 This chasm created by fundamental difference in experiences, and knowledge bases and vastly differing perspectives of blacks and whites in many areas also points to an even broader problem  the susequent raft of misconceptions, silliness and outright racist crap that makes its way into the articles treating black people on Wikipedia.  No matter how jaded one is, how accustomed to such appalling ignorance, it's disconcerting and downright disgusting.  Not many folks have the patience for it  and I'm fast losing what little I possess.  Most black folk I know  myself included  do not have as their raison d'etre correcting the various and sundry racist misconceptions, presumptions and assumptions of white folks.  As a matter of fact, we prefer to avoid contact with the most backwardly ignorant of you as much as humanly possible
