The "white flight" of the 1950's led many whites to suburban areas where blacks were not allowed to buy houses. They were not alowwed to buy houses so whites could live in a utopia of suburban life. While blacks were unable to purchase land they stayed in cities where property values went down forced to rent and always owe money. The key to expanding financially is real estate and they did not want blacks to be involved. Land goes all the way back to the 1800's.
