Right. So you agree that white people shouldn't currently get more than minorities, and therefore minorities should be raised up to an equal level with their white counterparts.

Listen. I know this may be hard to understand so bear with me.

There are probably the same amount if not more poor white people in the world as African-Americans.

You will say but nuh uh look at average wealth yadda yadda. Yeah average. Median etc. There are more White people. And there are probably more poor white people. Maybe there is 5% wealthy white people and only 1% wealthy African-Americans, but down to numbers that is how it likely comes out.

There are probably rich African-Americans who have slave ancestors. There are probably poor white people that were past slave owners.

Your ancestors don't determine your wealth today nor how you are judged today.

What does matter is a economic disparity. An economic disparity that needs to be fixed across the board and spectrum. Not just for a special race. It's why I have repeatedly touted my idea of how to accomplish that. A UBI that every last person gets and an estate tax that only allows maximum of 100k passed on to each child in the family and nothing more. 100k should be the max for everyone starting out, and everyone should have a UBI. This would lessen the disparity until it averages out moreso across the spectrum for the most part.

The problem isn't African-Americans were once enslaved. The problem is that poor people have very little way to catch up to rich people across the spectrum.
