Blacks resisted self improvement which would cause the loss of their secure position of victim-hood.
They denied the reality of success through ingenuity and industriousness, lapsing into failure. Others became convinced, via guilt, that this failure should be treated with free money, consequently enabling more racial dependence and failure.
Today racism is a mental condition of the black mind, an illness of the unconscious, causing self defeat. The WNBA is textbook.
