I think you're getting downvoted since the lead paragraphs of your link don't support your claims. Was there a part you were referring to specifically? "New data from the 2019 Survey of Consumer Finances (SCF) show that long-standing and substantial wealth disparities between families in different racial and ethnic groups were little changed since the last survey in 2016; the typical White family has eight times the wealth of the typical Black family and five times the wealth of the typical Hispanic family."

Yes but by decades it is improving and if you look at the charts there have been huge strides since the 60s that have brought black Americans into the same income distribution as all other ethnicities other than indigenous. It also clearly proves their “black/native and everyone else” wrong since it says Hispanic ethnicities are also not catching up all that fast. The narrative that we’re just not improving the lives of black Americans is unhelpful and incorrect. Id agree about natives, but there’s a lot less discussion around then (which is sad to say the least.)
