One of the tragic aspects of slavery in America was that families of African-American slaves could be broken up at will by the slave owners, who might sell some members of the families while keeping others.

During the 1970s, white American incomes experienced stagnation and decline, which hindered many families' ability to achieve the American Dream, characterized by home ownership, higher education, and financial stability. This economic struggle was compounded by rising living costs, leading to increased financial stress. In contrast, African American families faced even greater challenges, as systemic racism and discrimination limited their access to well-paying jobs and economic opportunities, resulting in significantly lower incomes and a widening wealth gap.
