I respectfully disagree with your opinion on this matter. Racial inequality is still pervasive in many black people’s lives in today’s America. Here are a few examples for me having this point of view but certainly only offers a minimal amount of the mirage of racial discrimination against black Americans. Why did a black couple receive a lower valuation of their home in comparison to having a set of their white friends act as if it were their home and they got a much higher valuation. A young black gentleman was threatened with jail at a Minneapolis airport for so called stealing his own baggage that contained a ticket inside with his name on it. It wasn’t until a white woman stepped forward to tell the police officer it was indeed the gentleman’s baggage. No matter how much the black gentleman tried to inform the police officer that it was his baggage it didn’t matter. It was only until the white witness came forward to make the officer leave the black gentleman alone. I could go on and on about examples of racial discrimination against black people. So to say that racial discrimination in this country doesn’t exist is not reality.

Is appealing to unreasonable people to do reasonable things a strategy?
