Since the 1960s, black leaders have placed a heavy emphasis on gaining political power, and Barack Obama’s presidency represented the apex of those efforts. The assumption — rarely challenged — is that black political clout must come before black social and economic advancement. But as Jason L. Riley argues in this excerpt from his new book, “False Black Power” (Templeton Press), political success has not been a major factor in the rise of racial and ethnic groups from poverty to prosperity.
The Voting Rights Act of 1965 was followed by large increases in black elected officials. In the Deep South, black officeholders grew from 100 in 1964 to 4,300 in 1978. By the early 1980s, major US cities with large black populations, such as Cleveland, Detroit, Chicago, Washington and Philadelphia, had elected black mayors. Between 1970 and 2010, the number of black elected officials nationwide increased from fewer than 1,500 to more than 10,000.
Yet the socioeconomic progress that was supposed to follow in the wake of these political gains never materialized. During an era of growing black political influence, blacks as a group progressed at a slower rate than whites, and the black poor actually lost ground.
I don't believe blacks are inferior, but it is a culture of dependence that doesn't allow most of them from reaching out from their lack of success, just as it has happened for many whites.
Author contends that black political power does not lead to prosperity for blacks. DUH! That should be obvious if you simply look at africa. All of black africa is now controlled by blacks and has been for decades and yet the continent keeps going backwards. Blacks are mentally inferior and can only prosper when whites take care of them.

Obama's Presidency awoke a deep racism that had been shamed and marginalized into submission over the last several decades. Not since before the civil rights movement has it been this acceptable to openly berate and demonize people, whether they are good or not, just for being black.
It would be hard to find anyone inferior to you.
Lol you basically did what's he did just with different groups. With awareness like that you can't be too damn smart yourselfIt's amazing how so many RWNJs claim to believe in individualism, but refuse to recognize the the individualism of the millions of non-white people in the world.
RWNJs make gross generalizations about black people, and other non-whites, based on negative stereo types and apply it to all black people.
It may be true that statistically black people score lower on tests than white people, but you could take any two groups of people , based on any criteria and you'd find that their average test scores were not equal. Imagine if we were to compare the test scores of urbanites vs. rural people! Of Northeners vs. Southerners! Of Red states vs. Blue states! Of Trump voters vs. Clinton voters!
The chief fact that these RWNJs should realize is that whatever averages may be, there are individual black people who score a whole lot higher on tests than you do. So STFU!

Because their thinking has been all fucked up by Democrats.I don't believe blacks are inferior, but it is a culture of dependence that doesn't allow most of them from reaching out from their lack of success, just as it has happened for many whites.
HAHAHA. Not inferior. ?? So why do blacks do so poorly on ALL standardized tests.? Don't say the tests are culturally biased unless you can explain why asian-americans do great on the tests.

They have "hate whitey" on the brain...instead of mathematic and scientific formulas.

Yep, make gross generalizations about groups of people to protest generalizations. That's awesome.

So, you consider RWNJs to be some huge group of people, not a small number of individuals.
I guess you admit that there are a lot of NUT JOBS who have right wing opinions....
