I'm going back to the 1900s and even earlier to justify the point that the United States was made in the image of white men. The passage of the 19th ammendment didn't undo the civilization that was built in the 100 preceding years.  

The passage of Voting Rights Act of 1965 didn't give blacks and other minorities the 189 years of agency that they missed out on when it came to the direction of the country. 

The Fair Housing Act of 1968 didn't go back and restore the wealth accumulation missed out on by black families because of fundamentally unfair lending practices.

The Fair Sentencing Act of 2010 didn't go back and restore lost years for people who languished in jail due racial bias in the judiciary. 

Again, good talk, but honestly I'm putting more into this conversation than I'm getting out of it. 

May I ask if you are currently enrolled at a College institution in the US or have been so recently?

I am in one right now in Canada, and I'll tell you that the majority of the people are capitalists that support free market economies, so it's not the leftist place that so many people stereotype universities to be.
