Nobody is denying racism is real even with that. Racism most certainly is real.
There are certainly social and economic differences and unfortunately in America two sets of different rules for blacks and whites. I don't have to worry about being murdered by cops while interacting with them over a traffic violation. I don't have to worry about being shot by street vigilanties for walking down the street.
I don't have to worry about being assaulted for for being Asian and wearing a mask. I don't have to worry about ICE showing up and deporting me. I am white and have long since accepted that I don't have to worry about the fears blacks and other minorities face on a daily basis.
