For half a century, the federal government has pursued a disastrous strategy in addressing the problems of black Americans. They were designated a victim class, and enormous sums of money were expended on incentives to perpetuate that status.
The welfare state has perpetuated multi-generational pathologies, while the encouragement of victimology and the blame placed on white racism have poisoned race relations instead of healing them.
It's fair to say the United States government began its long and catastrophic commitment to this approach fifty years ago today (or yesterday): February 29, 1968. On that day, the Kerner Commission (officially the National Advisory Commission on Civil Disorders) delivered its report (official summary; full 400-plus pages), and white racism was officially blamed for the problems of black America.
White racism is essentially responsible for the explosive mixture which has been accumulating in our cities since the end of World War II.

Has anyone noticed that when there is not a current event where blacks are portrayed as a victim, a story from 50 or 100 years ago is brought back up to continue the saga of victimhood?
The thing is this they have consistently looted and burned down their own pharmacies, apartment buildings, and stores right in their own communities and then cry they want them rebuilt, and we have done so. They over all proven in records have killed and crippled their own race, in gang violence more than the white race. The problem is they do it themselves to their own people and then want handouts, shelter, food and everything hey had before they destroyed it all!
