Beatty is trying to make it sound like the government had nothing to do with it. Like the people decided for themselves to live the way they do. He's blind to the true nature of the issue. He is telling the truth in that it happened gradually.

Commentary: Derrick Bell's 'Working Faith' for Academic Justice
When Derrick Bell passed away last week, the academy and the world did not merely lose a prodigious scholar, an exquisite legal mind and a magnetic personality. Injustice, racism, discrimination and sexism in higher education all lost one of its most zealous, longtime enemies. Diversity lost one of its fiercest patrons.
While conservatives and liberals moved American higher education in the post-Civil Rights/Black Power years to a discourse based on assumptions of significant racial progress for all, post-racism, and/or a color blind society, Bell tried to pull us back to the center of truth. When academics echoed the death or failing fitness of racism, Bell showcased its permanence. When intellectuals rejoiced over the moral overtures of White Americans, Bell maintained that they have generally only made overtures for self-interest.
Bell rose above the rest of us as one of the few intellectuals, one of the few self-identified socially responsible scholars, one of the few professed opponents of oppression who challenged injustice in his scholarship, in the community and on campus. A countless number of academics today produce scholarship as critical race theorists, following Bell. But a smaller number speak out, protest against injustice in their communities and a still smaller group of academics are willing to sacrifice their professorships to challenge campus discrimination.
