THIS is what needs to be said

But trump doesn’t think the two people standing with him are smart enough to be CEOs because they are black. That’s a racist.

How are minorities treated as equals by people who say blacks aren’t smart enough to be CEOs?

What important person has made that statement?

Donald Trump’s long history of racism, from the 1970s to 2019

And here Trump has exposed you as racists towards Hispanics too
Paul Ryan: Trump made "textbook definition of a racist comment"

Former President of Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino Jack O'Donnell says President Donald Trump has a long history of racism and is "a racist through and through."

Barbara Res, a longtime employee of Donald Trump, has recalled the culture of racist jokes that was present during her 18 years working for The Trump Organization.

Should I go on?

Yes, because as you have not shown us anyone of significance stating that blacks are not smart enough.

Every white Republican I have pressed on this issue has admitted they think blacks aren't smart enough to be CEO's and it's not discrimination that less than 1% of CEO's are black.

Can you show me a Republican who is outspoken against this belief? They may not say it out loud but they are thinking it.

And the fact that 1% of CEO's are black is proof all the rich white men in America holding the power are racists. It's statistically impossible that racism doesn't play into the fact that 15% of our population are only 1% of the CEO's in America.

Proof we are sexist is that 50% of our CEO's aren't women. But women are making better strides towards equality than are black men. I guess white men are threatened less by white women than they are black men. And white male CEO's will let a lady run the HR department but she will never be CEO. She doesn't have what it takes.

Thus the GOP war on blacks and women.

How naive/dumb/stupid are you? This is the weakest right wing argument anyone has ever made on USMB. The fact I can't find one "important" Republican that will go on record admitting he or she believes what you believe about blacks is absurd. Silly. Ridiculous.

I bet if I told you that Democrats hate Jews you wouldn't ask or need me to point to one "important" democrat that is on record admitting that. I bet you would accept that nonsense but you are trying to distance you Republicans from the Republican party. And maybe it doesn't matter if Trump hates blacks but he sure is catering to white men who hate them that's for sure.

If I could just find one "important" Republican to be honest like you Republicans are being.

I wish I could find an important republican who's as honest as Tucker Carlson

Tucker Carlson described Iraqis as “semiliterate primitive monkeys”

Tucker Carlson Was Open To A Racist President 10 Years Before Trump
Carlson, now a Fox News host, was recorded on a radio show saying that an American who said things like ‘Look, I’m a bigot’ would easily get elected.

This is Fox News. It's very "important" if you ask me.

It's also a place that treated women like pieces of meat for the last 20 years. Rich fat old white men made women blow them to keep their jobs. Fox News is the dream corporation for any Republican.

Fox News’ New CEO Enabled Roger Ailes’ Harassment Culture, Lawsuits Say

Proof Republicans hate women and blacks. Not just Iraqi's.

[sealybobo]

I’m tired of reading, hearing or watching whites and others talking this bullshit. What is a victim folk? Does anyone know? Where did we get this idea that blacks who are protesting, complaining, or actively fighting racism are pretending to be victims of something ?

Where did this stump stupid shit come from? I say it started when the Reagan administration decided to get rid of the fairness doctrine. Suddenly you had all manner of loud mouth radio talk show idiots making fact less comments. I am going to talk about somebody here and it is not going to be complimentary. The first person I ever heard talking this way was some fat white boy from Missouri. I was in my 20’s and suddenly 30 years ago I started hearing of this fat white slob on the radio talking about blacks playing race cards, race hustling, and playing the victim. Like we are pretending there is racism just to feel persecuted. As the years have gone by, I ask who ordained this tub of lard permission to be arbiter of public opinion? I was going to start off on his lack of education, but I won't. But this slob has been allowed to influence a couple of generations of whites with his race baiting and he needs to be taken off the airwaves.

In my view this slob is worthless. All he’s good for is the big turkey leg and an extra scoop of dressing and gravy at the holiday dinner. I’m sure he knows nothing about sweet potato pie since that’s what blacks eat. This vat of fryer grease preaches his racist mumbo jumbo day in and day out. He’s done it for years now. If the stay puff marshmallow was the only one saying this, no problem. But this pork belly got millions of people to buy into his message and when you examine his message you want to tell Jabba the Hut to go find a buffet, play Mr. Creosote and eat that last wafer thin mint. The lunacy of his argument is apparent and what has been just as apparent is that we must be a nation of dunce caps to have allowed this stupid white can of crisco to become tertiary or de facto leader of one of our major political parties. Yes, I’m talking about Rush Limbaugh. He hasn’t gotten any skinnier either. But look, the stupidity he birthed here in this country is so tough you got blacks repeating it to other blacks as well as other stupid nonwhite wannabes.

We have people running around telling us black folks that we are always looking for racism. Now think about this for a minute. Blacks who want to get rid of racism are spending all their days going around looking for racism so we can stay upset, mad and stressed out. How stupid is that? There are some whites who have told me that I wake up only to go looking for racism. This kind of thinking strains the definition of sanity. So I wake up every morning, drink my coffee, then leave home to begin my daily search for a reason to be miserable, unhappy and angry. It is enough to make a person commit an act of violence when some whites, or stupid nonwhites dare speak this foolishness.

I would rather pass by the amusement park just to go find that Klan rally. I would rather sell my ticket to a pro football game to go find a Richard Spencer seminar. I would rather by pass a date with a beautiful woman to go watch a Jared Taylor lecture. If I have a job, I will clock in and spend my day looking for examples of ways to be insulted by race so I can spend all day long mad and miserable.

I’m accusing the company of racism because they give me pencils with black lead, or provide black pens to write with. If I am having a conversation with someone white I just can’t wait to hear them say something racist, so I can have hurt feelings and anger that I must hold inside of me for the rest of the day until I can get home. When I watch TV, instead of being entertained, I watch TV only to look for examples of racism so I can stay angry and bitter towards all whites.

If I go to a cajun restaurant, I will order the blackened fish on purpose so I can scream how the restaurant is a racist establishment so I can leave hungry and mad. I think black ice is a racist designation for ice, so I am mad at the weather person for making racist comments. This is the incredibly stupid garbage some people came to believe by listening to the skipper on gilligans island radio talk show. This level of stupidity must be unprecedented in modern times. Or perhaps it is not but the advent of so many ways to communicate has allowed the crazy that was once hidden at home to get out into the open.

Missouri Fats is the one who invented the card. Jennifer Garner, Howie Long and Samuel Jackson do not advertise for this card. But Fatty Arbuckle, Sean Hannity, dumb blacks like Kevin Jackson, some idiots on you tube, Dinesh D’ Souza, and others advertise for this card company. The company is called race and they have a card that these people imagine provides extra rights and privileges to those holding the card. I remember this white dude telling me how I was playing a race card as I was describing polices initiated by whites that created damage in the black community that people face today. This idiot wanted to lecture me on all this free stuff we blacks get because we have this card. Now as I am black, I asked him to provide me the website and address to the free black stuff administration. I’m still waiting.

Lets talk about white privilege shall we? Lets talk about how unfair it is to let blacks into colleges when they aren't the most qualified.

The Hollywood stars allegedly joined chief executives in paying up to $6 million in bribes to ensure their children were accepted to schools such as Yale, Stanford, Georgetown and Harvard.

Sealy, it takes money to clean up the blight. Money blacks have been asking for and don't get. Meanwhile we look at massive community development projects funded with local, state and federal dollars in every community but the black ones. And it's really easy for you to use an example about what a black person did to some old white person , make a claim about how blacks are taught that all whites are bad instead of recognizing that whites have a continuing record of racism. Then you lie to yourself about what doesn't go on in the suburbs while white nursing home attendants are beating the crap out of old white physically handicapped people in the suburbs and white doctors are out in the suburbs raping little girls.

You cannot preach to us about telling on thugs while simultaneously barking about the number of blacks in prison. Those blacks are not sitting in prison because nobody is telling. So you truly need to end your sermons to blacks then work on removing that beam stuck in the eyes of the white community.

Do you think this might be the reason investors are not lining up to re-develop blighted areas?

Gosh, this looks like a fairly new CVS being burned and looted.

or here, potential employees, right?

Yep, as a Realtor and real estate investor for over 45 years, this looks like a prime location!

Eager shoppers too!

Black people I would say have taken 400 years of oppression pretty well.

Look at how since the Reagan years middle class and poor white men have taken a step backwards as far as how much they make and look at how those white snowflakes are losing it

That means they are whites men. Something wrong with white men. I'm not one of them. I consider myself different because I'm a first generation Greek. I grew up with an ethnic background. That's different from the white muts I live around. Maybe muts make bad citizens. Stupid Greedy and violent.

