You are absolutely correct, equaviator.
Sometimes reality is just that...stark reality. Black society obviously needs to improve itself in a big way.
Most inner-city black males expect their lifespan to be shorter than 25 years.

You have to intentionally bias the algorithms until they become Al-Gore-Rhythms to not offend anyone...

Google uses math to come up with these images. Math was invented by white males and is racist.

Google uses math to come up with these images. Math was invented by white males and is racist. Arabs invented Math, and we all know how racist towards Blacks Arabs are.

It’s not Google’s fault. I would place most of the blame on a corrupt political system that cultivates criminality and immoral behavior among certain racial and ethnic groups.
