Racism is the main reason why NBR has declined bottom line. White people are generally in control of the economy and they have by and large chose no longer to invest in NBR due to once again the lack of whites in the area.
It really saddens me to see only the affluent areas close to LSU growing ... I feel like the whole city suffers when only a very small portion of the city sees any type of commendable economic development and growth.

I'm going to let you in on a little well known secret...developers are going to follow and build where there are money, jobs, and growth. As much as you want it to be about race or poor, poor pitiful me, it's not. Again, they (rightfully so) will follow money, jobs, and growth to be successful.

The amount of ignorant white racist trash on TD is repulsive and alarming. I'm clearly not among intelligent, decent, and inclusive people.
And people wonder why LSU academic rankings continue to take a nose dive, enrollment is down, why most of our brightest Louisiana and U.S. high school scholars avoid LSU, and why we can't attract top professors on the level of more prestigious and liberal public universities such as UC Berkeley and UT Austin.
