From 1921 to fairly recently there weren’t mobs of angry white Democrats burning down black communities, not even if helping as these days.

But black communities still got burned down And the poverty and malaise that angry black radicals have caused, especially when combined with a predatory criminal underclass, has been the millstone hung from beneath their wings (as opposed to wind).

The whole while the grievance pimps have been keeping the anger alive because it pays them well.

Disparity ... scratch it and find Left wingers.
