So you're saying Jews and Asians came here and tapped into the wealth generated by black slaves? I am talking about Jews and Asians who have come in in the 20th century, with nothing but the clothes on their backs and fleeing either religious or political persecution.

And now you're claiming that Jews and Asians haven't contributed? (Only blacks have contributed, eh?) Members of both these minorities have made contributions well in excess of their proportion in numbers.

And my entire response was based on your claim that blacks have been left "dangling in the wind" as if there haven't been programs designed to help them - and give them advantages above whites. Blacks are not the oppressed victims you keep wanting to paint them as. Most are middle class.