Wtf? Huh?

All I know is we have nailed it that republicans are racist because they admit they think the reason black CEOs virtually don’t exist is because black men are not smart enough to be CEOs.

If I’m wrong they can explain why less than 1% of CEOs in the Fortune 500 are black. Less than!

No explaining will explain this other than racism. And women is sexism. Even corporations admit something is wrong here.

And usmb white racist republicans prove it with their ignorance they don’t mind saying here. And then to suggest whites who are in power feel the same ignorant way they do.

There is no reason to be "outspoken" about something so stupid.

The liberal companies are trying to be more diverse because they realize a country this diverse shouldn’t be run by all white men. They realize the sexism and racism exists.

You think it’s stupid. Let me guess, you’re a white man is that right?

You don’t realize minority groups, women and consumers are putting pressure on these companies to diversify. The ceo don’t care about your white racist wish to keep the white power. To the rich we are all n$&&#rs. Let me repeat a country this diverse can’t possibly have all white CEOs and VPs it’s statistically impossible racism isn’t at play.

You can do that at your small companies and small business’.
No one is going to stop you from hiring all white crews. That’s your business. Publically traded companies have an image to uphold.

These cities have not been controlled by democrats for the last 50 years. Even worse for this stupid argument is the fact that if they had been, it means republicans were unable to present a vision of these cities that voters felt would work. So apparently things would have been worse if republicans had been in charge.

Now you talk about murder but that doesn't show anything since federal law allows free access to guns.

 

[keepitreal]

This is where the rubber hits the road folks. For years black leaders intellectuals, business people and activsts have tried in the kindest way possible to explain to whites what the problem is and where it starts. Whites have actively studied racism and the issues sourrounding it have also spoken in the hopes that if other whites won’t listen to blacks due to their racism, they will at least listen to them. Insead the same idiots who get to talk the loudest among a certain part of society are whining about how anti racism means anti white.

In the movie “The Shawshank Redemption,” Andy Dufrane went to the warden after listening to a full testimony by another prisoner who just got transferred into Shawshank who was a cell mate wth the man who committed the murders Andy was given life imprisonment for. Dufrane repeated that testimony to the Warden. Warden Norton knew that Dufrane was telling the truth. Instead of letting Dufrane get a new trial, the Warden started making excuses as to why he could not do it. The driving factor behind ths was the reality that Warden Norton was laundering money and wanted to keep making money doing so. After listening to the myriad excuses from Norton, Dufrane asked the question, “Are you always so obtuse?”

To me this is a perfect analogy to describe the relationship between many in the white community and us as black people. History is documented. There really can be no denial of what has gone on. And yet there are whites who choose to believe that none of these things have any relationship to how and why things are as they are now. Like Norton, they have lived in a system that has afforded them great wealth and do not want it changed. There are whites be they liberal or conservative, who have refused to take a realistic look at the issue of race. It seems people want to solve race based problems without looking at race to solve it. I do not attest to being the smartest most intellectual man. But common sense says that if a system is built on denying specific races access to opportunity, racism is going to be at least part of the reason for the problems that exist due to the exclusion.

We’ve heard all the fake news calling itself thinking outside the box. Unmarried births. Don’t take eduation seriously, rap musc, worship of thug culture, genetic inferiorty, low IQ, making up racism to get paid, the victim mentality, waiting for a handout, government dependence, special rights and more. All this is crap. So let’s step out of the real box, let’s really leave the plantation. I state now that the root cause of the problems blacks face today is due to white racism.

Any person in America has access to opportunities. They may not have the skills or balls go go get them.

Things are definitely harder for people in ghettos than they are for whites in Mayberry. What do you want us to do about it? There are rich whites who do the hiring that don’t like blacks. These are mostly small and medium size corporations. What do you want us to force them to hire blacks? Big corporations have diversity programs. They are trying.

And not every small and medium size company is racist. It is what it is.

So besides that. Are blacks starting their own businesses and supporting other black businesses?

It seems to me like the first thing a black does when they get successful is leave the black community behind.

Again your opinion is not supported by fact. We put our tax dollars in the same pot as whites but do not get the same return on our tax dollars. If we did much of the blight affecting black communities would not exist.

For the past 30-40 years citizens in the black community in Chicago have asked for the same thing. In Baltimore they found it more important to improve downtown and the harbor but not the black communities next to them. In Portland Oregon white developers are getting city help to build in black communities using money blacks put in the pot relative to taxes. You consistently think you have something to say that I need to hear because you are white and we all must pay homage to the great white delusion of how they made it in America. You try pawning of that I was oppressed and the truth you weren't. Greeks are white.

This is 2019 and white racism is still strong. That means non whites DO NOT have the same access to opportunity no matter what you believe. You can do something but whites like you don't have the balls. You know other white people are out there practicing racism in employment but are too cowardly to use the legal means available to stop them. Then you want to sit on your white ass calling yourself instructing us then asking what are we going to do about the white racists you know in business who are breaking the law.

Again your opinion is not supported by fact. We put our tax dollars in the same pot as whites but do not get the same return on our tax dollars. If we did much of the blight affecting black communities would not exist.

223,553 million white Americans, (includes white hispanics)
72% of the total U.S. population (2010)

60.7% of the total U.S. population (2017)

37,144 million black Americans (non Hispanic)
42 million black Americans (multi racial
45,789 million black Americans (multi racial)

WTF...I’M CANT EVEN FINISH, I’M SO FUCKING PISSED....

For the past 30-40 years citizens in the black community in Chicago have asked for the same thing.

AND BLACKS SHOULD BE TOO...
WHY THEY ARE NOT, IS BEYOND ME!

Long story short

Looking for data to use in my reply
Came across....

Although the American Community Survey (ACS) produces population, demographic and housing unit estimates, it is the Census Bureau's Population Estimates Program that produces and disseminates the official estimates of the population for the nation, states, counties, cities, and towns and estimates of housing units for states and counties.

100,000 million Hispanic, Latino, Mexican population, ALONE
(58,846 million Hispanic or Latino)
(36,668 million Mexican)

Add in Puerto Rican, Cuba, other Hispanic or Latinos
Another 23 million

THAT IS 123 MILLION, AT THE VERY LEAST
OF HISPANIC/LATINOS IN AMERICA

Fact Finder: U.S. Census Bureau

Now, THIS DOES NOT ACCOUNT FOR
THE 26.7 MILLION WHITE HISPANICS,
WHO IDENTIFIED AS HISPANIC OR LATINO
BUT, ALSO SELF IDENTIFIED AS WHITE

NOR DOES IT ACCOUNT FOR
THE HISPANIC/LATINO INDIVIDUALS
SELF IDENTIFING AS WHITE...PERIOD

In the 2010 United States Census, 50.5 million Americans (16.3% of the total population) listed themselves as ethnically Hispanic or Latino. Of those, 53.0% (26.7 million) self-identified as racially white. The remaining respondents listed their races as: some other race 36.7%, two or more races (multiracial) 6.0%, Black or African American 2.5%, American Indian and Alaska Native 1.4%, Asian 0.4%, and Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander 0.1%.

The respondents in the "some other race" category are reclassified as white by the Census Bureau in its official estimates of race. This means that more than 90% of all Hispanic or Latino Americans are counted as "white" in some statistics of the US government.

Hispanics and Latinos who are native-born and those who are immigrant identify as White in nearly identical percentages:
53.9 and 53.7, respectively, per figures from 2007.
The overall Hispanic or Latino ratio was 53.8%.

Based on the definitions created by
The Office of Management and Budget
and the U.S. Census Bureau,

the concepts of ethnicity and race
are mutually independent, thus,
Hispanicity is not the same as race,
and constitutes an ethnicity category
as opposed to, a racial category....

the only one of which that is officially collated by the U.S

White Americans are therefore referenced as
white Hispanics and non-Hispanic whites,
the former consisting of white Americans
who report Hispanophone (Spanish Hispanic Latin America),
and the latter consisting of white Americans
who do not report Hispanophone ancestry.

WTF

White Hispanics and Latino Americans

WELL OF COURSE THE DEFINITIONS
THAT DEFINE WHAT CONSTITUTES
THE AVAILABLE CHOICES
AND DECIDED WHAT CHOICES YOU WOULD HAVE
WERE SET BY THE BUDGET OFFICE

AND PRESENTED IN SUCH A WAY
BY THE U.S. CENSUS BUREAU
SO YOU ONLY SEE THE PAINT,
NOT THE ACTUAL PAINTING!!!

Furthermore, this is what actually set me off...

The employment–population ratio
(that is, the proportion of the population that is employed)

The employment–population ratio was 57.6 percent for Blacks,
60.4 percent for Whites and 62.7 percent for Hispanics.

