Some african-american friends moved from the bay area to Atlanta a few
years ago. The reason for the move was escaping the high cost of living
in the Bay area, the better family/social networks in Atlanta, better
job opportunities....and, in terms of racism, that they were more
comfortable dealing with the "honest" racism of the south.
