The Rage of a Privileged Class: Why Are Middle-Class Blacks Angry? Why Should America Care? by Ellis Cose

Look around the "workplace" and focus on the black guy over there. He lives in a good neighborhood. His kids go to good schools. He owns the family home and the two expensive cars in the garage. He's making good money. He's a good, law-abiding citizen who pays his bills on time. He got the job as part of a deliberate effort by the company to welcome minorities into previously all-white reserves, but he's doing the job well and everybody knows it.

What has he got to complain about?

In Ellis Cose's view, plenty. "Again and again," he writes, "as I spoke with people who had every accouterment of success, I heard the same plaintive declaration-always followed by various versions of an unchanging and urgently put question. `I have done everything I was supposed to do. I have stayed out of trouble with the law, gone to the right schools, and worked myself nearly to death. What more do they want? Why in God's name won't they accept me as a full human being? Why am I pigeonholed in a "Black job?" Why am I constantly treated as if I were a drug addict, a thief, or a thug.' "

Bernie Sanders did not catch fire because he sees class as the big problem. The black people telling white people that race is not important in things like the coronavirus pandemic, for example, are lying to gullible white people. The fact the whites elected Trump angers many black people. Trump's response is adding fuel to the fire. This is all about race. Class is a secondary issue when it comes to the anger.

Roxane Gay spoke the truth in two NYT articles. Some tried to twist her words.

A loss of a promising career.
