It's quite a story, actually. Americans, black and white alike, are moving in record numbers to a part of the country where taxes are low, unions are irrelevant, and people love their guns and their faith. And yet we heard hardly a peep about this great migration from out nation's public intellectuals.
Why? Because their ideological prejudices won't permit them to admit the obvious. They'd prefer to focus their research on the pre-1970's South because they are more comfortable with - and more invested in - that old narrative, while this new one marches on right under their noses. And their keyboards.
Indeed. Read the whole thing.