62.4% for individuals of 2 or more races....
MORE HISPANICS, NO DOUBT

THERE ARE MORE HISPANICS WORKING
THEN BLACKS OR WHITES

BLS reports
Tell me IM2, how is this not a problem for you?

Since you are so in tune with your people,
enlighten me as to why, other then,
blacks we see/hear from, in the media
that condemn a wall or trying to keep immigrants out
the black community has remained silent
and don’t have an issue with taking a backseat to Mexicans now

WTF...UNBELIEVABLE

HONESTLY IM2, how can you think Pelosi, Waters and Dems
are better for blacks and the black communities?

FOR 28 YEARS, SF AND THE BAY AREA
HAS BEEN REPRESENTED BY NANCY PELOSI
AND A STRONGHOLD BLUE CITY

In 1970, there were more than 96,000 black residents.
By 2016, the population had shrunk to 43,000
with most living in public housing.
Blacks are 6% of the population,

According to figures from the 2010 census,
121,744 Hispanics and Latinos were 15% of the population
That was 2010

Whites account for 44% of the population
300,000, give or take

And, it’s give or take because
THERE ARE CONFLICTING NUMBERS
BECAUSE THEY ARE COUNTING MEXICANS AS WHITE

Districts 6, 9 and 10 are the Mission district
and the heaviest concentration of the Hispanic population

Yet, from the same report...

I found it pretty interesting,
when I read this in the same report...

Dispelling the notion that the majority of those on our streets have drifted here from elsewhere to receive free services and food,
69% of the homeless population claim they lived in
San Francisco housing prior to becoming homeless,

Just the fact, this was included in the report
tells me they are addressing what others in SF
are contributing the problems to

Dispelling...the notion

People in the community know what they see
and what they are seeing, leads them to believe
and what the city of San Francisco wants to dispel,
by the report

Believe me when I say....
NO ONE IN THE COMMUNITY THIS PROBLEM EFFECTS
IS REFERRING TO BLACKS AND WHITES
FLOODING INTO THE CITY FROM ELSEWHERE
FOR FREE SERVICES AND FOOD

IF BLACKS ARE ONLY 6% OF TOTAL POPULATION
AND REPRESENT 34% OF THE HOMELESS POPULATION
YOU EXPECT ME TO BELIEVE, OVER 121,000 MEXICANS
AND THEY ONLY REPRESENT 22% OF THE HOMELESS

FUCK OFF

In order for SF to get federal money to
‘fight the homeless problem’
these Homeless Census Reports
have to be filed every 2 years

The city of San Francisco has been dramatically increasing expenditure directed towards alleviating the homelessness crisis: spending jumped by $241 million in 2016-17 to total $275 million, compared to a budget of just $34 million the previous year. In 2017-18 the budget for combatting homelessness, much of which is directed towards the building of new shelters and expanding capacity, stood at $305 million.

In January 2018 a United Nations special rapporteur on homelessness, Leilani Farha, stated that she was "completely shocked" by San Francisco's homelessness crisis during a visit to the city. She compared the "deplorable conditions" of the homeless camps she witnessed on San Francisco's streets to those she had seen in Mumbai.

San Francisco

Back to spending...

On October 24, 2013, the Kellogg Foundation sent out a press release about a report they had done entitled, “The Business Case for Racial Equity”. This was a study done by the Kellogg Foundation, using information it had studied and assessed from the Center for American Progress, National Urban League Policy Institute, Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies and the U.S. Department of Justice.

“Striving for racial equity – a world where race is no longer a factor in the distribution of opportunity – is a matter of social justice. But moving toward racial equity can generate significant economic returns as well. When people face barriers to achieving their full potential, the loss of talent, creativity, energy, and productivity is a burden not only for those disadvantaged, but for communities, businesses, governments, and the economy as a whole. Initial research on the magnitude of this burden in the United States (U.S.), as highlighted in this brief, reveals impacts in the trillions of dollars in lost earnings, avoidable public expenditures, and lost economic output.”

The Kellogg Foundation and Altarum Institute

In 2011, DEMOS did a study named “The Racial Wealth Gap, Why Policy Matters”, which discussed the racial wealth gap, the problems associated with it and solutions and outcomes if the gap did not exist. In this study DEMOS determined that the racial wealth gap was primarily driven by policy decisions.

“The U.S. racial wealth gap is substantial and is driven by public policy decisions. According to our analysis of the SIPP data, in 2011 the median white household had $111,146 in wealth holdings, compared to just $7,113 for the median Black household and $8,348 for the median Latino household. From the continuing impact of redlining on American homeownership to the retreat from desegregation in public education, public policy has shaped these disparities, leaving them impossible to overcome without racially-aware policy change.”

“Eliminating disparities in homeownership rates and returns would substantially reduce the racial wealth gap. While 73 percent of white households owned their own homes in 2011, only 47 percent of Latinos and 45 percent of Blacks were homeowners. In addition, Black and Latino homeowners saw less return in wealth on their investment in homeownership: for every $1 in wealth that accrues to median Black households as a result of homeownership, median white households accrue $1.34; meanwhile for every $1 in wealth that accrues to median Latino households as a result of homeownership, median white households accrue $1.54.”

“If public policy successfully eliminated racial disparities in homeownership rates, so that Blacks and Latinos were as likely as white households to own their homes, median Black wealth would grow $32,113 and the wealth gap between Black and white households would shrink 31 percent. Median Latino wealth would grow $29,213 and the wealth gap with white households would shrink 28 percent.”

“If public policy successfully equalized the return on homeownership, so that Blacks and Latinos saw the same financial gains as whites as a result of being homeowners, median Black wealth would grow $17,113 and the wealth gap between Black and white households would shrink 16 percent. Median Latino wealth would grow $41,652 and the wealth gap with white households would shrink 41 percent.”

“Eliminating disparities in college graduation and the return on a college degree would have a modest direct impact on the racial wealth gap. In 2011, 34 percent of whites had completed four-year college degrees compared to just 20 percent of Blacks and 13 percent of Latinos. In addition, Black and Latino college graduates saw a lower return on their degrees than white graduates: for every $1 in wealth that accrues to median Black households associated with a college degree, median white households accrue $11.49. Meanwhile for every $1 in wealth that accrues to median Latino households associated with a college degree, median white households accrue $13.33.”

“If public policy successfully eliminated racial disparities in college graduation rates, median Black wealth would grow $1,313 and the wealth gap between Black and white households would shrink 1 percent. Median Latino wealth would grow $3,528 and the wealth gap with white households would shrink 3 percent. “

“If public policy successfully equalized the return to college graduation, median Black wealth would grow $10,786 and the wealth gap between Black and white households would shrink 10 percent. Median Latino wealth would grow $5,878 and the wealth gap with white households would shrink 6 percent.”

“Eliminating disparities in income—and even more so, the wealth return on income—would substantially reduce the racial wealth gap. Yet in 2011, the median white household had an income of $50,400 a year compared to just $32,028 for Blacks and $36,840 for Latinos. Black and Latino households also see less of a return than white households on the income they earn: for every $1 in wealth that accrues to median Black households associated with a higher income, median white households accrue $4.06. Meanwhile, for every $1 in wealth that accrues to median Latino households associated with higher income, median white households accrue $5.37.”

“If public policy successfully eliminated racial disparities in income, median Black wealth would grow $11,488 and the wealth gap between Black and white households would shrink 11 percent. Median Latino wealth would grow $8,765 and the wealth gap with white households would shrink 9 percent.”

“If public policy successfully equalized the return to income, so that each additional dollar of income going to Black and Latino households was converted to wealth at the same rate as white households, median Black wealth would grow $44,963 and median Latino wealth would grow $51,552. This would shrink the wealth gap with white households by 43 and 50 percent respectively.”

Now STFU.

Now STFU

No African...YOU shut the fuck up!

If public policy successfully eliminated racial disparities in homeownership rates, so that Blacks and Latinos were as likely as white households to own their homes,

Bitch...been there done that

Under Obama, all gains in African wealth, were lost
This wealth was gained, under Clinton

Granting loans based on income, job history
debt ratio and credit score(worthiness)
is not redlining, it’s practical

No one is entitled to own a home
unless they can afford it

If public policy successfully equalized the return on homeownership, so that Blacks and Latinos saw the same financial gains as whites as a result of being homeowners,

What, create policies forcing buyers to pay top dollar on a home
that wasn’t taken care of, in a shithole neighborhood

If public policy successfully eliminated racial disparities in college graduation rates, median Black wealth would grow $1,313

What, create policies to give Africans degrees

So, current public policy is to blame
for the rate of Africans graduating from college?

