Juan Williams seems mostly clued in, but makes some mistakes

One possible mistake being obviously referencing the 25% poverty rate among blacks by stating that 75% of non-poor blacks make the best of it. This could be true, but he didn't quantify his assertion, and since economics is not a dichotomy nor linear, the statement could be simply false

Here's how: it's possible to be above the poverty line but below the median line. In fact, I fully expect that if I looked for the data I would find that a larger percentage of non-impoverished blacks than whites are below the median.

He is somewhat right about black youth culture boiling with nihilism, but again this is a chicken and egg thing. I'm not trying to brush it aside, just saying that it takes two to tango.

OTOH, his understanding of racism is simply uncomprehensive. More precisely, he's not acknowledging the massive amount of economic racism. The majority of our political policies are focused around sapping wealth and power from the poor and the populous and putting it into the hands of the wealthy. This is done in numerous seemingly unrelated ways, and it is by far our biggest racial issue of the day.

While the actions themselves are not explicitly racist, their outcomes are. Take affirmative action for example. Not having something like affirmative action is not itself racist, but it's outcome is.

Here's what I mean by income inequality



The results are obvious, the effects should not be underplayed, and the reasons for why this exists is an entirely different subject*

*In a nutshell, politicians being bought by lobbyists, using rhetoric to fool the populous, and perpetuating cycles of privatizing everything, deregulating everything, decreasing financial 'burden' on wealthy, and increasing corporate power. This was mainly the cornerstone of the Republican Party for ~40 years, became popular with Reagan, but has seeped into the conservative end of the Democratic Party as well. In fact, Chief Justice Roberts is currently gung ho about hearing a case that would effectively turn the US political system into nothing but a giant pool of corporate money.
