You'll take wisdom from a couple of people that say what you want to hear and ignore everything else.

Lol. You presented me with a youtubez and amazon book links. That's not presenting me with data or "science". Telling me to educate myself isn't presenting me with data or "science" either.

Lol. I had a simple question. Show me the science behind how you know racism/sexism was a problem that needed to have attention to it in the 60s but is no longer a problem that we should pay attention to.
I didn't ask you this question. You jumped in on your own. Just because I don't want to talk to you about something completely different has no bearing on whether I'm educated or not on these issues (although, given your use of random celebrities and youtubez, I feel safe in assuming I know a lot more about these issues than you do).
As a side note, the reason I kept my initial question so focused and simple is because I've done this dance many-a-times. And it always involves a bunch of people like you avoiding the issue and going on random tangents.
TheGodson made his claim that the left ignores science. I'd like to explore that.
