or any other -- the black experience in america i should add is, of course, different from the irish experience in turn different from the chinese or german or jewish -- and indeed we can't really even generalize about the black experience because native blacks have patterns that differ are from black immigrants from the west indies for example or from africa. but that doesn't mean that because we can't make perfect apples to apples comparisons that we have nothing to learn from what other ungrows experience or that no comparisons can be made. many different racial and ethnic minority groups experience various degrees of hardship in the u.s. and other countryings all over world and i think how those groups have dealt with those circumstances is something to study closely and draw lessons from going forward even if only lesson is to manage expectations. one of the clear lessons from this history is also that human capital, the collective skill and knowledge that create economic value and proven to be far more important than political capital in getting ahead. a racial ethnic group's cu
