Like it is a new subject not thought about to date. Really!

Why is the focus on blacks only. Are there not bias and prejudices in other groups....white....yellow....brown....et al
For example, being poor and under privilege exists in other skin colors....

And why was there no such black disparity outcry when there was a black president?

Ridiculous!
