Stats absolutely back that up. Blacks have never been treated equally. Years of Jim Crow laws created an established norm. Red-lining trashed black property values while inflating white property values, creating an inherent disadvantage. Segregated schools created a clear divide in the quality of education. While the laws have been repealed, nothing has been done to actually make changes. You can't just say "red-lining is illegal, now everyone is equal" if the conditions created over generations won't change the property values. Schools are more segregated today than they were in the 1970s. Just because blacks are legally allowed to move doesn't mean they can. They are at a wage disadvantage, an education disadvantage, and a property disadvantage. Pretty hard to sell your home and move to the suburbs when your home is worth $10,000 and the homes in the suburbs start at 20x that value.

Levittown is a good example of this. It was illegal for blacks to live there when founded, and 50 years later it still was virtually all white: http://www.nytimes.com/1997/12/28/ny...s.html?mcubz=1

You're trying to move the goalposts. There is a ton of outrage for black-on-black crime, moreso than for white-on-white crime, but that's not the issue at hand. First of all, yes, 90% of black homicides are black-on-black (2245 out of 2491 in 2013). But 83.5% of white homicides are white-on-white (2509 out of 3005). The simple reality is people are murdered by people they know, in their neighborhood.

That comes from this FBI report: https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s...ender_2013.xls

The issue here is not black-on-black crime, it's racial injustice and police abuses of power. Racial injustice is real. Police abuses of power are real. These are real problems that need to be corrected in our society. Black-on-black crime is also a problem, but that does not lessen the blatant reality of other problems. Just because you have two or more problems doesn't justify sticking your head in the sand because the one you like to talk about hasn't been fixed yet.
