Sowell and Woodson are liberal. They are anti-authoritarian. They value the individual as the bulwark of a free society.
Political Progressives are authoritarian. They value the expert under government authority as the designer and bedrock of a regulated society.

Then explain which progressive did this?
It is not the only example.
The Tulsa Race Massacre: 300 killed, 800 wounded, over 8,000 left homeless.
There were NO arrests. None. NO ONE was arrested. No one.
Actually there were no WHITE PEOPLE arrested. Many blacks rounded up, imprisoned -- for DEFENDING themselves!
Explain how the black community went from owning 14 million acres of land to sharecropping.
Explain why a disproportionate number of blacks are jailed for nonviolent crimes.
And when you tout Sowell remember that the typical black household headed by someone with an advanced degree has less wealth than a white household with only a high school diploma.
But that is all imaginary or the product of progressive policies.
