Despite the Affordable Care Act, a/k/a Obamacare, one group is particularly likely to be without affordable healthcare.
According to this article, Many African-Americans Fall Into a Health 'Coverage Gap'.
One more reason Why We Need to Heal.
The health 'coverage gap' is partly caused by the fact that 55% of African Americans live in states that have not adopted affordable healthcare via Medicaid. Added to this, many earn over the Medicaid threshold but do not earn enough to qualify for subsidized health insurance.

Thanks for your comment.
Whom do you think should live in Black countries? Who are "they"?
I agree with you that there are many white people who will never give up their power. But there are others who have some sense, and I always believe it is possible for people to learn. There have always been white people who are committed to justice. Many of the people who supported the Underground Railroad were white. I think the real problem is group mentality. Racism is just one form of group mentality. And, as I said, people are capable of learning and changing (although the will to do so is not always there).
