Blacks abandon San Francisco: No US city has seen a more rapid decline of its African-American population.

Date: June 14, 2009

Author: Michael B. Farrell

QUOTE: While San Francisco's image has been defined by a history of tolerance and openness, some say today's reality is much different. They paint a picture of a racially and economically divided city where blacks are vanishing from the social and cultural fabric, priced out and marginalized by the urban redevelopment policies of the past half century.