If public policy successfully equalized the return to college graduation, median Black wealth would grow $10,786

So, current public policy is to blame
for African choices and responsibilities?

So, if an African graduates college
but, has outstanding debt, expensive taste,
maybe they already have a couple kids,
maybe they chose a field that wasn’t practical...

That’s whose fault?
White people and public policy

If public policy successfully eliminated racial disparities in income, median Black wealth would grow $11,488

So, people who work at McDonalds or Walmart
should make the same as a nurse

So, Africans being limited to low paying jobs
is the result of public policy

If public policy successfully equalized the return to income, so that each additional dollar of income going to Black and Latino households was converted to wealth at the same rate as white households

Again, if Africans obligations or spending habits
prevent them from accumulating wealth
because they spend their money foolishly
or are taking care of their responsibilities
how is anyone or anything else to blame?

You want policies to give Africans loans, again,
so they can buy homes they can’t afford and won’t take care of
and force potential buyers to pay more then the house is worth

You want policies to give Africans college degrees
so there are as many Africans with a college degree as whites

You want policies that require paying Africans,
working low paying jobs, top dollar

You want policies that create wealth
because their obligations and poor choices
prevent them from accumulating wealth otherwise

Go fuck yourself African

This is where the rubber hits the road folks. For years black leaders intellectuals, business people and activsts have tried in the kindest way possible to explain to whites what the problem is and where it starts. Whites have actively studied racism and the issues sourrounding it have also spoken in the hopes that if other whites won’t listen to blacks due to their racism, they will at least listen to them. Insead the same idiots who get to talk the loudest among a certain part of society are whining about how anti racism means anti white.

In the movie “The Shawshank Redemption,” Andy Dufrane went to the warden after listening to a full testimony by another prisoner who just got transferred into Shawshank who was a cell mate wth the man who committed the murders Andy was given life imprisonment for. Dufrane repeated that testimony to the Warden. Warden Norton knew that Dufrane was telling the truth. Instead of letting Dufrane get a new trial, the Warden started making excuses as to why he could not do it. The driving factor behind ths was the reality that Warden Norton was laundering money and wanted to keep making money doing so. After listening to the myriad excuses from Norton, Dufrane asked the question, “Are you always so obtuse?”

To me this is a perfect analogy to describe the relationship between many in the white community and us as black people. History is documented. There really can be no denial of what has gone on. And yet there are whites who choose to believe that none of these things have any relationship to how and why things are as they are now. Like Norton, they have lived in a system that has afforded them great wealth and do not want it changed. There are whites be they liberal or conservative, who have refused to take a realistic look at the issue of race. It seems people want to solve race based problems without looking at race to solve it. I do not attest to being the smartest most intellectual man. But common sense says that if a system is built on denying specific races access to opportunity, racism is going to be at least part of the reason for the problems that exist due to the exclusion.

We’ve heard all the fake news calling itself thinking outside the box. Unmarried births. Don’t take eduation seriously, rap musc, worship of thug culture, genetic inferiorty, low IQ, making up racism to get paid, the victim mentality, waiting for a handout, government dependence, special rights and more. All this is crap. So let’s step out of the real box, let’s really leave the plantation. I state now that the root cause of the problems blacks face today is due to white racism.

Any person in America has access to opportunities. They may not have the skills or balls go go get them.

Things are definitely harder for people in ghettos than they are for whites in Mayberry. What do you want us to do about it? There are rich whites who do the hiring that don’t like blacks. These are mostly small and medium size corporations. What do you want us to force them to hire blacks? Big corporations have diversity programs. They are trying.

And not every small and medium size company is racist. It is what it is.

So besides that. Are blacks starting their own businesses and supporting other black businesses?

It seems to me like the first thing a black does when they get successful is leave the black community behind.

Leslee jones on snl sang, “people say I forgot where I came from. I tell them I liv3 here because I remember where I came from”

Again your opinion is not supported by fact. We put our tax dollars in the same pot as whites but do not get the same return on our tax dollars. If we did much of the blight affecting black communities would not exist.

For the past 30-40 years citizens in the black community in Chicago have asked for the same thing. In Baltimore they found it more important to improve downtown and the harbor but not the black communities next to them. In Portland Oregon white developers are getting city help to build in black communities using money blacks put in the pot relative to taxes. You consistently think you have something to say that I need to hear because you are white and we all must pay homage to the great white delusion of how they made it in America. You try pawning of that I was oppressed and the truth you weren't. Greeks are white.

This is 2019 and white racism is still strong. That means non whites DO NOT have the same access to opportunity no matter what you believe. You can do something but whites like you don't have the balls. You know other white people are out there practicing racism in employment but are too cowardly to use the legal means available to stop them. Then you want to sit on your white ass calling yourself instructing us then asking what are we going to do about the white racists you know in business who are breaking the law.

Again your opinion is not supported by fact. We put our tax dollars in the same pot as whites but do not get the same return on our tax dollars. If we did much of the blight affecting black communities would not exist.

223,553 million white Americans, (includes white hispanics)
72% of the total U.S. population (2010)

197,285 million white Americans (non Hispanic)
60.7% of the total U.S. population (2017)

37,144 million black Americans (non Hispanic)
42 million black Americans (multi racial
45,789 million black Americans (multi racial)

WTF...I’M CANT EVEN FINISH, I’M SO FUCKING PISSED....

For the past 30-40 years citizens in the black community in Chicago have asked for the same thing.

AND BLACKS SHOULD BE TOO...
WHY THEY ARE NOT, IS BEYOND ME!

Long story short

Looking for data to use in my reply
Came across....

Although the American Community Survey (ACS) produces population, demographic and housing unit estimates, it is the Census Bureau's Population Estimates Program that produces and disseminates the official estimates of the population for the nation, states, counties, cities, and towns and estimates of housing units for states and counties.

100,000 million Hispanic, Latino, Mexican population, ALONE
(58,846 million Hispanic or Latino)
(36,668 million Mexican)

Add in Puerto Rican, Cuba, other Hispanic or Latinos
Another 23 million

THAT IS 123 MILLION, AT THE VERY LEAST
OF HISPANIC/LATINOS IN AMERICA

Fact Finder: U.S. Census Bureau

Now, THIS DOES NOT ACCOUNT FOR
THE 26.7 MILLION WHITE HISPANICS,
WHO IDENTIFIED AS HISPANIC OR LATINO
BUT, ALSO SELF IDENTIFIED AS WHITE

NOR DOES IT ACCOUNT FOR
THE HISPANIC/LATINO INDIVIDUALS
SELF IDENTIFING AS WHITE...PERIOD

In the 2010 United States Census, 50.5 million Americans (16.3% of the total population) listed themselves as ethnically Hispanic or Latino. Of those, 53.0% (26.7 million) self-identified as racially white. The remaining respondents listed their races as: some other race 36.7%, two or more races (multiracial) 6.0%, Black or African American 2.5%, American Indian and Alaska Native 1.4%, Asian 0.4%, and Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander 0.1%.

The respondents in the "some other race" category are reclassified as white by the Census Bureau in its official estimates of race. This means that more than 90% of all Hispanic or Latino Americans are counted as "white" in some statistics of the US government.

Hispanics and Latinos who are native-born and those who are immigrant identify as White in nearly identical percentages:
53.9 and 53.7, respectively, per figures from 2007.
The overall Hispanic or Latino ratio was 53.8%.

Based on the definitions created by
The Office of Management and Budget
and the U.S. Census Bureau,

the concepts of ethnicity and race
are mutually independent, thus,
Hispanicity is not the same as race,
and constitutes an ethnicity category
as opposed to, a racial category....

the only one of which that is officially collated by the U.S

White Americans are therefore referenced as
white Hispanics and non-Hispanic whites,
the former consisting of white Americans
who report Hispanophone (Spanish Hispanic Latin America),
and the latter consisting of white Americans
who do not report Hispanophone ancestry.

WTF

White Hispanics and Latino Americans

WELL OF COURSE THE DEFINITIONS
THAT DEFINE WHAT CONSTITUTES
THE AVAILABLE CHOICES
AND DECIDED WHAT CHOICES YOU WOULD HAVE
WERE SET BY THE BUDGET OFFICE

AND PRESENTED IN SUCH A WAY
BY THE U.S. CENSUS BUREAU
SO YOU ONLY SEE THE PAINT,
NOT THE ACTUAL PAINTING!!!

Furthermore, this is what actually set me off...

The employment–population ratio
(that is, the proportion of the population that is employed)

The employment–population ratio was 57.6 percent for Blacks,
60.4 percent for Whites and 62.7 percent for Hispanics.

