I definitely see what you are saying in that its unreasonable to ask someone to pull themselves up by their bootstraps when they are starting so far behind the race that they should just catch up. That's not what I'm advocating for. But to deny that those are the most important real issues facing the community is lunacy in my opinion. If you are talking about the historical circumstances in when LBJ inserted legislation for the war on poverty incentivizing black women to not have a father in the home to receive government money then yea that was fucked up. It incentivizes mothers to have kids out of wedlock and incentivizes fathers to abandon their responsibility. That creates a huge problem and was absolutely put there by a white government. You could say that's racist. I'd say its been the biggest crippler, that and the war on drugs, to the black community since the 60s. But the idea that America is just as racist now as it was then and is still horribly pressed with systemic racism is pure nonsense.
