>>What some seem to have forgotten about the past they remember so fondly is it was a great place to be a white male. It wasn't a great place to be black. It wasn't a great place to be a woman. Some things have gotten better.

>True, it wasn't utopia. And what many, particularly on the left, have forgotten, is that not ALL white people are rich. My family came from the farm, where they worked in the fields - sharecropping. The only difference between them and the blacks, was they could use the white restroom and drink from the white fountain. Otherwise, they were just white trash.


You've left out one of the most important differences--the quality of schools. While I suspect even the white schools (in what I'm assuming was the South) weren't anywhere near as good as their counterparts up north, they still got the lion's share of funding and thus, were able to offer a lot more than the black schools.
