When I said multiply it for generations, I was not implying that it has been told for generations...I was saying that it had been happening for generations. From slavery to Jim Crow and beyond, there were many, many generations who were denied almost everything because of their color. That's what I meant when I said take the frustration you feel about a small amount possibly being denied to you, multiply it by 100 and extrapolate it over generations.
It's just something to think about.
Well... to quote you. We will agree to disagree.
I take each account for what they are. Right, wrong or indifferent.
IMO... That facilitates more progress in putting old wrongs behind us and deals with present wrongs for what they are.

I'm always willing to agree to disagree, but I am genuinely confused as to what we are disagreeing about. Are we in disagreement over whether multiple generations faced widespread exclusion and discrimination due to race?
