The great tradition of Black excellence went on. Progress was slower than it would have been absent discrimination, but continued in the face of Progressive opposition. Then came the "Golden Age" from Brown v Board to Civil Rights Act of 1964 (which revived Reconstructionism). — PolitiTweet.org

Nonetheless, Black progress continued, albeit it more slowly than it would have otherwise and more slowly than for otherwise similarly-situated immigrants (e.g., Irish & Italians). By the 1920s a small Black middle class emerged (that is why race riots [e.g. Tulsa] began). — PolitiTweet.org

In 1960 Black labor force participation was HIGHER than White. Black out-of-wedlock births (21%) were LOWER than White (23%). I haven't done the math, but my sense is if nature had run its course these issues would have washed out of society by 1990. So what happened? — PolitiTweet.org
