>Blacks should only be hounding whites who were here prior to the Civil War<
Dennis, the whites who’ve been here prior to the Civil War, including the ones that actually owned slaves (a minority) are all dead.
We’ve paid enough reparations, thank you. Hundreds of thousands of men died during the Civil War, and the country has paid billions in the War on Poverty.
At some point, we need to say enough. If a person in this country is poor, and especially uneducated, he MUST bear personal responsibility for his situation. If he is physically or mentally disabled, the rest of us should help him, of course.

Don’t blame me, I’m proud to be White Guilt Free! How’s that for a bumper sticker or tagline?
The esential problem here is one of personal responsibility, not race. Like those in the Middle East who pass on hatred of Israel to the next generation, Wright et al. do everything possible to teach the next generation that they have NO personal responsibility for the state of their lives.
We don't have a racial divide in this country. We have a divide between those whose community teaches, or at least pays reference to, personal responsibility and those whose community teaches that individuals are NOT responsible for themselves and their choices.
Victimhood = self-imposed slavery.
Personal responsibility = freedom to become.
Fixed it for you.
It’s 40 TRILLION in 40 years on the “war on poverty”, which, ironically, was originally dubbed the
“War on Dependence”.
And like EVERY other “liberal” idea, this one simply exacerbated the problem.
