re: #141 KGxvi

It’s a fair point. But a decent amount of the historical record has suggested that the powerful, particularly in pre-Civil Rights Era South, used racist policies to keep poor whites distracted from their own poor economic situation. They’re both important issues that should be addressed - whether individually or collectively or somewhere in between - in a serious manner. But I’m not sure there’s anyone within the political landscape that can do that effectively right now.

Agree that racism has been used to keep people poor, but until people start doing the adult thing and accepting responsibility for their racism, the economic issue will not significantly improve.