62.4% for individuals of 2 or more races....
MORE HISPANICS, NO DOUBT

THERE ARE MORE HISPANICS WORKING
THEN BLACKS OR WHITES

BLS reports
Tell me IM2, how is this not a problem for you?

Since you are so in tune with your people,
enlighten me as to why, other then,
blacks we see/hear from, in the media
that condemn a wall or trying to keep immigrants out
the black community has remained silent
and don’t have an issue with taking a backseat to Mexicans now

WTF...UNBELIEVABLE

HONESTLY IM2, how can you think Pelosi, Waters and Dems
are better for blacks and the black communities?

FOR 28 YEARS, SF AND THE BAY AREA
HAS BEEN REPRESENTED BY NANCY PELOSI
AND A STRONGHOLD BLUE CITY

In 1970, there were more than 96,000 black residents.
By 2016, the population had shrunk to 43,000
with most living in public housing.
Blacks are 6% of the population,

According to figures from the 2010 census,
121,744 Hispanics and Latinos were 15% of the population
That was 2010

Whites account for 44% of the population
300,000, give or take

And, it’s give or take because
THERE ARE CONFLICTING NUMBERS
BECAUSE THEY ARE COUNTING MEXICANS AS WHITE

Districts 6, 9 and 10 are the Mission district
and the heaviest concentration of the Hispanic population

Yet, from the same report...

I found it pretty interesting,
when I read this in the same report...

“If public policy successfully equalized the return on homeownership, so that Blacks and Latinos saw the same financial gains as whites as a result of being homeowners, median Black wealth would grow $17,113 and the wealth gap between Black and white households would shrink 16 percent. Median Latino wealth would grow $41,652 and the wealth gap with white households would shrink 41 percent.”

“Eliminating disparities in college graduation and the return on a college degree would have a modest direct impact on the racial wealth gap. In 2011, 34 percent of whites had completed four-year college degrees compared to just 20 percent of Blacks and 13 percent of Latinos. In addition, Black and Latino college graduates saw a lower return on their degrees than white graduates: for every $1 in wealth that accrues to median Black households associated with a college degree, median white households accrue $11.49.

“If public policy successfully equalized the return to college graduation, median Black wealth would grow $10,786 and the wealth gap between Black and white households would shrink 10 percent. Median Latino wealth would grow $5,878 and the wealth gap with white households would shrink 6 percent.”

“Eliminating disparities in income—and even more so, the wealth return on income—would substantially reduce the racial wealth gap. Yet in 2011, the median white household had an income of $50,400 a year compared to just $32,028 for Blacks and $36,840 for Latinos.

“If public policy successfully eliminated racial disparities in income, median Black wealth would grow $11,488 and the wealth gap between Black and white households would shrink 11 percent. Median Latino wealth would grow $8,765 and the wealth gap with white households would shrink 9 percent.”

“If public policy successfully equalized the return to income, so that each additional dollar of income going to Black and Latino households was converted to wealth at the same rate as white households, median Black wealth would grow $44,963 and median Latino wealth would grow $51,552. This would shrink the wealth gap with white households by 43 and 50 percent respectively.”

Now STFU.

Now STFU

No African...YOU shut the fuck up!

If public policy successfully eliminated racial disparities in homeownership rates, so that Blacks and Latinos were as likely as white households to own their homes,

Bitch...been there done that

Under Obama, all gains in African wealth, were lost
This wealth was gained, under Clinton

Granting loans based on income, job history
debt ratio and credit score(worthiness)
is not redlining, it’s practical

No one is entitled to own a home
unless they can afford it

If public policy successfully equalized the return on homeownership, so that Blacks and Latinos saw the same financial gains as whites as a result of being homeowners,

What, create policies forcing buyers to pay top dollar on a home
that wasn’t taken care of, in a shithole neighborhood

If public policy successfully eliminated racial disparities in college graduation rates, median Black wealth would grow $1,313

What, create policies to give Africans degrees

So, current public policy is to blame
for the rate of Africans graduating from college?

If public policy successfully equalized the return to college graduation, median Black wealth would grow $10,786

So, current public policy is to blame
for African choices and responsibilities?

So, if an African graduates college
but, has outstanding debt, expensive taste,
maybe they already have a couple kids,
maybe they chose a field that wasn’t practical...

That’s whose fault?
White people and public policy

If public policy successfully eliminated racial disparities in income, median Black wealth would grow $11,488

So, people who work at McDonalds or Walmart
should make the same as a nurse

So, Africans being limited to low paying jobs
is the result of public policy

If public policy successfully equalized the return to income, so that each additional dollar of income going to Black and Latino households was converted to wealth at the same rate as white households

Again, if Africans obligations or spending habits
prevent them from accumulating wealth
because they spend their money foolishly
or are taking care of their responsibilities
how is anyone or anything else to blame?

You want policies to give Africans loans, again,
so they can buy homes they can’t afford and won’t take care of
and force potential buyers to pay more then the house is worth

You want policies to give Africans college degrees
so there are as many Africans with a college degree as whites

You want policies that require paying Africans,
working low paying jobs, top dollar

You want policies that create wealth
because their obligations and poor choices
prevent them from accumulating wealth otherwise

Go fuck yourself African

Thank goodness for liberal policies, affirmative action, diversity programs, labor laws, unions that blacks made the gains until Reagan and the bush’s caused a Great Recession.

Turned Clinton’s surplus into a Great Recession. Then obama had to clean up the mess.

This is where the rubber hits the road folks. For years black leaders intellectuals, business people and activsts have tried in the kindest way possible to explain to whites what the problem is and where it starts. Whites have actively studied racism and the issues sourrounding it have also spoken in the hopes that if other whites won’t listen to blacks due to their racism, they will at least listen to them. Insead the same idiots who get to talk the loudest among a certain part of society are whining about how anti racism means anti white.

In the movie “The Shawshank Redemption,” Andy Dufrane went to the warden after listening to a full testimony by another prisoner who just got transferred into Shawshank who was a cell mate wth the man who committed the murders Andy was given life imprisonment for. Dufrane repeated that testimony to the Warden. Warden Norton knew that Dufrane was telling the truth. Instead of letting Dufrane get a new trial, the Warden started making excuses as to why he could not do it. The driving factor behind ths was the reality that Warden Norton was laundering money and wanted to keep making money doing so. After listening to the myriad excuses from Norton, Dufrane asked the question, “Are you always so obtuse?”

To me this is a perfect analogy to describe the relationship between many in the white community and us as black people. History is documented. There really can be no denial of what has gone on. And yet there are whites who choose to believe that none of these things have any relationship to how and why things are as they are now. Like Norton, they have lived in a system that has afforded them great wealth and do not want it changed. There are whites be they liberal or conservative, who have refused to take a realistic look at the issue of race. It seems people want to solve race based problems without looking at race to solve it. I do not attest to being the smartest most intellectual man. But common sense says that if a system is built on denying specific races access to opportunity, racism is going to be at least part of the reason for the problems that exist due to the exclusion.

We’ve heard all the fake news calling itself thinking outside the box. Unmarried births. Don’t take eduation seriously, rap musc, worship of thug culture, genetic inferiorty, low IQ, making up racism to get paid, the victim mentality, waiting for a handout, government dependence, special rights and more. All this is crap. So let’s step out of the real box, let’s really leave the plantation. I state now that the root cause of the problems blacks face today is due to white racism.

Any person in America has access to opportunities. They may not have the skills or balls go go get them.

Things are definitely harder for people in ghettos than they are for whites in Mayberry. What do you want us to do about it? There are rich whites who do the hiring that don’t like blacks. These are mostly small and medium size corporations. What do you want us to force them to hire blacks? Big corporations have diversity programs. They are trying.

And not every small and medium size company is racist. It is what it is.

So besides that. Are blacks starting their own businesses and supporting other black businesses?

It seems to me like the first thing a black does when they get successful is leave the black community behind.

Leslee jones on snl sang, “people say I forgot where I came from. I tell them I liv3 here because I remember where I came from”

Again your opinion is not supported by fact. We put our tax dollars in the same pot as whites but do not get the same return on our tax dollars. If we did much of the blight affecting black communities would not exist.

For the past 30-40 years citizens in the black community in Chicago have asked for the same thing. In Baltimore they found it more important to improve downtown and the harbor but not the black communities next to them. In Portland Oregon white developers are getting city help to build in black communities using money blacks put in the pot relative to taxes. You consistently think you have something to say that I need to hear because you are white and we all must pay homage to the great white delusion of how they made it in America. You try pawning of that I was oppressed and the truth you weren't. Greeks are white.

