Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

Black Americans' structural injustice is profoundly rooted in the history of the racial superiority of white settlers. In a country of immigrants, blacks were forcefully brought in and held as slaves for more than a century on the basis of their racial inferiority. This notion incorporates the horrific disparity that separates the black and white population in education, jobs, health care, and poverty levels. It was in fact came in place to keep the blacks at a lower level of the social, political, and economic hierarchy.
