Here's my tribute to Ronald Reagan: "There's no limit to what a man can do or where he can go if he doesn't mind who gets the credit." Ronald Reagan I adopted this approach many moons ago in my career and came away with a great sense of accomplishment. He sure got that one right.

Completely? I'm not biting on any absolutes. But, yes, I think it's close enough for government work, as they say. Sorry, the use of "completely" in my question was a mistake. But on the issue, I don't see it that way. School segregation which grows from neighborhood segregation is the biggest issue I see. That's the best illustration to me of structural racism. But I do agree with you that economic inequality plays in. And, to go back to my mantra, the two are deeply intertwined. But, for me, we still have a very long way to go in terms of reducing inequality of opportunity based on race.
