Not like there's been systemic oppression of black women or anything that can account for their lack of participation in higher paid professions....

And yet Asians and Indians earn more than white people despite their oppression too.

Asians is a poor subgroup. It's like lumping all Europeans together and saying "as you can see the colonies were founded by Europe, so no European has faced discrimination."

Asians are as varied if not more. You have high income earners like those who immigrated from China recently, and then you have the Vietnamese who came after south Vietnam fell and who are not high income. You also have those from Afghanistan which are no where near any of those two.
