How has black people in America gotten worse? You mean to tell me you would have preferred to live 60 years ago than to
Live today? What you are saying makes no sense
You’re right my fault I was typing to fast. I meant we’ve been moving backwards since the 60’s.
We have been stagnant in all areas of wealth building or left behind completely. Compare our financial numbers with recently arrived immigrants (Hispanic, Asian, East Indian) and they blow us out the water across board. This is by design and the Democrats play a major part in that.
Do y’all actually look at our financial numbers?
Look thru these stories and graphs and get back to me. Democrats haven’t done shyt for us to close the wealth gap. Biden and his policy actually widened it.

Demographic trends and economic well-being
- “With respect to homeownership, unemployment, and incarceration, America has failed to deliver any progress for African Americans over the last five decades. In these areas, their situation has either failed to improve relative to whites or has worsened. In 2017 the black unemployment rate was 7.5 percent, up from 6.7 percent in 1968, and is still roughly twice the white unemployment rate. In 2015, the black homeownership rate was just over 40 percent, virtually unchanged since 1968, and trailing a full 30 points behind the white homeownership rate, which saw modest gains over the same period. And the share of African Americans in prison or jail almost tripled between 1968 and 2016 and is currently more than six times the white incarceration rate.
