Far too much is made of redlining. There are other much more significant things that have held the black community back in recent decades, like too little focus on education and fatherless/broken homes, that get much too little attention because they don't offer a convenient scapegoat. These things have not been imposed on the black community, any more than they would have been imposed on other relatively impoverished and discriminated against groups living in America.

Until these much more salient and impactful issues are dealt with - and they can only be dealt with by the black community itself - poor outcomes, and apparently harm to wildlife genetic diversity, will continue.
