Steele also says this:

"The black shame of inferiority (the result of oppression, not genetics) cannot be overcome with anything less than a heroic assumption of responsibility on the part of black Americans. In fact, true equality--an actual parity of wealth and ability between the races--is now largely a black responsibility. This may not be fair, but historical fairness--of the sort that resolves history's injustices--is an idealism that now plagues black America by making black responsibility seem an injustice."

IMO- calling people "black" or "African American" is racist and until that stops- racism will continue.

However- there are so many people, of all all skin types and along all political lines, who benefit from segregating people into groups.
