The Stranger, 24 Oct 2012 – People Will Give You a Lot of Reasons to Vote to Legalize Pot on November 6, but You’re Not Going to Hear Much About the One That Matters Most I grew up near the edge of the Central District, and our house was at the top of a ridge, which served as a sort of racial dividing line. Houses on the eastern slope had spectacular views of the mountains and Lake Washington. They were expensive and their residents were all white. I can’t recall a single black person who lived on that side of the hill. On the other side of the ridge, the houses’ territorial views looked back into the gulch. With only scattered exceptions, those were all African American households.
