I don’t think so. It’s astonishing that segregation laws in America ended in the mid-1960s, just a few years before Apollo 11 landed on the Moon. Other countries, including some with fewer economic resources, abolished segregation much earlier. Although formal segregation laws are gone, racism in America persists, as reflected in ongoing disparities and public perceptions [1].
