WTF are you talking about.

Whites’ share of the nation’s wealth is 31 percent greater than their share of the nation’s population. Blacks’ share of the nation’s wealth is 80 percent less than their share of the population.
!3% of the population is black, but only 8% of congress.
There are only 4 black CEOs in the Fortune 500
Among the other senior executives of Fortune 500 companies that provide racial breakdowns 73% are white and only 2% are black.
Only 10% of federal judges are minorities (Asian, hispannic, black).
So please explain to me why you say that white people do not still control a disproportionate amount of the wealth and power in this country?
