The problem is not whites moving in. The problem is there are many black property owners who were denied loans to fix up properties because of predatory lending/red-lining. Now that those practices have been lifted, eminent domain is being abused to STEAL properties. My aunt had her properties STOLEN w/ the help of a shady politician. She had good credit & no leans, yet she couldn't get loans to fix them up due to predatory lending. Once they decided to stretch University City to the "Bottom" of West Philly, they took her properties & rented them out. Once the banks finally decided to give loans for W-Philly it was too late. Some developer took her properties. It’s disgusting! She'd being trying to get loans for renovation for years. Each bank was prepared to give her money until she hit them w/ the location...West Philadelphia. Then they'd say...We don't give loans for that area. Meanwhile, some mastermind dipped in and used eminent domain to take her properties.

Who cares if white people want West Philly back? Just don't use slimy politics and schemes to STEAL it!
