You're all living in the past, move on. Whites have... People today in power, and even the ordinary citizen, had no hand in Jim Crow, you're delusional.They might be still alive but they had nothing to do with that, or can't you count? Actually, more people alive had a hand in ENDING Jim Crow.Gimme a break, aside from a few really old people drooling on themselves, nobody today had anything to do with that. But keep repeating that strawman excuse, it's all you've got, apparently.To vilify all whites today for that when they had nothing to do with it just makes you looks bad, and nullifies any real attempt to deal with racism today. Most whites todays are your allies, try to remember that.
You are apparantley not reading thoroughly.
It's a fact that Jim Crow stayed in effect for 100 years after slavery ended.
And, it is also a fact that many living people, myself included, were lhere during that era and witnessed it personally.
Stating the truth is not the equivalent of vilification of ALL white people.
Are you capable of reading a calendar? Jim Crow ended in 1965. Therefore, people who were born be4ween 1940 and 1950 in most cases would still be living, and be in their 60"s or 70"s.
And if they happened to be black and ever took a trip south of the Mason Dixon Line, or even to certain areas all over the U.S., they likely could have personally experienced the restrictions of that system.

And how would you know that those who "had a hand" in ending Jim Crow outnumber those who did not? And that those who are alive "had nothing to do with it"?
That doesn't even make sense.
I can count perfectly. Some of the people in my own family, are still living and were adults during that era
