Maybe Sowell's documentary explains the difference here (midway through the long documentary).

It also goes into lots on the Scottish immigration, despite the title.
...and how maybe my Scottish ancestors and other 'rednecks' were the antecedents of today's gangsta types...
May well be true, though; after all, the Highlander Scotchmen my folks came from were the 'Reivers'...
