rights and opportunities as white people. Even more so than they did in the 60s. But that is not for every case. Discrimination still exists and it 's on both sides, black and white. I am not trying to say that black people are being discriminated against because they are. While groups like the KKK and Neo-nazi exist there will always be people against black citizens. However the discrimination is on both sides, for example when a white man is shot unarmed by a police officer. The news doesn 't…
