The job market up North is lacking openings. People of color were there over twenty years ago but the lack of jobs made many leave.
The ski resorts have black people but they are pointed out. It isn’t fair to make them uncomfortable like that. They go elsewhere and diversity suffers.
My house in Maine was bought when the internet was new and research was limited. A friend saw it and sent pictures and I bought it without seeing it in person. I didn’t know if my neighbors were white or black, rich or poor, noisy or quiet old or young. I cared about the house, proximity to highway and stores, hospitals and a safe road to get away from the nuclear plant if needed
I saw all races at the mall in Portsmouth. All ages, all religions. It was like being home. People need a reason to live up North. Jobs are #1. When people of color are ready, they’ll move there. You’re right, force isn’t needed
