“Is it within the capacity of black Americans to make it in this society without the special favors variously called racial preferences, quotas, affirmative action and race-sensitive policies?”
It’s frustrating that we even have to ask such a question. Of course, it’s within the capacity of black PEOPLE to do as well as anyone else. But the current so-called black CULTURE discourages it.
Before the end of segregation, many cities had thriving black societies, proof positive that they could do it. The whiners who say it can’t be done without special favors really need to see things like the documentary on the Pittsburgh Hill District.

The whiners or their enablers are usually the ones picking the citizens pockets.
I work with many capable people of all races, many have expressed their frustration being grouped or labelled by pols out to line their (pols)coffers.
Many are also, as expressed elsewhere on this thread, embarrassed that co-workers think they have their position only through AA.
