Chris you are missing the spirit of the article, which I am not sure you get in your criticism is part of bias programing. Let me explain. While you read this article instead of absorbing the spirit and seeing the pain of injustice black people have suffered in this country, you felt uncomfortable, so you searched for some fact some small citation that you could discredit this writer. Now maybe that was unintentional and maybe not. I hope the latter. What were your thoughts about the article if you remove that one statistic? Be well
