Why Do Whites Think They Can Tell Us What The Problems in Black America Are?

[flacaltenn]

The Mayor of Chicago is still the Mayor of all Chicago. That doesn't change because she talks to reporters of color.

YOU make the rules now?? What would you say if a WHITE MAYOR (or Repub) mayor of one of Americas FORMERLY great cities flat out REJECTED talking to BLACK REPORTERS en masse?? Would that be WRONG? Of course it would.. So - your RULE IS SHIT..

Everything you say and think and do is now taken from the "segregationist handbook" of the Dem party that brought you real grief, pain and sorrow.. You don't even understand why Lightfoot cant pull that race card out of her ass and get a pass..

I told you YEARS AGO, that if you wanted to use the tactics of the white supremacists -- (like many of CRT and Equity-not-Equality Marxist cult leaders of your "black revolution" are NOW doing) -- you'd just sink to the same level of irrelevance. Stupid ignorant racism is like that. It will NEVER win...

The fact that the vast majority of reporters are white males is undisputed. You may feel that doesn't cause any problems, but facts show differently. I, and probably the mayor of DC think that was probably not the best way to make that point, but it was a valid point to make.

Why Do Whites Think They Can Tell Us What The Problems in Black America Are?​

We don't....hey I got an idea....STOP BLAMING US!!!!!! Mabey that will work.....

As long as racists like you stand in the way of our progress you will be held to account.

I'm a racist because I say stop blaming us?...maybe if you did you would not have the problems you face in the black community...its not our fault that many blacks want to join gangs drop out of school and end up dead or in prison....I have nothing to do with that....defunding the cops will not cure it either...defunding cops means more death from gun fire in the hood not less....

You go girl.. Try to over think this stupidity.. As far as I'm concerned, this is just more leftist on leftist violence with the mayor dressing down a city press corp that is UNQUESTIONABLY as dedicated to the "cause" as she is.. They just dont have the the right skin color so she can LEGALLY INTIMIDATE THEM into shutting up and not giving her a hard questions and interrogations.

This is the sound of the "woking dead" eating their own.. It's a happy sound because it means that normal sane folks dont have to work so hard to make this multi-verse of morons go back into their tombs...

 

[Who_Me?]

Why do you constantly play the victim and cry out that the society is racist? What have you done to help yourself? White people don't care about your problems, we have enough of our own. You're not even on the radar. The only way to get ahead in society is to get an education and work like hell. Hispanics surpassed Blacks socioeconomically even though they have a language barrier to overcome. They don't care about prejudice they start businesses and work very hard. You just don't get it. Successful Blacks do but the majority just call them Uncle Toms. You just don't get it.

I mean really? What in the hell makes a group of people with a history of enslavement , genocide and apartheid in order to achieve what they have belive they have been so sucessful that they can lecture others. Without enslavement, genocide and aparthied, whites in America would have very little, if anything.

People in this forum have the opinion that blacks should do things like whites and if we do so, we can make it in America. So then what we need to do is orchestate a bloody coup, confiscate all property owned by whites, jail all whites who oppose the coup, write a new constitution that declare citizenship and it's protection only for non whites, make whites chattel for the forseeable future, make it illegal for whites to reald, own property or access information and create laws where if whites get out of line they can be beaten and killed.

Because this is how whites have done it.

In another forum, I stated that the root cause of the problems blacks face is white racism. One of the whites there decided to say this:

“The root cause of the problems faced by most blacks today are people like you who misidentify or ignore the real problems they face to further their own personal agendas.”

This is another of the long, long line of idiotic comments made by right wing whites. White racism was determined to be the problem 53 years ago by the Kerner Commission.

"What white Americans have never fully understood but what the Negro can never forget--is that white society is deeply implicated in the ghetto. White institutions created it, white institutions maintain it, and white society condones it."

"White racism is essentially responsible for the explosive mixture which has been accumulating in our cities since the end of World War II."

But the excuse will be made about how that was 50 years ago, and that stupid ass song will be sung titled, "That was in the Past."

On February 26, 2018, 50 years after the Kerner Commission findings, the Economic Policy Institute published a report evaluating the progress of the black community since the Kerner Report was released. It was based on a study done by the Economic Policy Institute that compared the progress of the black community in 2018 with the condition of the black community at the time of the Kerner Commission. Titled “50 years after the Kerner Commission,” the study concluded that there had been some improvements in the situation blacks faced but there were still disadvantages blacks faced that were based on race.

Following up on this, Richard Rothstein of the Economic Policy Institute wrote an op-ed published in the February 28th edition of the New York Daily News titled, “50 years after the Kerner Commission, minimal racial progress.” It had been 50 years since the commission made their recommendations at that point, yet Rothstein makes this statement: “So little has changed since 1968 that the report remains worth reading as a near-contemporary description of racial inequality.”

So 3 years ago the same conclusion was made. "The root cause of the problems blacks face is white racism."

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 along with 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.”

Harvard.

