I don't deny that at all. The question is "What do you *do* about it"?

What kind of person would do that? "I'm going to break the law because the police stopped me last week and asked me who I was"

I doubt anyone would do it just because of that.
But if it was last week, and the week before, *and* last month *and* your friends *and* your relations and all just because you're black, perhaps you might think a little bit differently.

For managers, not much of a turnover. you've got to remember that most of the floor staff are part time student workers who are doing it for extra money.

And soon decide it isn't worth it.

Well the first one talks about the segregation of ethnic groups in bradford because the textile manufacturers who were finding housing for these workers decided to put them in groups rather than just mixing them up.
Was this because the employers were racist? Who knows, I can't really see how it could be. More likely that they just felt it would help people to live next to others from their same ethnic origins.

More likely because the Whites refused to live in the same communities as the heathen Blacks etc or because the employers frowned on "mixing the races" etc.
