When a neighborhood is prodominantly made up of an ethinic group, the neighborhood takes on the nick-name indicating the fact:
Little Italy,
Little Odessa,
China town,
But why is it that, black neighborhoods never are called "Little Africa"?
Is local politics so corrupt that they can't allow blacks to name their community after their ethinic identity (as so many other ethnic groups have done)?
Also, given the crime & violence of so many black neighborhoods, why are they never called "Little Samolia" or something like that?
Thank you.
