The CIA selling, indirectly or somewhat directly, crack cocaine into black neighborhoods is believable to me. There's a long history of our government doing really shady shit to sell guns, make profit, and topple foreign governments and this fits the bill.

That said, at worst, I think the gov't didn't care because it was poor black communities, mostly being affected. I still don't think that the USG had some sort of master plan to sabotage black communities by introducing crack cocaine into them.

I think that people care more about themselves than they do about racism or racial purity and stuff like that. Take slavery for example. Obviously, it was totally morally reprehensible, but it was more about rich landowners wanting to make money than oppressing black people.

Point taken about Jim Crow. I don't know what redlining is. If you're taking about drawing congressional districts so as to minimize black peoples' voting power, I think that's, again, just about people trying to stay in power than it is master plan to oppress black people.

I'm on my phone now and can't check it out. Have you ever travelled extensively outside of the us? Because in my experience the us is the least racist country I've ever been to (maybe excepting Canada).
