False. By 1965 more African Americans did not have professional and managerial jobs than whites.

Explanation:

African Americans were still deemed low. They were a major target just because of the way their skin color was. Having white family background meant that you were born with certain benefits.

African Americans even if given jobs had to work really hard to climb the ladder up for success. They could not afford to pay for colleges or good living standards.
