[sudo-discuss] Stop with the race baiting immediately

[Andrew]

I totally agree with batkid. As a black person who has contributed directly
to the gentrification of west oakland I'd like to say that gentrification
is an issue that can not be reduced to race, social status, industry, etc.
I would encourage people to think critically about how their actions affect
the communities they live in, but not to get caught up in liberal guilt
land unless you plan on taking some kind of direct action.
