I was alive, well and present during 6 of these decades and I pretty much plan to be around during the 7th one as well...  and, in each one of these decades...  WHITES were blamed for the problem as politicians on both sides wanted to pass laws forcing whites to change their attitudes and behaviors...  making sure that blacks were treated more fairly...  more equal...  so that they could get more of the American Apple Pie with or without ice cream was optional.

BUT...  nothing changed...  even with those new laws...

SO...  whites were blamed even more forcefully...  and then, someone decided that whites would change if we took their statues down...

FINALLY...  we have decided that the problem does not just lie with the whites but with LAW ENFORCEMENT even when under a black command structure....

SO...  during the next few years I suppose, we will work on restructuring our law enforcement agencies to make them more conducive to black folks and black neighborhoods...   while REPORGRAMMING WHITE MINDS not to see blacks as the enemy...

OF course...  blacks will be allowed to continue with their behaviors and actions as if they are not at all contributing to the problem...  especially since we have all agreed that it is the WHITE MAN WHO IS THE CULPRIT HERE...   and, there can be ONLY ONE VILLIAN.
