I agree that one can always try to make things better for themselves.

But starting a video saying that, "aside from slavery, police brutality and racism you guys suck" is really making it a 'black and white' issue. It's also invalidates the struggle and problems facing Blacks in America.

If I was him I would have started out saying that, "yes the past haunts us and is contributing to our problems today. Let's see what we can do now as a community ... etc."
