Some of the same statements you made are still relevant today. The Irish and the Italians suffered greatly, but were always free, unlike Blacks, who continue to experience bias, as you saw in Belmar. After 38 years, not one thing has been done to enhance and bring back the West Side, not one thing. See Newark, Detroit and Watts, none have ever been reconstructed! Racism is evident in all four cities. Don't know how Chicago fared. New Orleans that never rioted, have suffered greatly, from assumed poverty, blaming the victims, so she will never have a majority Black population. Everything here is focused on the East Side, with the West Side as an afterthought. Good luck on your speech. Wherever racism exists, the people in general suffer. If I sound like I'm beating a dead horse, it's the fact that nothing has changed, even though millions have flowed through this city, with none of it going where it was supposed to.
There are no jobs open to Blacks who make up the majority here and very few businesses. So what's wrong?
