The story that is told during Black History Month is one of Triumph; The system of Racial Caste is dead and buried. Suggestions to the contrary are frequently met with shock and disbelief.

The Fact that some African Americans have experienced great success does NOT mean that something akin to a Racial Caste System no longer exists.
