What's your proof of regression here? Because the poverty rate gap has lowered in the last couple decades, same with the high school and post secondary education gap and life expectancy gap. Not much change in the average income gap since the 90s, but that could take decades to see after a narrowing of educational gaps.
I've only found pre-pandemic data, but this is definitely compelling over the time scale we're discussing.
