Description

Paul Kersey, the author of Escape from Detroit, focuses his attention on the racial history of not only Ferguson, but the entire St. Louis region in Bell Curve City, where a combination of white flight from black crime and the federal government mandated Section 8 Housing created the conditions enabling the scenario of what happened on August 9 between Wilson and Brown. Bell Curve City proves the cry of "Black Lives Matter" is not only a hypocritical one, but a mantra devoid of any historical evidence to support the assertion of the sanctity of black life: especially when one looks at the unmentionable racial realities shaping St. Louis and Ferguson.
