The best way to reach other groups is to integrate with them. Living, working, and playing together. Sharing third spaces. Urban density and making stuff walkable makes it easier for people of differing groups to mix and interact, which tones down bad behavior.

I've thought some about the difference between car traffic and train traffic. When you're stuck in car traffic everyone else is an asshole and impersonal. When you're on the subway and "the train is being held by the dispatcher", you have a moment of shared frustration with everyone around you. The white wall street guy and the black retail person can share a moment and humanize each other a little. Can't really do that in separate cars.

A developed country is not a place where the poor have cars. It's where the rich use public transport

The white people who grow up and live in all white communities seem to blame non whites so easily, despite never interacting. Whereas the people who live in dense urban centers and other diverse places tend to be more supportive and vote for their rights. Go figure

It's not enough, you need policy that explicitly attacks gentrification and the segregation of neighbourhoods by income. There are plenty of examples of ghettos in densely-populated areas, both rich and poor.
