[edit] Hyphen
First, there is a redirect from African-American to African American precisely so that both versions can be used. Second, it may be a dying rule, but ‘African-American’ used as an adjective needs a hyphen. Third, it is actually still common practice to use the hyphen even in the noun, let alone the adjective, and just because Wikipedia does not always do so doesn’t mean that we should change every occurrence that accords not just with standard practice outside of the encyclopedia, but also traditional grammar. So I am reverting your hyphen removal again. If you have an argument I haven’t addressed here, please add it below before you make the change again.

[edit] What your forgot to say?
The Bankhead HWY area is Atlanta's most infamous Ghetto also known as Police zone 3. It's not anything glamorous. This area has some of the highest crime rates in the entire city.
