everything is just fine now

No, clearly it isn't. It isn't fine because we have political leaders within certain communities using events from centuries ago to try to redirect blame today.

It isn't the fault of slavery that black youth born hundreds of years after slavery ended have chosen to reject education, have chosen to join criminal gangs, have chosen to abuse drugs, and have chosen to engage in violent and dangerous behavior. Slavery didn't make them make those bad choices. They did it on their own. But some people still want to wrongly blame slavery from centuries ago for today's indiscretions.

During the past 60 years we've seen numerous immigrant/refugee communities arrive in America, many coming from situations far more dire than what African-Americans born in the same time period have faced. Yet we've seen these people who have come to America with no money, no education, and even no English skills be able to turn their situation around within a generation or two. What's the difference? They work hard to improve their situation today, and don't go blaming "slavery" or "whites" or other irrelevant scapegoats.
