I think whatever is now made "easier" or equal these days is to help try to undo and correct the centuries of slavery, 3/5th of a human rulings in our Constitution, Jim Crow laws and the 20th century back of the bus and separate drinking fountains and facilities and "No Coloreds Here" signs you used to see in shops and businesses just this past century right up until the 1970's, well past the Civil Rights Act!!! And the Jim Crow attitude still exists in many places and people's minds despite the Act outlawing the laws so I can't say anything can be easier for the black race. So anything a society can do to try to facilitate such a downtrodden group of people by another should be accepted and encouraged, even if it adversely affects us personally at times, until we can say every single person is looked upon as equal based on their race. It's the least we can do for such an abuse of power for so long.
