There's has never been evidence provided that would justify the claim that the differences in outcome are solely or mostly due to discrimination. There are many other variables that are better at explaining those differences.....
Read "Discrimination and Disparities" from Thomas Sowell to better understand this issue.
Edit: Somehow my comment got messed up. Reddit editor really doesn't like copy&paste.

There is no problem unless there exists evidence that the differences in outcome are coming from discrimination. This evidence has never been provided... instead it is simply assumed to be true, almost like an axiom (which isn't justified tho). That's why the US' obsession with race is so irrational, while seeming reasonable on the surface.

Might have something to do with the fact that we now have much better understanding than in the past. In the past belief in a god might have been reasonable. Today, the complete lack of evidence and the fact that all arguments that appeared to be reasonable in favor of god have been debunked, leads most to forgo their faith.

.... there are other variables that can explain differences in outcome, besides "discrimination". Not sure what you don't understand about that.
