"I don't think it's racism, I think it's economic," Powell said. "But poverty disproportionately affects African-Americans in this country. And it happened because they were poor."

I'd like to know how the Democrats attempted to help Blacks get out of poverty in New Orleans over the past 40 years? Oh, that's right, they "gave" them welfare.

And, please add, why did the population of New Orleans significantly declined over the last 25 years --- all under the Dem, mostly black, leadership --- racism?
