"see how Fair Minded™ I am!"
-another story entirely, lol.
Predictably, whitey and his sympathizers would prefer to ignore the bull in the china shop. What we have to do, you see, is produce so many teacups that the bull can't possibly destroy them all. Besides...if you point at him, it might make him angry.

Once nothing more can be done about the oppression, maybe we can tell what any problems that are left are about.
The amount of white oppression hindering African Americans should be 0%. And then the country would still owe them for keeping them down so long. Justice is about redressing wrongs. We have a hell of a long way to go before things are square.
