Why do you say this? The message I got from the posted comment was
that something has indeed changed -- i.e those African-Americans below
40 react in a *different* way from those above 40 (i.e. they *don't*
walk through Macy's in the I-can't-touch-anything way, *don't* put
their hands automatically on the wheel when stopped, etc). If racism
remained just as it was before, the younger African-Americans too
would have developed a similar set of reflexes as the author described
their parents to have developed, but they (according to the article)
have not done so.
