To me it sounded as if he was a southern African American male from the south, which kinda of fit with the Georgia location they are claiming.

Buying in an area you know nothing about is like going into the African jungle without a guide.

It is one block from AME Church, which is one of the most prosperous and well attended churches in Baltimore City's African American community. 

Seems like they have a pretty deep rooted middle class African-American population, so what gentrification do some of you commenters propose to bring to the area?

Due to the current political climate in South Africa, I would NOT invest any money in the South African economy. 

I have been funding the neighborhoods your investing in since 2001.. over 2000 loans in those areas and I owned over 350 of these homes personally.my rent rolls were 99% African American females.. so I know what I speak of by experience.

An African American man who is a lawyer is a member of a protected class.

And - the kicker - The article @TimButler posted focuses on neighborhoods that have very established and proud African-american communities that are seeing development and professionals for the first time. 

Universities have been maintaining by increasing graduate and international enrollement (the first group is pretty well tapped out, but the second shows huge potential with Asian and African students looking for opportunities).

We have a house that we are rehabbing and it has an African Killer Bee infestation in the attic.
