Times were not overall easier for everyone under segregation. You’re just looking at history through a white lens.

Yes, many forms of racist oppression have either stayed the same or gotten worse, particularly the prison industrial complex and with police killings just replacing lynchings.

But are you telling me that Black boomers had it easy under segregation and Jim Crow?
