bullshitThere is significant discrimination against African Americans in employment and Penal System. Also centuries of discrimination have taken their toll.
Segregation was much worse then anti-Semitism in USSR.
you certainly prove you don't know the history of the USSRThere is significant discrimination against African Americans in employment and Penal System. Also centuries of discrimination have taken their toll.

I had experienced very little anti-Semitism.you certainly prove you don't know the history of the USSR
blacks are the racists and haters/etcI had experienced very little anti-Semitism.
I did experience pushback to being a class clown.
we are not stupid and gobble up the MSM crap propaganda like you hitlerjugendI had experienced very little anti-Semitism.

African Americans may be reacting to long discrimination.blacks are the racists and haters/etc
I asked the question because you are attacking someone who you have never even listened to in person. I was making a point and you helped with your tirade based upon what other people have told you.Do not try defending a man who blamed Obama for George Floyd getting killed.
There is only one reason why whites here are defending this man or calling for black people to come to his rescue.
I have no sympathy for blacks like Elder. He's spent the majority of his life denigrating blacks so as to curry favor with racists. He said racism was not a problem. But now suddenly the very people who used his words to rudely diss black peoples experiences want to declare that suddenly racism is a problem and everybody black must now all jump to denounce this woman as a racist when in forums like this, people want to shut others down for pointing racism out.
I don't know why you asked that question because for you to try telling me that Elder speaks truth further validates what I say. He speaks to things white extremists believe about black people and not to the reality in which blacks have to live. Elder is what would be called a house n word because he does the racists bidding for them wile denigrating people looking like him. Elder lived 15 years before the civil rights act.

This mornings lesson:
Life for blacks in South Central during Larry Elders childhood.
When Elder was 13, the Governor of California Edmund Brown established the McCone Commission to study the conditions that created the Watts Riots. The objective: Make sure that an event like Watts would never happen again in Los Angeles. During the next 100 days, the members of this commission held 64 meetings to find out what the cause was for the discontent that created an uprising that caused 34 deaths, over 1,000 injuries, and nearly 40 million dollars worth of damage. Governor Brown wanted to know what caused the riots, the extent of the violence, police action, the attitudes of the blacks in the community as well as the existing opportunities available to the black citizens in Watts. In short, the committee tried to find out the cause and propose a solution to a 100-year-old problem in 100 days.
On December 2, 1965, the commission submitted the report to Governor Brown. The claim was made in the report that Los Angeles was the number 1 ranked city for blacks in 1965. Apparently that ranking was based on a very low bar given the amount of violence initiated against blacks moving into homes in Lost Angeles during its history.
Mary Johnson, an African-American woman, bought a house on an all-white street in 1914. She returned home to find her possessions strewn across the lawn, and a threatening sign on her nailed-up door. She called the Eagle. Bass “responded in grand style…mobilizing 100 women to go to the house.” They camped out on the lawn and stood guard over her possessions until the sheriff came. “With his help,” Gibbons writes, “the house was opened, the belongings moved inside, and Mrs. Johnson remained in her home.”

The McCone Commission chose to deny this history or racial problems caused by the police department under Police Chief William Parker. Despite the community’s claims to the commission about police brutality and Parkers racist attitude, the opinion of the commission was that the complaints were unwarranted.
“Who was William H. Parker? Yes, he did “transform” LAPD. From an urban, western, up-south “Mayberry” police force, to a para-military organization based on his own military. William H. Parker was an urban segregationist, no different from Bull Connor or Jim Clark down in Alabama. Parker enforced racial protocols and Los Angeles’ race caste system that held until the early 1970s (some say the mid-80s, as far as the Valley areas go).”
The result was a report filled with proposed solutions such as literacy, preschool programs, improved police-community relations, more low-income housing, job-training projects, improvements in healthcare services, and better public transportation. Unfortunately for the citizens of Watts, many of the proposed solutions were not implemented and those that were, eventually got funding cuts, or they just let the program end. I have read two evaluations of the McCune Commission, one by the Los Angeles County Commission on Human Relations in 1985, the other an article in the Los Angeles Times in 1990. Both these evaluations tell the same story; that conditions in South Central were not much better years after whatever the commission proposed.
So for Elders entire life he has seen racism and public policy based in racist beliefs that did little or nothing to solve problems caused by racism yet his position is it's fatherless black homes that are the cause of the problem. He saw William Parker's racist policing, and then the racist tenure of Darryl Gates to include the senselress beating of Rodney King, yet still clings to a position that evidence shows is not consistent with reality.

you've been brainswashed like the hitlerjugendThey would not have let them leave had that been the case.
At 52 I think for myself.you've been brainswashed like the hitlerjugend
You had to go all the way back to 1914 for an example. I grew up in Los Angeles and nothing you say is accurate. Blacks weren't persecuted by cops, if you wanted persecution, you had to go to Burbank, Brentwood or Beverly Hills where blacks would be escorted out of town after dark. LAPD wasn't a paramilitary force, it operated with a far lower cop to resident ratio than any other urban police force that I'm aware of. LAPD carried .38 revolvers at least until the eighties and maybe even longer. When the North Hollywood shootout happened LAPD cops had to go to a local gun dealer and borrow AR15s to shoot back at the well armed and armored robbers. I lived in Rampart Division which was one of the worst Divisions in LAPD and I never saw the kind of conduct you claim was widespread. I lived there during the Watts riots and you could smell the smoke and see some of the fires from the roof of my apartment building. That taught me to never have sympathy for rioters, no matter what they claimed to the the cause of their conduct. Peaceful protestors are one thing, rioters are another. Watts was a far nicer neighborhood than the one I lived in.Do not try defending a man who blamed Obama for George Floyd getting killed.

I agree and it's getting worse. The way many black Americans speak, conduct themselves and their actions in the last decade have set race relations back. Latinos get sympathy because of their perceived work ethic, so they will be moving into jobs that have been given to Black Americans under Affirmative Action. Over the next few decades Black Americans will lose ground to all the other minorities, but they won't blame themselves, they will still blame whitey who will be a minority himself. Latino birthrates and illegal immigration are going to make Black Americans even more inconsequential than they are now. History is passing Black America by. You are 13% of the population now, what do you think is going to happen when you are 8% and the majority of Americans are Latinos with no slavery guilt for you to prey on? It's not going to be pretty.There is still significant discrimination against African Americans in USA.
