My only question to adidasss and Expletive Deleted is: At what point does personal accountability come into play.

There is a distinction between races and average income, but it's moving in the right direction. It can't happen overnight. The reason for that inequality is not modern racism but past racism. White families had centuries of generations able to accumulate wealth while African American, Latin American etc in many cases or amongst the first five generations free in America.

There is currently a greater disparity in the pay between Men and Women then Black and White.

Also on Expletive's suggestion that you can still find a handful of people who won't vote for Obama because he's Black, I can't find anyone who would say that.

ED I feel like you want to believe racism is a major problem and that is troubling to me. What type of racism have you experienced in your life?
