No, it's relevant today when African-American families only have half the net worth of white Americans. It's an institutionalized problem which must be addresses by reparations.

Net worth of what Gamey? There are many many more poor white people in the US than blacks. It is not a race thing, it is an establishment status quo issue, which includes all ethnicities\races.

I will add also, that the same point you bring up, could also apply to homosexuality. I don't know about the US, but federal laws in other western countries made it illegal to engage in homosexuality activity. The same could be said about giving reparations to gay people for being told they were wrong and treated like second class citizens in the eyes of the law. I'd say the US would have had state laws regarding homosexuality. Also for subjugating women for not giving them the vote. Time to move on Gamey.

No, it's an issue of slavery that blacks are still behind whites in matters of income. What other explanation could there be? You tell me? Are blacks genetically inferior? Or did slavery set them back?

There are all sorts of injustices in the past. Slavery is different in that it was enshrined in the Constitution while at the same time it was at odds with the Bill of Rights. Latinos and homosexuals may suffer discrimination, but we were never shackled and deprived of our freedom to leave.
