Racial Cleansing

Reading this column on the razing of projects in New Orleans made my blood boil.

Excerpt

All told, 4,600 low-income housing units will be razed in a shocking act of class and racial cleansing disguised as reconstruction. All the former residents of those projects, after all, were not only low-income, they were all black, say Hann and housing advocates in New Orleans.

So what's supposed to happen here. Leave these projects as is so they can become the crime cesspools they were prior to Katrina?
