It is not surprising there is a legacy of problems related to economics. just plain money. If you came here as a slave. you did not come with any relatives in the old country who could send you money. any relatives who could make arrangements with relatives already living here to take care of you for a little while. If you did not have relatives. some group. other immigrants who came. they found someone here. We were not immigrants. but the immigrants who came. they found someone here they could relate to. Whether they were relatives or not. if they came from the old country. they helped. So those people were relatively rich compared to slaves. who were deliverately torn from their tribes and torn from their ethnic backgrounds.
