See:  P. Magness: "Colonization after Emancipation..." a book which describes Lincoln's plan to re-settle blacks in Central America after the War because Lincoln believed that blacks and whites, for the most part, could not live in harmony together.

After decades of reverse racism (aka affirmative action) blacks complain that they do not have equality.  That's certainly true in college admissions, financial aid, government jobs, the military, and the corporate world.  If the "African-American" box is ticked on the application, the black automatically receives preference over any other race.
Call it "black privilege" if you will.

Is it the fault of whites that 70% of blacks are born out of wedlock, that about 30% of blacks fail to graduate from HS, that blacks endorse an anti-education culture of violent gangsta' hiphop, that black males commit over 60% of violent felonies, but make up less than 7% of the population?

Is it time therefore to say that Lincoln's view were prescient?
