Bell Curve City ― St. Louis, Ferguson, and the Unmentionable Racial Realities That Shape Them

Not so long ago, in a suburb seemingly like any other in America…On August 9, 2014, an altercation between a white police officer and a black male in a suburb of St. Louis set in motion a course of events capturing international attention and creating a revolutionary zeal amongst blacks exacerbated by the black President of the United States and the black Attorney General of the Department of Justice. Time magazine ran a cover story on the situation, dubbing the aftermath Officer Darren Wilson's encounter with Michael Brown "The Tragedy of Ferguson."But the true tragedy of what happened to Ferguson and metropolitan St. Louis has yet to be told: until now. This is the Ferguson War Journal, a day-by-day account of what happened in the media-created maelstrom ultimately culminating in Darren Wilson's complete exoneration of any wrongdoing.Paul Kersey, the author of Escape from Detroit, focuses his attention on the racial history of not only Ferguson, but the entire St. Louis region in Bell Curve City, where a combination of white flight from black crime and the federal government mandated Section 8 Housing created the conditions enabling the scenario of what happened on August 9 between Wilson and Brown. Bell Curve City proves the cry of "Black Lives Matter" is not only a hypocritical one, but a mantra devoid of any historical evidence to support the assertion of the sanctity of black life: especially when one looks at the unmentionable racial realities shaping St. Louis and Ferguson.Written as a series of journal entries, Bell Curve City will explore exactly how Ferguson became Ferguson… and what it means for not just metropolitan St. Louis, but all of America.More importantly, Ferguson provides the ultimate lesson on what Americans can expect for their community, as the nefarious social engineering plan by HUD (Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing) comes to fruition.
