If I understand the article correctly, Sowell thinks that blacks have a highly inferior status today because they have a culture that is not suited to succeeding in modern society.
If we assume Sowell is correct about that, then my reply is that culture is not fixed. For instance, Western European culture is vastly different than it was 500 years ago.
So the question is why blacks have the particular culture they do at present. Does Sowell address this?

- woodandsteel 6y agoI have far too many books to read. Could you perhaps give me a summary of his views?
