Articles like this (and this approach is extremely common) push ideological propaganda instead of actual understanding about what is dessicating the middle and lower classes.

The term “white flight” is a nonsense, ideological term only used by a very fringe group.

Real economists and analysts talk about globalization, inflation, trade, shift from manufacturing to service economy etc. the things that are most harming African Americans and Hispanics are not Dollar General stores.

At least in my city (Chicago), the term "white flight" refers to a specific time period with quantifiable demographic shifts (that occurred due to the "Great Migration" out of Mississippi). My Japanese grandparents also fled to the North Side during this period.
