You are literally a cartoon character on here. Over the top moronic but highly entertaining if that is what you are going for FauxChic.So you call out the racial divide by doubling down on xenophobia? This place cracks me up.all this talk about conservative vs liberal, republican vs democrat, black vs white, etc has distracted us from the real danger facing the USA--------------the Muslim jihad.
Islam is on a 100 year jihad to take over the entire world, by destroying countries from within, by planting sleeper cells in the top levels of governments (Omar and Tlaib). then gradually getting more muslims in government by creating muslim enclaves in congressional districts (duh, Omar and Tlaib).
You women think masks are difficult to deal with, try an abaya or a burka. Wake up america, or you will wake up to sharia law.
forget the partisan bullshit and understand the real danger. Divide and conquer works, Act now.
I just proved that Corky can't find racism as an excuse for this....
With respect to the education gap, how is it that 'racism' is responsible for these areas in which black students fall short when compared to white and Asian students:
The number of days absent from school
The number of hours spent watching TV
The number of pages read for homework
Quantity and quality of reading material in the home
The presence of two parents in the home.
.....so he waddles away as though the question was never presented.
This is the MO of Liberal government school grads.......
A G A I N and I’ll type slowly so you can understand, everything you quoted is an outcome. Not an input. Systemic racism has led to a class of folks marooned on an island of poverty and isolation. When you adjust for all factors there is still a strong achievement gap by races. Yea poverty impacts a higher proportion of black Americans but when you adjust for it you still find achievement gaps.
Want a stark example of systemic racism? Think about the public reaction to the crack epidemic that disproportionately affected blacks Americans. Now thing about the public reaction to the opioid Epidemic impacting disproportionately white Americans. Entirely different levels of compassion driven by the race of victims.

Gads,.....you're an imbecile.
"The silent black majority of Harlem and New York City felt constantly accosted by drug addicts, by pushers, by crime," said Michael Javen Fortner, a political scientist and historian from Rutgers University who recently wrote on the issue.”

- The 1986 law was originally pressed by black legislator from inner cities who were tired of watching crack cocaine destroy their communities. The reason that there is a sentencing disparity is that crack was more easily distributable and more effective in addicting than powder cocaine. It is also a fact that the people who were distributing crack cocaine were black. The vast majority of individuals distributing crystal meth: the penalties for distribution of an ounce of crystal meth and one ounce of crack cocaine are identical, because both are easily distributable and are distributed in similar forms. Hence, there is no racial bias in drug cases.
In the '80s and '90s, many black leaders supported tough anti-drug laws. Facing an inner-city explosion of gang activity, violent crime and a crack epidemic, black politicians pressured Congress to pass these laws. The Rev. George McMurray was pastor of Harlem's Mother A.M.E. Zion Church in the '70s, a time when New York City faced a major heroin epidemic. He favored life sentences for convicted drug dealers. "When you send a few men to prison for life, someone's going to pass the word down, 'It's not too good over here,'" McMurray said. "So instead of robbery and selling dope, (they'll think) 'I want to go to school and live a good life.'"
When President Ronald Reagan signed the Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1986 into law -- the law that punished crack cocaine dealers far more harshly than powder cocaine dealers -- Harlem's Rep. Charlie Rangel stood right behind Reagan. Crack dealers, many of whom were black, got harsher sentences than those who dealt powder cocaine, many of whom were white. And Congressional Black Caucus members pushed Reagan to create the Office of National Drug Control Policy.
Then came the massive 1994 Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act, which included longer sentences for first-time offenders. An influential group of black pastors wrote to the Congressional Black Caucus, "While we do not agree with every provision in the crime bill, we do believe and emphatically support the bill's goal to save our communities, and most importantly, our children."
The black mayor of Baltimore, Kurt Schmoke, said: "I believe the crime bill ... is part of the answer, and the crime bill should be supported by us. We do need to send a signal throughout our communities that certain types of activities will not be tolerated, that people will be held accountable and that if there is evil manifested by actions taken by individuals who choose to prey upon our residents that that evil will be responded to quickly and correctly." The majority of the Congressional Black Caucus supported Congress' final bill. President Bill Clinton signed it. Hillary Clinton defended the crime bill a couple years later, saying that these laws were necessary to combat "superpredators" -- a comment that came back to haunt her during the 2016 presidential campaign.
