For some of our population, the green line has been in a very rough place for a very long time. If anything it's only gone up for some people since WW2, despite recent setbacks. Still a long way to go, but I have a feeling there are more than a few families who are looking out at the US in disarray right now and shrugging because it's always been like this for them.
Well, it did look like things were getting better. The civil rights act was a move in the right direction, and then you had diversity initiatives and you could be excused for thinking that things would actually be better. And then Reagan stepped in and started undoing all the wins, focusing first on breaking Unions and Labor rights, which hurt minority most, but eventually fucked everyone.
