Those conditions were already in place long before LBJ got there. The neglect, violence, and blight taking place in urban, majority-Black ghettos was in place long before then. The difference between then and now is that now, Black people who have the means to get out can get out, and stay out.
So true and I did “escape” this BS. And no, the only person that keeps YOU in a ghetto is yourself.
Yes, it takes work to pull away from the ghetto’s gravitational pull, but with some hard work and doing the right things, anybody can break away…. And no, it doesn’t make you a “sell out,” an “Uncle Tom” or a “House Negro.” These are terms used BY OUR OWN PEOPLE to shame people for making something of themselves.
Yes, Whites, Hispanics and Asians can be violent as well, no doubt, but unfortunately, Black Americans have mastered the art of self destruction. As descendants of African slaves, “we” are the number-one cause of death of our own young Black men… And you can’t blame the Whites for this one since “we” screw our own selves on this one.
If you think differently, please tell us how the “White Man” commands you to kill another person of Color? Are “we,” as a people, that weak minded to be “controlled” by others or are “we” masters of our own destiny?
It’s a shame that in places like Chicago, with its solid core of Black Leaders, they allow this level of violence to happen to anybody, regardless of Color.
Btw, Lightfoot is one of the Top Five worst mayors of a major city within the United States AND is a racist, at heart and couldn’t care less about law and order.
Savage beating but how come no condemnation from Lightfoot the black Democrat mayor or no national coverage on CNN, MSNBC, etc.
If the races were reverse, there would be a national uproar. Even Biden would be taking about it but since it was black on white, not a peep from them.

Ever heard of "The Black Wallstreet"? I look back and desegregation maybe wasn't the best thing for us. Dr. King had a dream, but it's still a dream...Because Whites still discriminated against Blacks for employment. They still do. So we're basically still segregated. Most schools still are.

Lets be honest- how ignorant do you have to be if your white, to be near such a group? Yes I stereotype. Its not granpas fault its not lbj or reagan, its savages
There's no outrage or media coverage because this is the new normal in Chicago.
I think everyone should get a gun and clean the streets since our Mayor won't let the police do it. Seriously. Just shoot these mofo's until they die. Don't care anymore.

But that is considered racist....you can't be that way in today's woke society.
Why is race relevant at all? Criminals are criminals. Why treat this as some kind of reverse discrimination?
Race is relevant because the Left tells us about race and racism everyday. The point is that they only care when it goes one way but when there’s racism going the other way, they are silent or complicit.
