What do you think my conclusion was? I, a poor white kid, became the scapegoat for a group of poor black kids. I experienced the poor being set against the poor with the racial rhetoric of my childhood. I feel like it has become much, much, worse today.
If you think my conclusion is that there's no inequality, and that we just need to all hold hands and get along...well, maybe that's poor writing on my part, but this was not the conclusion I was trying to draw!
