Baltimore and US history of housing segregation
More than 100 years of housing policy -- from segregation laws to restrictive covenants to urban renewal to the subprime mortgage crisis -- have created a Baltimore that is segregated and deeply unequal to this day. MHP and her guests discuss. Duration: 7:57

I am simply stunned that you have a professional license.  You do realize you are posting jibberish.

Was it not the Supreme Court who ruled that SEPARATE BUT EQUAL laws were perfectly fine and constitutional?

Your comments about housing policy is amusing.  Those laws were enacted by Democrats, the KKK started as a radical wing of Democrats.  My opinion has always been that if GOVERNMENT had not interfered and wrote laws prohibiting integration, there would be far less than there is even today.

What did the sub-prime mortgage crisis have to do with racism?

There's another thread on this topic, Doofus. As for Michelle's speech, I heard a lot of it. She was speaking of her personal trials as the first black First Lady. I have wondered how she dealt with the horrible attacks on her...like some of yours. You can't even bring yourself to use her name. Pathetic, AS USUAL.

Please show us where I mentioned political parties in this post. I said it was a systemic characteristic of our entire culture.

As you well know in 1954, 60+ years ago that concept was struck down.

Plessy v. Ferguson, 163 U.S. 537 (1896), was a landmark United States Supreme Court decision upholding the constitutionality of state laws requiring racial segregation in public facilities under the doctrine of "separate but equal".[1]

The decision was handed down by a vote of 7 to 1 with the majority opinion written by Justice Henry Billings Brown and the dissent written by Justice John Marshall Harlan. Louisiana Justice Edward Douglass White was one of the majority: he was a member of the New Orleans Pickwick Club and the Crescent City White League, the latter a paramilitary organization that had supported white supremacy with violence through the 1870s to suppress black voting and regain political power by white property owners.[2]

"Separate but equal" remained standard doctrine in U.S. law until its repudiation in the 1954 Supreme Court decision Brown v. Board of Education.[3]

After the Supreme Court ruling, the New Orleans Comité des Citoyens (Committee of Citizens), which had brought the suit and had arranged for Homer Plessy's arrest in an act of civil disobedience in order to challenge Louisiana's segregation law, stated, "We, as freemen, still believe that we were right and our cause is sacred."[4]

Of course Democrats don't want to bring political party into the discussion because they are at fault.

Whenever Progressives/Democrats get caught in an undeniable problem they have caused, then it isn't THEM, IT IS OUR ENTIRE CULTURE.  That's a lie but when that's all you have, you go with it, right?

Thank you Captain Obvious.
