History

The facts in this single sentence may well be true, but it's not expressed in a neutral way, nor is there support for statements that others might challenge: (1) did Robert Moses, as many believe, "ram through" the Cross-Bronx Expressway?, and (2) was this the direct or "inevitable" or principal cause of "White Flight" by Italian Americans? Italian Americans have moved to the suburbs nearly everywhere in the U.S., sometimes prodded by such highway projects and sometimes not (cf. North Beach, San Francisco, California, Federal Hill, Providence, Rhode Island and the North End, Boston, Massachusetts). I'm not saying this analysis is false (someone asserting the contrary would also have to support his or her statements), just that at the moment it's too thin for this encyclopedia. Perhaps one of the External Links has strong arguments, but without at least some footnote, I'm not going to plow through all of them. Shakescene (talk) 23:39, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
