What's Happened to Blacks in the 1980s?

In 1990, a journalism found that Portland banks were granting loans to black Oregonians at roughly one tenth the rate they were granting them to white people. An investigation revealed that the local Portland police had been running over possums and leaving the corpses in front of black owned restaurants. For much of the 1980s and 1990s, Portland became known in the punk community as a haven for neo-Nazi skinheads.
