Mmmm.. no way Xplicit - especially in the US, but certainly not limited to the US.
Ask almost any black person - where they have been thru college or not - and listen hard. They see another side, more of action than just words.
Also.. can't say for all, but there are no "excuses" for failures. Got two particular black friends, - dunno if the first went thru college, but he will tell of what his life was like so far. It's no big deal - but obvious it's miles away from us honkeys. Another did go thru college - a doc - and on one of our corp boards. He's actually one of the most active guys in this corp - and got his head screwed on, - and, following from yota71's post - is dealing with a damned load more than $200K. Despite, that, he will say the same thing - and without a chip on the shoulder - that he has not had it easy because he was black. He was a total outcast when he was at college - tho that was a few years back now.
Trying to accept history is one thing - in reality it's different - and a long way to go yet.
