So they don't want to do anything about it?

I have no idea? I'm pretty sure the only thing politicians want for sure is to stay in power.

The Democratic party has done a lot to right it's wrongs, and to this day continues to improve in that regard.  Now... How can the party of Trump shed all responsibility of our current affairs?

What major acts have the Dems done to make things right ? Keep in mind they started a civil war , forced the trail of tears, nominated klansmen, opposed women’s movement, opposed civil rights act initially. These are just the big items. Biden has a pretty long list of anti-black legislation dating back to the 70s.

Sounds like you wasted your money:

Democrats have never been conservative. The Dems were considered the party of the poor. Flawed in my opinion but there was never a platform switch. Yes two dozen or so national Democrats changed parties but most stayed in place. At the local level the Dems still ran strong in poor southern racist communities well into the 2000s. Biden struck many back room senate deals with racist democrats. Who has consistently blocked private education opportunities for blacks ? If racism ended today and was no longer a political issue, which party benefits the most?

We should go back to setting t's on fire in people's lawns.
