Other groups came here with money from back home? This is delusional. People came here with nothing, not even speaking English, and built up a life here through hard work.
And so did free black people, who worked hard and built up good lives.
Nothing worth having comes easily, not good families, not productive lives, not the respect of others. Whining and envy is not part of the process.

My great grandfather arrived in 1902 with less than $20 in his pocket. He worked the coal mines, laid bricks and cobble stones, dug wells and saved until he could bring his wife and daughter over from Sweden in 1905.
We he died in the mid 1950s, he had a paid for house and small acreage.

Blacks have gone backward in every measurable way since they pledged their unwavering support for DemocRats.
