The USA only had slavery for 80 something years before we ended it, and we ended it nearly world wide when we did..

First black slaves in the US : 1619

By 1621, A black (from Angola) " indentured servant" Anthony Johnson became free, then became a land owner, and then started to own slaves (So blacks owned slaves as well in the early days)

Massachusetts became the 1 colony to authorize slavery in 1641

Abolition of slavery 1865 (and then about 100 years of segregation).

So there are at least 2 centuries of documented legalized slavery in the USA and 1 century of further oppression.

But, I do agree with all these statements :

There is no 'systemic racism' anywhere in the USA or Canada. Do you want proof?

Look at the success of East Indians and Asians.

Hard work works.

Parenting, family support is all it matters when it comes to education.

You cannot break the cycle of poverty without education.

Blacks should stop idolizing the gang culture, stop shooting each other, instead, they should start reading more.

Agreed with this..
One of their main problems is single motherhood..
Statistics for all races turn out poorly for children with no father figure in the home, and sadly American blacks these days have very very high rates of the father leaving..

I place a lot of the blame for this squarely at the feet of the left incentivizing single mothers with many children as a way to get a lot of welfare cash/food support..

And the left has most of the blacks convinced that they CAN'T and it's all racism's fault..
The perfect way to get someone to fail is to get them to believe they can't do it.. The way to succeed is to think that you CAN do it, and just don't stop trying..

There was no USA in 1619. Some how simultaneously you want the nation to be responsible for a small percentage of slave owners within it, but also be responsible before the nation even existed? Shit why don't we throw in the slaves that built the pyramids while we are at it.
