You provided “evidence” that the disenfranchisement of segregation lead to a 10 to 1 wealth gap? Great, quote yourself doing that.
I provided a whole long ass NPR piece that detailed housing segregation starting in 30s and it explained to you how the majority of white middle class wealth is situated in home ownership. Here it is again you illiterate dipshit, though I don't have high hopes of you reading it since you didn't even bother to read your own damn link.

If you click the link there's a written article. It's both. And I am Asian. Please don't try to pretend to me that Asians faced the same level of segregation and disenfranchisement or were in the same social situation because they didn't and weren't and you've again, provided no evidence to support it. Your argument runs on feels.
Those signs above drinking fountains and lunch counters read “whites only” not “everyone but black people”. Stop marginalizing the experience of other minorities.

‘A Race So Different’: Asians and Asian Americans in UVA’s History
This installment in an occasional series examines the experiences of Asians and Asian Americans at UVA and more broadly in the U.S. in the 19th and 20th centuries.
A Brief History of Asian American Racism
A UCF professor who specializes in race, culture and Asian American studies shares insight on the long-standing history of anti-Asian discrimination.
It doesn’t matter. It’s not systemic white supremacy if Asians outperform Whites.I'm not diminishing anything by pointing out that Asians didn't face the same level of discrimination and disenfranchisment as Black Americans, nor were in the same social situation, not just in regards to their situation in the US but also because they had a whole ass nation and comminity they were immigrating from. Bring something other than your soy feelings about water fountains. The ten to one wealth gap and disparity of home ownership caused by segregationist housing policies aren't feelings, those are facts and numbers. Also, you didn't read your own damn link again you ******* idiot!
‘A Race So Different’: Asians and Asian Americans in UVA’s History
But only four years before Yen’s graduation from UVA, U.S. Supreme Court Justice John Marshall Harlan made a striking comment that reminds us of the role Asians and Asian Americans have always played in the U.S.’s otherwise binary, Black-white racial system. Justice Harlan’s famous dissent against the “separate but equal” doctrine in Plessy v. Ferguson (1896) contrasts the loyal and patriotic African American with the Chinese, a “race so different from our own that we do not permit those belonging to it to become citizens of the United States,” and goes on to lament how the Chinese could ride in a railcar in Louisiana with whites while Blacks remained segregated under force of law.2 Jim Crow segregation would regularly group Asians alongside whites, yet others like Harlan saw whites and African Americans as united against the intrusion of these “strangers from a different shore.”
We're not talking about Asians, we're talking about Black Americans.
I don't care if America is more racist today because I don't care about feelings for arguments. I prefer numbers and facts. The fact is that it wasn't a lack of black hard work that created the wealth and resource gap. It was white racism and by your own admission earlier in this thread reparations to make Black Americans whole for that stealing of their wealth has never been addressed. 60 years isn't a long time. That's a lot of living people who had their wealth stolen by white racists.
what “wealth” was stolen? You think it was African Kangz who were kidnapped by black Africans and sold into the transatlantic slave trade?
The link I gave to you detailed the wealth that was stolen you illiterate moron. Being a clown with your African Kangz argument just really sells the whole moron esthetic you're going for.
What was being taught on the Republican plantation? History has shown us and knowledge has been passed down and our own experiences has shown us that Republicans were just as racist as Democrats, especially in the South.
“Before the Civil War, the Cherokee, Choctaw, Chickasaw, Creek, and Seminole tribes held approximately 10,000 people of African descent in bondage. Because those slaves belonged to Native Americans and not American citizens, the 13th Amendment did not free them.
The Cherokee National Government voluntarily freed its slaves in 1863. The United States negotiated a treaty with the other four tribes in 1866 stipulating that they must release their slaves and grant them full rights as citizens. If they failed to comply with those terms they would forfeit payment for lands ceded to the United States by the same treaty. Few of the slaves freed by Native American tribes were ever accepted as citizens of their tribes.”

Again, just another ignorant racist white boy posting racist propaganda.
What kind of dumbass question is that?
I didn't hear that weak ass argument when America was giving reparations to Japanese Americans, Native Americans, Pacific Islanders, Eskimos, etc.
You can’t “steal” something that never existed. There is no two ways around it. The African slaves were stolen from abject poverty by black African. They showed up here with nothing but the rags that were provided for them. Today they have the highest standard of living of a black people anywhere in the world.The link I gave to you detailed the wealth that was stolen you illiterate moron. Being a clown with your African Kangz argument just really sells the whole moron esthetic you're going for.
Black Americans were deprived of the housing subsidies and initiatives that their tax dollars and labor contributions paid for and that helped build the white middle class through home ownership. That's the wealth that was stolen. And that's ignoring the whole slavery thing which was just white people straight living off the hard work of Black Americans.
You don't know how to do logic or rational thought apparently. The conditions of Black people in other parts of the world has nothing to do with the fact that Blacks were forced to labor for the benefit of whites in America. The product of this labor is what was stolen you Dipshit.
I do enjoy the fact that racism requires you to argue as if you're a ******* idiot.
How does that even relate to Native American’s having to be convinced to free their black slaves? You aren’t even trying to pretend.
Again, if progress is the default expectation, what has caused a loss of progress in other aspects of the black community?You don't know how to do logic or rational thought apparently. The conditions of Black people in other parts of the world has nothing to do with the fact that Blacks were forced to labor for the benefit of whites in America. The product of this labor is what was stolen you Dipshit.
The big problem with your argument is that it starts with an If rather than any courageous affirmations.
You don't know how to do rational thought you ignorant monkey. Your argument started with a big IF.
Your argument starts within “if” too. You claim IF it wasn’t for historic injustices, blacks would have developed “wealth”.
No you Dipshit. My argument is that slavery is the theft of the product of someone else's labor and objectively that is exactly what that is you ignorant monkey. Who educated you? Jesus christ you're stupid.
Segregation and discriminatory housing policies were also theft. When we all work and pay taxes and yet some get to benefit from policies paid for by those taxes and hard work and others don't that is also theft. Black Americans were owed those same housing benefits as white Americans that helped build the white middle class through home ownership.
