Facts and truth. I agree. I would like to say that since equality has failed in America. I don't blame black Americans for using the moniker we built this country and to exclude many other groups out of the picture.

Is that what African Americans mean to do ? I never got the perception at all that blacks mean to exclude anyone else. I think they are reminding and Infact teaching others of tbeir contributions. Since their story is largely over looked. They have been here from the beginning of the US, before all the waves of other immigrants.

Blacks are only 12% of the population and are over-represented. Asians contribute way more to society but don't have that kind of "entitlement".

Maybe we can all agree that our founding fathers "built" this nation? Sure, everyone kicked in at some point but it's the dudes that wrote and signed the declaration of independence that did the really hard work (even if it wasn't actual physical labor).
