So for tertiary education a 78, 22 split where http://quickfacts.census.gov/qfd/states/00000.html says the US population is 77.7% white.
Me thinks that the author may wish to read up on the concept of statistics.
Is there still a legacy? Well given my grandparents were adults, indeed birthing my parents by this point, during the US Civil Rights Movement and basic stats/logic (have your grandparents ever got you a job? Supported your education?.... or indeed basic grandparent hypothesis in evolution) then it is all but certain. Likewise it may take quite some time to even out -- most of the wealth creation would have happened in a time where safety, environmental concerns, the need to provide pensions... (all expensive gigs, though still ones that probably want to be put ahead of pure profit) were not such a concern.
Edit
Pingouin7 I must thank you for linking that site. There is some genuine stuff there but the signal to noise ratio is skewed so far towards hilariously bad (and thus very amusing) that it was a wonderful read this evening.