This is 2019 and white racism is still strong. That means non whites DO NOT have the same access to opportunity no matter what you believe. You can do something but whites like you don't have the balls. You know other white people are out there practicing racism in employment but are too cowardly to use the legal means available to stop them. Then you want to sit on your white ass calling yourself instructing us then asking what are we going to do about the white racists you know in business who are breaking the law.

Again your opinion is not supported by fact. We put our tax dollars in the same pot as whites but do not get the same return on our tax dollars. If we did much of the blight affecting black communities would not exist.

223,553 million white Americans, (includes white hispanics)
72% of the total U.S. population (2010)

197,285 million white Americans (non Hispanic)
60.7% of the total U.S. population (2017)

37,144 million black Americans (non Hispanic)
42 million black Americans (multi racial
45,789 million black Americans (multi racial)

WTF...I’M CANT EVEN FINISH, I’M SO FUCKING PISSED....

For the past 30-40 years citizens in the black community in Chicago have asked for the same thing.

AND BLACKS SHOULD BE TOO...
WHY THEY ARE NOT, IS BEYOND ME!

Long story short

Looking for data to use in my reply
Came across....

Although the American Community Survey (ACS) produces population, demographic and housing unit estimates, it is the Census Bureau's Population Estimates Program that produces and disseminates the official estimates of the population for the nation, states, counties, cities, and towns and estimates of housing units for states and counties.

100,000 million Hispanic, Latino, Mexican population, ALONE
(58,846 million Hispanic or Latino)
(36,668 million Mexican)

Add in Puerto Rican, Cuba, other Hispanic or Latinos
Another 23 million

THAT IS 123 MILLION, AT THE VERY LEAST
OF HISPANIC/LATINOS IN AMERICA

Fact Finder: U.S. Census Bureau

Now, THIS DOES NOT ACCOUNT FOR
THE 26.7 MILLION WHITE HISPANICS,
WHO IDENTIFIED AS HISPANIC OR LATINO
BUT, ALSO SELF IDENTIFIED AS WHITE

NOR DOES IT ACCOUNT FOR
THE HISPANIC/LATINO INDIVIDUALS
SELF IDENTIFING AS WHITE...PERIOD

In the 2010 United States Census, 50.5 million Americans (16.3% of the total population) listed themselves as ethnically Hispanic or Latino. Of those, 53.0% (26.7 million) self-identified as racially white. The remaining respondents listed their races as: some other race 36.7%, two or more races (multiracial) 6.0%, Black or African American 2.5%, American Indian and Alaska Native 1.4%, Asian 0.4%, and Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander 0.1%.

The respondents in the "some other race" category are reclassified as white by the Census Bureau in its official estimates of race. This means that more than 90% of all Hispanic or Latino Americans are counted as "white" in some statistics of the US government.

Hispanics and Latinos who are native-born and those who are immigrant identify as White in nearly identical percentages:
53.9 and 53.7, respectively, per figures from 2007.
The overall Hispanic or Latino ratio was 53.8%.

Based on the definitions created by
The Office of Management and Budget
and the U.S. Census Bureau,

the concepts of ethnicity and race
are mutually independent, thus,
Hispanicity is not the same as race,
and constitutes an ethnicity category
as opposed to, a racial category....

the only one of which that is officially collated by the U.S

White Americans are therefore referenced as
white Hispanics and non-Hispanic whites,
the former consisting of white Americans
who report Hispanophone (Spanish Hispanic Latin America),
and the latter consisting of white Americans
who do not report Hispanophone ancestry.

WTF

White Hispanics and Latino Americans

WELL OF COURSE THE DEFINITIONS
THAT DEFINE WHAT CONSTITUTES
THE AVAILABLE CHOICES
AND DECIDED WHAT CHOICES YOU WOULD HAVE
WERE SET BY THE BUDGET OFFICE

AND PRESENTED IN SUCH A WAY
BY THE U.S. CENSUS BUREAU
SO YOU ONLY SEE THE PAINT,
NOT THE ACTUAL PAINTING!!!

Furthermore, this is what actually set me off...

The employment–population ratio
(that is, the proportion of the population that is employed)

The employment–population ratio was 57.6 percent for Blacks,
60.4 percent for Whites and 62.7 percent for Hispanics.

62.4% for individuals of 2 or more races....
MORE HISPANICS, NO DOUBT

THERE ARE MORE HISPANICS WORKING
THEN BLACKS OR WHITES

BLS reports
Tell me IM2, how is this not a problem for you?

Since you are so in tune with your people,
enlighten me as to why, other then,
blacks we see/hear from, in the media
that condemn a wall or trying to keep immigrants out
the black community has remained silent
and don’t have an issue with taking a backseat to Mexicans now

WTF...UNBELIEVABLE

HONESTLY IM2, how can you think Pelosi, Waters and Dems
are better for blacks and the black communities?

FOR 28 YEARS, SF AND THE BAY AREA
HAS BEEN REPRESENTED BY NANCY PELOSI
AND A STRONGHOLD BLUE CITY

In 1970, there were more than 96,000 black residents.
By 2016, the population had shrunk to 43,000
with most living in public housing.
Blacks are 6% of the population,

According to figures from the 2010 census,
121,744 Hispanics and Latinos were 15% of the population
That was 2010

Whites account for 44% of the population
300,000, give or take

And, it’s give or take because
THERE ARE CONFLICTING NUMBERS
BECAUSE THEY ARE COUNTING MEXICANS AS WHITE

Districts 6, 9 and 10 are the Mission district
and the heaviest concentration of the Hispanic population

Yet, from the same report...

I found it pretty interesting,
when I read this in the same report...

Dispelling the notion that the majority of those on our streets have drifted here from elsewhere to receive free services and food,
69% of the homeless population claim they lived in
San Francisco housing prior to becoming homeless,

Just the fact, this was included in the report
tells me they are addressing what others in SF
are contributing the problems to

Dispelling...the notion

People in the community know what they see
and what they are seeing, leads them to believe
and what the city of San Francisco wants to dispel,
by the report

Believe me when I say....
NO ONE IN THE COMMUNITY THIS PROBLEM EFFECTS
IS REFERRING TO BLACKS AND WHITES
FLOODING INTO THE CITY FROM ELSEWHERE
FOR FREE SERVICES AND FOOD

IF BLACKS ARE ONLY 6% OF TOTAL POPULATION
AND REPRESENT 34% OF THE HOMELESS POPULATION
YOU EXPECT ME TO BELIEVE, OVER 121,000 MEXICANS
AND THEY ONLY REPRESENT 22% OF THE HOMELESS

FUCK OFF

In order for SF to get federal money to
‘fight the homeless problem’
these Homeless Census Reports
have to be filed every 2 years

The city of San Francisco has been dramatically increasing expenditure directed towards alleviating the homelessness crisis: spending jumped by $241 million in 2016-17 to total $275 million, compared to a budget of just $34 million the previous year. In 2017-18 the budget for combatting homelessness, much of which is directed towards the building of new shelters and expanding capacity, stood at $305 million.

In January 2018 a United Nations special rapporteur on homelessness, Leilani Farha, stated that she was "completely shocked" by San Francisco's homelessness crisis during a visit to the city. She compared the "deplorable conditions" of the homeless camps she witnessed on San Francisco's streets to those she had seen in Mumbai.

San Francisco

Back to spending...

On October 24, 2013, the Kellogg Foundation sent out a press release about a report they had done entitled, “The Business Case for Racial Equity”. This was a study done by the Kellogg Foundation, using information it had studied and assessed from the Center for American Progress, National Urban League Policy Institute, Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies and the U.S. Department of Justice.

“Striving for racial equity – a world where race is no longer a factor in the distribution of opportunity – is a matter of social justice. But moving toward racial equity can generate significant economic returns as well. When people face barriers to achieving their full potential, the loss of talent, creativity, energy, and productivity is a burden not only for those disadvantaged, but for communities, businesses, governments, and the economy as a whole. Initial research on the magnitude of this burden in the United States (U.S.), as highlighted in this brief, reveals impacts in the trillions of dollars in lost earnings, avoidable public expenditures, and lost economic output.”

The Kellogg Foundation and Altarum Institute

In 2011, DEMOS did a study named “The Racial Wealth Gap, Why Policy Matters”, which discussed the racial wealth gap, the problems associated with it and solutions and outcomes if the gap did not exist. In this study DEMOS determined that the racial wealth gap was primarily driven by policy decisions.

“The U.S. racial wealth gap is substantial and is driven by public policy decisions. According to our analysis of the SIPP data, in 2011 the median white household had $111,146 in wealth holdings, compared to just $7,113 for the median Black household and $8,348 for the median Latino household. From the continuing impact of redlining on American homeownership to the retreat from desegregation in public education, public policy has shaped these disparities, leaving them impossible to overcome without racially-aware policy change.”

