    Agreed. The systemic exclusion of POC from benefits and advantages was rolled back just as POCs were becoming independent. It affected BOTH communities , POCs AND economically dis-advantaged equally.

    So you had a substantial population with severe economic and political disadvantages being relentessly targetted by those in power.

    Hence, the current top-1% control 80% upwards of everything.
