Since the democratic party has profited from racism, and the democratic party is now shown to be held liable, then why not get some of that money back? It is only in scholarship funds. It wouldn't be a 'get rich quick scheme'.One could argue that the Democrats have been using the Federal Government to give some of the money back over the past several decades. Of course one could respond that a good deal of that money, however well intended, led to further injury to black Americans by supporting programs that have had negative net results.

I didn't think of that.
I'm still thrilled with what the Reverend managed to accomplish. And I think he lent a good kick in arse to J. Jackson and A. Sharpton with this too. (throw in M. Rivers also)