“Eliminating disparities in homeownership rates and returns would substantially reduce the racial wealth gap. While 73 percent of white households owned their own homes in 2011, only 47 percent of Latinos and 45 percent of Blacks were homeowners. In addition, Black and Latino homeowners saw less return in wealth on their investment in homeownership: for every $1 in wealth that accrues to median Black households as a result of homeownership, median white households accrue $1.34; meanwhile for every $1 in wealth that accrues to median Latino households as a result of homeownership, median white households accrue $1.54.”

“If public policy successfully eliminated racial disparities in homeownership rates, so that Blacks and Latinos were as likely as white households to own their homes, median Black wealth would grow $32,113 and the wealth gap between Black and white households would shrink 31 percent. Median Latino wealth would grow $29,213 and the wealth gap with white households would shrink 28 percent.”

“If public policy successfully equalized the return on homeownership, so that Blacks and Latinos saw the same financial gains as whites as a result of being homeowners, median Black wealth would grow $17,113 and the wealth gap between Black and white households would shrink 16 percent. Median Latino wealth would grow $41,652 and the wealth gap with white households would shrink 41 percent.”

“Eliminating disparities in college graduation and the return on a college degree would have a modest direct impact on the racial wealth gap. In 2011, 34 percent of whites had completed four-year college degrees compared to just 20 percent of Blacks and 13 percent of Latinos. In addition, Black and Latino college graduates saw a lower return on their degrees than white graduates: for every $1 in wealth that accrues to median Black households associated with a college degree, median white households accrue $11.49. Meanwhile for every $1 in wealth that accrues to median Latino households associated with a college degree, median white households accrue $13.33.”

“If public policy successfully eliminated racial disparities in college graduation rates, median Black wealth would grow $1,313 and the wealth gap between Black and white households would shrink 1 percent. Median Latino wealth would grow $3,528 and the wealth gap with white households would shrink 3 percent. “

“If public policy successfully equalized the return to college graduation, median Black wealth would grow $10,786 and the wealth gap between Black and white households would shrink 10 percent. Median Latino wealth would grow $5,878 and the wealth gap with white households would shrink 6 percent.”

“Eliminating disparities in income—and even more so, the wealth return on income—would substantially reduce the racial wealth gap. Yet in 2011, the median white household had an income of $50,400 a year compared to just $32,028 for Blacks and $36,840 for Latinos. Black and Latino households also see less of a return than white households on the income they earn: for every $1 in wealth that accrues to median Black households associated with a higher income, median white households accrue $4.06. Meanwhile, for every $1 in wealth that accrues to median Latino households associated with higher income, median white households accrue $5.37.”

“If public policy successfully eliminated racial disparities in income, median Black wealth would grow $11,488 and the wealth gap between Black and white households would shrink 11 percent. Median Latino wealth would grow $8,765 and the wealth gap with white households would shrink 9 percent.”

“If public policy successfully equalized the return to income, so that each additional dollar of income going to Black and Latino households was converted to wealth at the same rate as white households, median Black wealth would grow $44,963 and median Latino wealth would grow $51,552. This would shrink the wealth gap with white households by 43 and 50 percent respectively.”

Now STFU.

Now STFU

No African...YOU shut the fuck up!

If public policy successfully eliminated racial disparities in homeownership rates, so that Blacks and Latinos were as likely as white households to own their homes,

Bitch...been there done that

Under Obama, all gains in African wealth, were lost
This wealth was gained, under Clinton

Granting loans based on income, job history
debt ratio and credit score(worthiness)
is not redlining, it’s practical

No one is entitled to own a home
unless they can afford it

If public policy successfully equalized the return on homeownership, so that Blacks and Latinos saw the same financial gains as whites as a result of being homeowners,

What, create policies forcing buyers to pay top dollar on a home
that wasn’t taken care of, in a shithole neighborhood

If public policy successfully eliminated racial disparities in college graduation rates, median Black wealth would grow $1,313

What, create policies to give Africans degrees

So, current public policy is to blame
for the rate of Africans graduating from college?

If public policy successfully equalized the return to college graduation, median Black wealth would grow $10,786

So, current public policy is to blame
for African choices and responsibilities?

So, if an African graduates college
but, has outstanding debt, expensive taste,
maybe they already have a couple kids,
maybe they chose a field that wasn’t practical...

That’s whose fault?
White people and public policy

If public policy successfully eliminated racial disparities in income, median Black wealth would grow $11,488

So, people who work at McDonalds or Walmart
should make the same as a nurse

So, Africans being limited to low paying jobs
is the result of public policy

If public policy successfully equalized the return to income, so that each additional dollar of income going to Black and Latino households was converted to wealth at the same rate as white households

Again, if Africans obligations or spending habits
prevent them from accumulating wealth
because they spend their money foolishly
or are taking care of their responsibilities
how is anyone or anything else to blame?

You want policies to give Africans loans, again,
so they can buy homes they can’t afford and won’t take care of
and force potential buyers to pay more then the house is worth

You want policies to give Africans college degrees
so there are as many Africans with a college degree as whites

You want policies that require paying Africans,
working low paying jobs, top dollar

You want policies that create wealth
because their obligations and poor choices
prevent them from accumulating wealth otherwise

Go fuck yourself African

I want everything you whites have given yourselves since at least 7-4-1776 bitch.

Understand?

 

[John Shaw]

What I see here is a double standard made by a bunch of whiny whites about a person of color holding a mirror to their faces.

After reading #177, then this ^....

ROFLMFAO

At this point...too bad, call someone who cares

Blacks can’t even manage the countries they dominate

(CNN) In Africa, less than one in three people
have a proper drainage system,
half of the population live in areas without paved roads,
and only 63% have access to piped water.
Yet, 93% of Africans have cell phone service.

Although it has abundant natural resources, Africa remains
the world's poorest and most under-equipped continent

Poverty, illiteracy, malnutrition and inadequate water supply
and sanitation, as well as poor health, affect a large proportion
of the people who reside in the African continent

The average poor person in sub-Saharan Africa is estimated to live on only 70 cents per day, and was poorer in 2003 than in 1973,

The continent is believed to hold 90% of the world's cobalt,
90% of its platinum, 50% of its gold, 98% of its chromium,
70% of its tantalite, 64% of its manganese
and one-third of its uranium.

The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) has 70%
of the world's coltan, a mineral used in the production of
tantalum capacitors for electronic devices such as cell phones.
The DRC also has more than 30% of the world's diamond reserves.

During US President Barack Obama's visit to Africa in July 2013,
he announced a US $7 billion plan to further develop infrastructure
and work more intensively with African heads of state.

With 1.2 billion people as of 2016, it accounts for about
16% of the world's human population.

Africa's population has rapidly increased over the last 40 years,

The total number of people in Africa increased from
229 million in 1950 to 630 million in 1990.
As of 2016, the population of Africa is estimated at 1.2 billion

Africa's rapid population growth is expected to overtake
the only two nations currently larger than its population,
at roughly the same time – India and China's 1.4 billion people
each will swap ranking around the year 2022.

This increase in number of babies born in Africa compared to
the rest of the world is expected to reach approximately
37% in the year 2050, an increase of 21% since 1990 alone

ROFLMFAO...Obviously, an African trait

Buy what I want, beg for what I need
Live like a bum, look like a million
Have kids I can’t feed or provide shelter for
Have kids, then more kids,...
there aren’t enough emancipated children
reduced to skin and bones, wailing, covered with flies

Ignorance, irresponsibility, selfishness, inferior

So, stop being so ungrateful...
A Thank You would be nice

If white people didn’t bring Africans to America,
you’d be talking on your phone and shitting in a bucket...

That’s if you’re one of the better class of Africans

You could be waiting for the next shipment of
rice and energy bars from the United States

You could be trying to sneak in....
And why we want/need walls...to keep you out

Whites don’t owe blacks shit!

Money? Please, f*ck you

We give and have given yous enough

25% of assimilated Africans in the U.S.
take the opportunities whites have given them,
75% of Africans in the U.S. take the handouts instead

Figure in your distant family members, in Africa alone...

Africans owe white people money!

You are not an African American, you are an African,
lucky enough to have been born in America
because your distant relatives were
taken from Africa and brought to America

So, say Thank You
or shut the f*ck up and deal with it

Im2 says they don’t need or want our help. And it seems that there are enough blacks with enough wealth that they have everything they need to show us what they can do. Pick a city, elect blacks to run the city. Have spike lee and Beyoncé and tiger woods start grocery stores and shopping malls. Thrive. Don’t ask for federal help but we know they will because so do white communities. Start producing things white Americans want to buy so you have something to trade.

