Please note: the whole notion that
“people of color” are by definition “oppressed,” by their “white
privilege” oppressors and are victims of a structurally unjust American
society is mostly bunk. Scholar Thomas Sowell studied these issues years
ago and found that there were “people of color” whose success rates
exceeded those of whites. Asian-descended (India, Japan, China, etc.)
Americans on average had higher incomes and higher academic performances
than whites. Some oppression!
Sowell also found that among our
black population, those who were the children of immigrants from the
Caribbean or elsewhere had markedly higher incomes and academic
performances than native-born ones. The former were never taught that
they were the hopeless, despairing victims of Open Source’s evil racist
society, and saw America as it is: a land of opportunity. They seized
that opportunity. Good for them!
