As a southerner, by rearing, who has visited or lived in most American cities and studied a lot of history, there isn’t much difference in your odds of setting up a radical project in the south or any other American region. There are some radicals doing some great work in Jackson Mississippi right now (the book “Jackson Rising” is inspirational in this regard), while conversely MOVE and the Panthers were viciously attacked by the state in allegedly more “liberal” cities in the north and west. I’d say with the number of Black folk in Georgia, both in numbers and in positions of power, you’d probably be safest there pulling something like this off. My main concern wouldn’t be the proud boys, but more insidious systemic forms of racism, such as some white controlled companies dumping toxic waste or other chemicals in or near their water supply. There are strategic ways to counter such attacks (if you will) but I wouldn’t discuss strategy like that in an open forum (or with people not open to the idea of creating domestic nationalist spaces generally).

Anyway, a Black controlled town will work out as well as being an individual Black person living in America. If you’re staying here, you know the danger. Just plan and be strategic, knowing the risk.

Peace,
