>By the same logic that black folks claim they dont feel comfortable in white-majority spaces, white folks do not feel comfortable in black-majority spaces.

I'd argue it's not the same logic at all. The general reason black people might not feel comfortable is completely different from the reason white people might not feel comfortable.

It is the same logic. Black people fear they will be targeted by the police and white people fear they'll be victims of violent crime. Of course, that's an oversimplification, but it 's certainly one of the largest worries.

Black people aren’t afraid of being in white spaces, that’s something woke shit stirrers say to obfuscate the fact black people were priced out of their neighborhoods.
