The obstacle blacks face is complicated as it's causes are many. Coming out of slavery with basically no exercisable rights and no quality education or opportunities for most. The funk from over a century can settle into a people pretty deep after so many generations born and bred in utter and forced poverty. With integration came the closing of virtually all of the black business centers in their neiborhoods as big business swallowed up mom and pop's stores and such. That coupled with easy loans to immigrants like Korean Americans and Indian Americans and Latinos (in some States). The Civil Rights Movement is widely considered tobe the pivitol moment for blacks when it started. American racism did not just end the day Dr. King died, it has been a slow gruelling process to purge the cancer ( depending on who you ask ). Programs like welfare and project housing were designed to keep impoverished people lazy and to break up famolies by forbidding women to have men in the home or they would surely be cut off. Many black men who could not obtain employment simply gave up and left their families. "Hell at least they can eat" became a commonly used phrase as this practice became widespread. As a result of the destruction of the black family the community has broken down over the past few decades as I said it hasn't been that long and were talking over four hundred and fifty years of oppression. All in all, It is a complex problem that has yet to show promise of being rectified any time soon. Racism (by it's dictionary defenition) is the root cause of all of these issues and still needs to be addressed with real solutions if there is to be progress in the black community SO I GUESS THE ANSWER IS YES.

I'm always facing obstacles - I've learned to accept them though...