IM2 is saying our dollars have helped make whites rich so you need to drop the arrogance and the lies you tell yourself.

I'm not rich though. Must be someone's holding me back, and not my own fault. Still waiting on that big government handout and the accompanying whiteness award. Any day now, I'm sure.

Yawn.

You're right, boring subject. That must be why you're obsessed with it.

 

[keepitreal]

Any person in America has access to opportunities. They may not have the skills or balls go go get them.

Things are definitely harder for people in ghettos than they are for whites in Mayberry. What do you want us to do about it? There are rich whites who do the hiring that don’t like blacks. These are mostly small and medium size corporations. What do you want us to force them to hire blacks? Big corporations have diversity programs. They are trying.

And not every small and medium size company is racist. It is what it is.

So besides that. Are blacks starting their own businesses and supporting other black businesses?

On October 24, 2013, the Kellogg Foundation sent out a press release about a report they had done entitled, “The Business Case for Racial Equity”. This was a study done by the Kellogg Foundation, using information it had studied and assessed from the Center for American Progress, National Urban League Policy Institute, Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies and the U.S. Department of Justice.

“Striving for racial equity – a world where race is no longer a factor in the distribution of opportunity – is a matter of social justice. But moving toward racial equity can generate significant economic returns as well. When people face barriers to achieving their full potential, the loss of talent, creativity, energy, and productivity is a burden not only for those disadvantaged, but for communities, businesses, governments, and the economy as a whole. Initial research on the magnitude of this burden in the United States (U.S.), as highlighted in this brief, reveals impacts in the trillions of dollars in lost earnings, avoidable public expenditures, and lost economic output.”

In 2011, DEMOS did a study named “The Racial Wealth Gap, Why Policy Matters”, which discussed the racial wealth gap, the problems associated with it and solutions and outcomes if the gap did not exist. In this study DEMOS determined that the racial wealth gap was primarily driven by policy decisions.

“The U.S. racial wealth gap is substantial and is driven by public policy decisions. According to our analysis of the SIPP data, in 2011 the median white household had $111,146 in wealth holdings, compared to just $7,113 for the median Black household and $8,348 for the median Latino household. From the continuing impact of redlining on American homeownership to the retreat from desegregation in public education, public policy has shaped these disparities, leaving them impossible to overcome without racially-aware policy change.”

“Eliminating disparities in homeownership rates and returns would substantially reduce the racial wealth gap. While 73 percent of white households owned their own homes in 2011, only 47 percent of Latinos and 45 percent of Blacks were homeowners. In addition, Black and Latino homeowners saw less return in wealth on their investment in homeownership: for every $1 in wealth that accrues to median Black households as a result of homeownership, median white households accrue $1.34; meanwhile for every $1 in wealth that accrues to median Latino households as a result of homeownership, median white households accrue $1.54.”

“If public policy successfully eliminated racial disparities in homeownership rates, so that Blacks and Latinos were as likely as white households to own their homes, median Black wealth would grow $32,113 and the wealth gap between Black and white households would shrink 31 percent. Median Latino wealth would grow $29,213 and the wealth gap with white households would shrink 28 percent.”

“If public policy successfully equalized the return on homeownership, so that Blacks and Latinos saw the same financial gains as whites as a result of being homeowners, median Black wealth would grow $17,113 and the wealth gap between Black and white households would shrink 16 percent. Median Latino wealth would grow $41,652 and the wealth gap with white households would shrink 41 percent.”

“Eliminating disparities in college graduation and the return on a college degree would have a modest direct impact on the racial wealth gap. In 2011, 34 percent of whites had completed four-year college degrees compared to just 20 percent of Blacks and 13 percent of Latinos. In addition, Black and Latino college graduates saw a lower return on their degrees than white graduates: for every $1 in wealth that accrues to median Black households associated with a college degree, median white households accrue $11.49. Meanwhile for every $1 in wealth that accrues to median Latino households associated with a college degree, median white households accrue $13.33.”

“If public policy successfully eliminated racial disparities in college graduation rates, median Black wealth would grow $1,313 and the wealth gap between Black and white households would shrink 1 percent. Median Latino wealth would grow $3,528 and the wealth gap with white households would shrink 3 percent. “

“If public policy successfully equalized the return to college graduation, median Black wealth would grow $10,786 and the wealth gap between Black and white households would shrink 10 percent. Median Latino wealth would grow $5,878 and the wealth gap with white households would shrink 6 percent.”

“Eliminating disparities in income—and even more so, the wealth return on income—would substantially reduce the racial wealth gap. Yet in 2011, the median white household had an income of $50,400 a year compared to just $32,028 for Blacks and $36,840 for Latinos. Black and Latino households also see less of a return than white households on the income they earn: for every $1 in wealth that accrues to median Black households associated with a higher income, median white households accrue $4.06. Meanwhile, for every $1 in wealth that accrues to median Latino households associated with higher income, median white households accrue $5.37.”

“If public policy successfully eliminated racial disparities in income, median Black wealth would grow $11,488 and the wealth gap between Black and white households would shrink 11 percent. Median Latino wealth would grow $8,765 and the wealth gap with white households would shrink 9 percent.”

“If public policy successfully equalized the return to income, so that each additional dollar of income going to Black and Latino households was converted to wealth at the same rate as white households, median Black wealth would grow $44,963 and median Latino wealth would grow $51,552. This would shrink the wealth gap with white households by 43 and 50 percent respectively.”

Now STFU.

Now STFU

No African...YOU shut the fuck up!

If public policy successfully eliminated racial disparities in homeownership rates, so that Blacks and Latinos were as likely as white households to own their homes,

Bitch...been there done that

Under Obama, all gains in African wealth, were lost
This wealth was gained, under Clinton

Granting loans based on income, job history
debt ratio and credit score(worthiness)
is not redlining, it’s practical

No one is entitled to own a home
unless they can afford it

If public policy successfully equalized the return on homeownership, so that Blacks and Latinos saw the same financial gains as whites as a result of being homeowners,

What, create policies forcing buyers to pay top dollar on a home
that wasn’t taken care of, in a shithole neighborhood

If public policy successfully eliminated racial disparities in college graduation rates, median Black wealth would grow $1,313

What, create policies to give Africans degrees

So, current public policy is to blame
for the rate of Africans graduating from college?

If public policy successfully equalized the return to college graduation, median Black wealth would grow $10,786

So, current public policy is to blame
for African choices and responsibilities?

So, if an African graduates college
but, has outstanding debt, expensive taste,
maybe they already have a couple kids,
maybe they chose a field that wasn’t practical...

That’s whose fault?
White people and public policy

If public policy successfully eliminated racial disparities in income, median Black wealth would grow $11,488

So, people who work at McDonalds or Walmart
should make the same as a nurse

So, Africans being limited to low paying jobs
is the result of public policy

If public policy successfully equalized the return to income, so that each additional dollar of income going to Black and Latino households was converted to wealth at the same rate as white households

Again, if Africans obligations or spending habits
prevent them from accumulating wealth
because they spend their money foolishly
or are taking care of their responsibilities
how is anyone or anything else to blame?

You want policies to give Africans loans, again,
so they can buy homes they can’t afford and won’t take care of
and force potential buyers to pay more then the house is worth

You want policies to give Africans college degrees
so there are as many Africans with a college degree as whites

You want policies that require paying Africans,
working low paying jobs, top dollar

You want policies that create wealth
because their obligations and poor choices
prevent them from accumulating wealth otherwise

Go fuck yourself African

I want everything you whites have given yourselves since at least 7-4-1776 bitch.

Understand?

I want everything you whites have given yourselves since at least 7-4-1776 bitch.

Africans lost half their wealth
as a result of the housing crisis they created

Africans lost nearly as much during the financial crisis

THANKS OBAMA!

The Obama presidency was a disaster for middle-class wealth in the United States. Between 2007 and 2016, the average wealth of the bottom 99 percent dropped by $4,500. Over the same period, the average wealth of the top 1 percent rose by $4.9 million.

This drop hit the housing wealth of African Americans particularly hard. Outside of home equity, black wealth recovered its 2007 level by 2016. But average black home equity was still $16,700 lower.

Much of this decline, we will argue, can be laid at the feet of President Obama. His housing policies led directly to millions of families losing their homes. What’s more, Obama had the power — money, legislative tools, and legal leverage — to sharply ameliorate the foreclosure crisis.

He chose not to use it.

How Obama Destroyed Black Wealth

If Trump gets his way, housing funding will be cut
and work requirements for housing assistance
will be enforceable

While home sales continue to rise
for Hispanics and whites, and their wealth increases
Home sales for Africans continue to decrease
as well as African wealth
