We're not equal and free and we don't need condescending white people, who don't or refuse to understand our struggle, telling us what our reality is actually like, for one. (I don't know your race, but using "the black community" like that makes you sound outside of it. If I'm wrong I apologise, but beg you to reevaluate your assumptions.)
It's ammo because it's a common point in white supremacist rhetoric and speech. It perpetuates, deepens, and galvanizes white supremacy through a minimization and erasure of its actual effects. It's like European colonialists preaching their "civilizing" mission to their dominated subjects in the 19th century, it's a method of justifying and entrenching the status quo.
When that status quo is eventually questioned and threatened by the oppressed, the fringes of the dominant faction of society are more easily able to radicalize themselves, justify violence, and attack dissidents because of the oppressed's marginalization and dehumanization. All through the proliferation of racist rhetoric and discourse.

This idea that blacks are the only ones holding themselves back makes my blood boil. I live in Chicago. The areas around here that are struggling (mostly west & southside) don't get any substantial investment, the people are disfranchised. Oh your neighborhood is starting to look better, or we want it to get "better" our way? Have some gentrification. Now you can't afford to live here anymore. There's literally a systematic effort to contain the violence to certain areas in this city. The goal is to contain or force them out. No economic development, employment is difficult, many of these kids don't have fathers and their moms are working multiple jobs. Chicago public school system is failing. 1 and 4 black students go to school thats failing them. 2 out of 25 for hispanics. 2 out of 100 for whites.
