaces for years now. And it's a problem when whites do it?

Ya got an example that comes close to this? Please post it.

I don't doubt that America is regressing backwards on many fronts and the inevitable proof is whites only communities but what I dob't ubderstand is why would antone want to live in a plaxe surrounded by hater scum? You couldn't pay me enough to live there but John Roberts and Samuel Alito would probably fit right in.
