The titanic achievements of America’s civil rights movement refute claims by the Left that the country remains “systemically racist.”

It is a measure of the moral and intellectual decrepitude of the Left in the United States that it has in recent years been attempting to depict one of the great triumphs of American democracy, the civil rights movement, as an abject failure.

For centuries, a deep vein of racism flowed through the national fabric—legally, commercially, and socially. Despite the end of slavery in 1865, blacks were still largely denied the benefits of citizenship. In many states they were effectively disenfranchised, their children consigned to grossly inferior schools. More than 4,000 blacks were lynched between 1880 and 1950. Cadillac dealers wouldn’t sell to black customers. In 1940, Hattie McDaniel, nominated for an Academy Award for her role as Mammy in Gone With the Wind, had to sit at the preceding banquet at a separate table, in the back of the room. The highest-ranking blacks in the United States Navy were wardroom stewards.

After World War II, this began to change, slowly at first. In 1947, Jackie Robinson became the first black player in modern Major League Baseball. The following year, President Truman desegregated the armed forces. In 1954, the Supreme Court unanimously ruled that separate facilities are inherently unequal.
