Right, it would be true and just if it was for the same individuals. Now why are whites (individuals) that never did anything wrong are punished and blacks(individuals) that were never suppressed are being rewarded for the crimes that did not involve either (individuals)? Moreover what about races(like Asians) that migrated in mid to late 20th century?
It is farcical to overlook the role of generational wealth in preparing individuals for future success. How many Americans, white or otherwise, can truly claim that part of their success wasn’t dependent on funds that were raised from the exploitation of slave labor. It may seem unlikely but look carefully and you’ll see that very few can rightfully say they have never profited from the exploitation of African Americans in one form or another.
Iron, there is definitely racism in America today, and affirmative action may be fueling it as well. There should be definitely strict laws to not let people discriminate based on race.
Eniryt Manaen, there are many whites/non-whites that migrated after all the slavery ended, and even after civil rights movement, so should they be punished?

Do you believe there is no racism in America anymore?
