In the Age of Obama, where white racial resentment is naked and driving the Tea Party GOP, I shutter to think that there may be a segment of the public that sees the racial wealth gap as a non-issue, and perhaps even a good thing, as “blacks” and “minorities” shouldn’t be doing too well in a time when White America is struggling.

In sum, race is the modality in which class is lived in America.
