We all (of a certain age) remember racism in the pre-CRA time frame. I can assure you that in South Arkansas there was plenty. It was shameful and bloody everyone knew it. But that shit is long-gone. More racist acts today are committed against whites than blacks, although no one admits to it. But when a black student is given preference over a while student who performs equivalently, for example, that is racist. But people don't admit it. What is called for is equality in opportunity. When idiots like Kam start demanding equality of outcomes for blacks and whites, that is, de facto, racist. As to "redlining" blacks, maybe that happens in Seattle, but I've never heard of it in the south. I have heard of it amongst drug house operators and addicts, and people with criminal records or bad credit or other obviously disqualifying characteristics. You got a problem with that?
