Being "educated" about what happened historically is also acknowledging what's changed for the better. Pre 1964 I'd certainly agree institutional racism existed, because you could point to policy, directives, and laws that were used to actively discriminate. I challenge you to find that now in Google or any other U.S. company, educational institution, or government agency. The G.I. Bill issue is largely rooted in Disparate Impact, which continues to be a gray area.
