The Invation Of Gary Indiana

Years ago, after the passing of the Civil Rights Bill, Gary, Indiana was invaded. When it was invaded the entire white populace left and moved thirty to thirty-five miles away from the town. The news media interpreted this as a “fear complex” from having a bad conscience about slaves being brought over from Africa before the Civil War. Now Gary, a 90% black town, is promoting the advantages of casino gambling. The Black Post Tribune News has been publishing a long series of articles entitled, “Region Divided.” The idea being “there are still 10% whites in the town.” The headline says, “Ending Segregation Is Northwest Indiana’s Biggest Challenge of the 1990’s.” The words that appear over and over again in the Tribune are “disparity and lending,” “stagnant economy,” “worrisome problems,” “blockbusting,” “biased and perception,” “patterns of investment,” and “black empowerment.” Of this bankrupt, degenerate community about to resort to gambling to pay it’s bills, the Executive Director, Maxine Young, says, “this is a very stable, industrial community and an almost virginal recreation community.”

That is, nobody with money goes there to spend it.

It’s their “fear complex” from 1860.
