well certainly white flight to the suburbs happened very dramatically after civil rights actually especially after busing
白人向郊区大迁移的情况在黑人乘车权等权利得到维护后 发生得尤为频繁
to achieve racial integration in schools
以避免学校中各人种的融合 (维护白人优越性)
so that happened in 1970s and 1980s to a very large degree
这主要发生在20实际70和80年代
now actually you're getting black flight
而现在相反的出现了黑人大迁移
places like Compton and Watts in Los Angeles
在洛杉矶县的康普顿和瓦特
they are losing black population gaining Hispanic population
正在经受黑人的移出 同时有西班牙裔移入
and a lot of the African Americans are moving to places like Lancaster on the High Desert Area
而这些黑人很多都选择移居到高原沙漠区的兰卡斯特等地
and you've had a lot of black suburbanization in places like the DeKalb County near Atlanta
同时在亚特兰大附近的迪卡布尔县等地 以及马里兰州的乔治王子县等地
Prince George's County in Maryland
也出现了黑人在郊区的大量聚集
yes you're having sort of that as well
现在的确有很多这类的变化
so yes that's certainly part of it
这是人口变化的结果
some cities have stabilized and are now growing again
有些过去以及稳定下来的城市 现在又进入到发展壮大的状态
others just continue to decline
而其他城市则继续衰落
Detroit it's gone from 1.6 million to 800,000
如底特律人口从160万下降到80万
its former mayor now in prison
它的前任市长现在身陷囹圄
there have been a lot of efforts to revive Detroit
人们曾经想方设法地振兴底特律
it's hard to imagine how much it's going to revive
很难想象它到底能有多大程度的恢复
I'm not too hopeful about that
我对此不抱多大希望
yes

yes so the comment is places like some of the inner suburbs in Detroit that had been industrial blue-collar working class white suburbs
好的 他说的是在一些地方 如底特律的内城郊区 过去住的是蓝领阶层 以白人为主
now more African American
现在则变成以黑人为主
and then so you sort of get this chain movement in the sort of continuing flight out to the newer suburban fringe
这就形成了连锁反应 人们不停地往城市外部迁移 到更远的城郊区域
a lot of this movement depends on cheap gasoline for commuting patterns
这种迁移建立于汽油较为便宜 为他们提供廉价交通的基础上
and with gasoline more expensive it becomes somewhat more difficult
随着油价越来越贵 这种迁移的难度也随着增加
but then I guess the question of mass transit comes in
不过我想接下来大众运输将会成为一个问题
yes absolutely right that's been a big factor
对你说的没错 这的确是个问题
