Translation: Anytime anyone says blacks are not victims of whites, they are racist. It boils down, in your mind, to that.
All blacks are not victims of all whites. White racism (which is not inclusive of all whites) created racial socioeconomic inequality. Socioeconomic racial inequality of blacks, was created by an outside force acting upon blacks. It did not come from the NATURE of blacks
Ask the liberal Mecca that is San Francisco, the taxes and cost of living is so high, the average person who works in San Fran cannot afford to live there.That city is the epitome of the stark contrast between the haves, and the have nots. Liberal policies have turned the streets of that city into a sewer.
I'm guessing you don't know much about geography. San Francisco is a very small land area with over 850,000 people trying to live there. So many people want to be in San Francisco due to the presence of the tech industry and land is so small, the cost of housing has rapidly shot up. Not enough room to build in San Francisco. Gentrification has taken place. When the demand for living in a place outstrips the supply of land and housing, gentrification takes place.
In summary, after reading many peoples opinions, I think I figured out what many white folks want to happen. What they want is a change in the official definition of racism so that its excludes their reasoning from fitting the definition. I have noticed that regardless of how much they infer or imply racial inferiority of blacks.....they do not see that as racism. I think the only thing they see as racism is to hate black people and if they do not hate black people, they do not understand why they are being called racist. Their opinions are largely based upon statistics...and to them, statistics can't be racist. Maybe not....but what shaped the statistic might be.

It's actually quite a bit more complicated than that. A lot more.
...When Conservatism promotes the sustaining and continuance of "white nationalism"... then it is not supported by blacks, nor the liberal minded whites in society who stand for and stand behind the promotion of human equality.

As writer Dinesh D'Souza has shown, many, maybe even most, of the 'white nationalists' have roots in progressive identity politics, not conservatism. Jason Kessler, who organized the Charlottesville, VA rally last year, was far-left and originally involved in 'Occupy Wall Street.' A surprising driving force behind 'white nationalism:' progressive identity politics.

You don't need that qualifier 'which is not inclusive of all whites.' Remember? When you say 'whites' it could mean anything--2 whites, some whites, or all whites. No qualifier needed, right?

Please show me the post where anyone says it did? The majority of posts I am seeing in response to your premise is that while blacks were brought into this country under bad circumstances, NOW they have no one to blame for their bad circumstances but themselves.
I also don't understand why we aren't discussing how black activists (Jesse Jackson comes to mind) prey on the black community for their own benefit. Shouldn't the leaders in the black community be working to solve these problems instead of enriching themselves?

Sometimes a teacher has to teach down to the level of the least smartest kids....so that everyone can "Get It". Hence, I added that for the "slower" students in the audience.
