Black-owned firms thrived under Jim Crow. After Jim Crow, black-owned firms had to compete with white-owned firms and lost in basically every industry. Who runs most of the businesses now in black areas? Asians (including Indians) and Arabs,. Funnily enough, the richest of those populations migrate to America and take advantage of government grants and low-interest loan programs that were originally only intended for black Americans. They set up shop in black communities, gouge the fuck out of blacks, and make a killing doing it.
Similarly, after school desegregation, the number of black teachers dropped dramatically. Liberals today argue that the teaching profession is too white and blacks need teachers that look like them to thrive academically. Interesting.
Historically the North and South have generally had the same outlook on race, but Northerners (namely WASPs) have a standards of decorum to masquerade their in-group preference. Northerners that advocated for various pieces of federal legislation viewed them as things that would only apply to the South. To this day, Northern schools are much more segregated than Southern schools. This isn't a controversial view, in fact many liberals have written about it.

Massachusetts schools don't teach that the state had the first segregated transportation (rail cars, specifically) in the country's history. Many Northern restaurants and landlords wouldn't service blacks.
Hell, forced busing was arguably more controversial in the North than the South. It led to many protests, but many of the whites protesting against it put on a facade to publicly pretend it wasn't about race.
