Slavery isn't the only form of freedom restriction.
You said black people in America have been free for 150 years. That is just crazy. The Civil Rights Act wasn't even passed until just over 50 years ago. No group of people in this country have enjoyed 150 consecutive years of freedom other than Christian white males.
"...the successful annihilation of organized crime's subculture in America would rock the 'legitimate' world's foundation, which would ultimately force fundamental social changes and redistributions of wealth and power in this country. Meyer Lansky's dream was to bond the two worlds together so that one could not survive without the other." - Dan E. Moldea
