They never had the opportunity to advance their life style and were thus held back which is why now they don't have as many opportunites statistically speaking. As time has progressed, the trend has been somewhat reversed but there is still a lot of racism in the world.
Thank you for pointing that out before I did. Blacks were enslaved over 400 years I think ...or was it 300 years?? Neways blacks are still discriminated today and racism is still exist partically with the older generation. I really think black people should be further, however, they fight amongst each other and just try and pull each other down....that pisses me off. I really hate that mentalilty some black people have. *sigh*

BTW I do't think they will ever be any such as equal rights in this world we live in.
