7. “White Flight” and Deindustrialization

Discussion Board original posts should be a minimum of 300 words in length and must incorporate specific in-text citations, including page numbers when possible.

Week 9 explored the phenomena of “white flight” and deindustrialization and the connections between them. Citing at least the lecture video three additional items ( from the Boggs video or the three required readings) please discuss:

How does the term “white flight” obscure the history of suburbanization and subsequent “decline” of urban centers? How would you accurately explain this history to someone you know outside of this class?
According to Boggs or McGhee, how does deindustrialization hurt most Americans, not just a certain segment of Americans and how can people work together to counter the effects of deindustrialization or the unequal shifting of resources in our society?
