And no living black person was ever a slave.
But here's what white people...yes, all so called "white" people, refuse to accept or understand or believe, whether they are rich, poor, or in between: All white people benefit from institutional, structural, systemic white supremacy whether they know it or not, whether they want to or not.
Conversely, all black people -- every last one of us --rich, poor or in between, STILL suffer because of white supremacy.
No? Ask any of your "liberal" to "radical" white friends if they would trade places with any black person.