“Racial inequality in the United States today may, ultimately, be based on slavery, but it is also based on the failure of the country to take effective steps since slavery to undermine the structural racial inequality that slavery put in place. From the latter part of the nineteenth century through the first half of the twentieth century, the Jim Crow system continued to keep Blacks “in their place,” and even during and after the civil rights era no policies were adopted to dismantle the racial hierarchy that already existed.”

HOUSING DISCRIMINATION AS A BASIS FOR BLACK REPARATIONS, Jonathan Kaplan and Andrew Valls, Public Affairs Quarterly

Volume 21, Number 3, July 2007

McKinsey and Co.

“It will end up costing the U.S. economy as much as $1 trillion between now and 2028 for the nation to maintain its longstanding black-white racial wealth gap, according to a report released this month from the global consultancy firm McKinsey & Company. That will be roughly 4 percent of the United States GDP in 2028—just the conservative view, assuming that the wealth growth rates of African Americans will outpace white wealth growth at its current clip of 3 percent to .8 percent annually, said McKinsey. If the gap widens, however, with white wealth growing at a faster rate than black wealth instead, it could end up costing the U.S. $1.5 trillion or 6 percent of GDP according to the firm.”

Citigroup

Cost Of Racism: U.S. Economy Lost $16 Trillion Because Of Discrimination, Bank Says

Nationwide protests have cast a spotlight on racism and inequality in the United States. Now a major bank has put a price tag on how much the economy has lost as a result of discrimination against African Americans: $16 trillion.

Since 2000, U.S. gross domestic product lost that much as a result of discriminatory practices in a range of areas, including in education and access to business loans, according to a new study by Citigroup.

Specifically, the study came up with $16 trillion in lost GDP by noting four key racial gaps between African Americans and whites:

$13 trillion lost in potential business revenue because of discriminatory lending to African American entrepreneurs, with an estimated 6.1 million jobs not generated as a result

$2.7 trillion in income lost because of disparities in wages suffered by African Americans

$218 billion lost over the past two decades because of discrimination in providing housing credit

And $90 billion to $113 billion in lifetime income lost from discrimination in accessing higher education

Why this is just a bunch of liberal jibberish to to blacks in order to keep them voting democrat. Those aren't the problems, what we conservatives tell you is the real problem. Why if you just had a father in the home none of this would happen.

Black Workers Still Earn Less than Their White Counterparts

As employers in the U.S. tackle issues around racism, fresh attention is being given to the racial wage gap and why black men and women, in particular, still earn substantially less than their white counterparts. Nearly 56 years after the passage of the Civil Rights Act, "we find equal pay for equal work is still not a reality," noted Jackson Gruver, a data analyst at compensation data and software firm PayScale.

Last year, PayScale analyzed differences in earnings between white men and men of color using data from a sample of 1.8 million employees surveyed between January 2017 and February 2019.

Among the findings, Gruver reported: "Even as black or African-American men climb the corporate ladder, they still make less than equally qualified white men. They are the only racial/ethnic group that does not achieve pay parity with white men at some level."

The study found that black men had the largest "uncontrolled pay gap" relative to white men, when comparing the average earnings of black men and white men in the U.S.

On average, black men earned 87 cents for every dollar a white man earned. Hispanic workers had the next largest gap, earning 91 cents for every dollar earned by white men.

View attachment 488055

To put that in perspective, the median salary of a white man in our sample is $72,900; the controlled median pay for black or African-American men is thus $71,500," Gruver said. "This suggests a $1,400 difference in pay that is likely attributable to race."

So daddy lives at home and the family still makes less than whites. Because:

NWLC calculations, based on the U.S. Census Bureau's Current Population Survey for 2016, revealed that when comparing all men and women who work full time, year-round in the U.S., women were paid just 80 cents for every dollar paid to their male counterparts. But the wage gap was even larger when looking specifically at black women who work full time, year-round—they were paid only 63 cents for every dollar paid to white, non-Hispanic men.

Stephen Miller, Black Workers Still Earn Less than Their White Counterparts, www.shrm.org/resourcesandtools/hr-topics/compensation/pages/racial-wage-gaps-persistence-poses-challenge.aspx

So a white working couple will make 90 cents on every dollar while a black working couple makes 75 cents. To allow you to understand this reality a white female worker makes 80 cents on every dollar a white man makes. White females are demanding equal pay and rightfully so.

And you black folk really need to start taking education seriously.

Black unemployment is significantly higher than white unemployment regardless of educational attainment

The black unemployment rate is nearly or more than twice the white unemployment rate regardless of educational attainment. It is, and always has been, about twice the white unemployment rate; however, the depth of this racial inequality in the labor market rarely makes the headlines.

Over the last 12 months, the average unemployment rate for black college graduates has been 4.1 percent—nearly two times the average unemployment rate for white college graduates (2.4 percent) and equivalent to the unemployment rate of whites with an associate’s degree or who have not completed college (4.0 percent). The largest disparity is seen among those with less than a high school diploma: while whites with less than a high school diploma have an unemployment rate of 6.9 percent, the black unemployment rate is 16.6 percent—over two times the white average.

The broader significance of this disparity suggests a race penalty whereby blacks at each level of education have unemployment rates that are the same as or higher than less educated whites.

Valerie Wilson, Black unemployment is significantly higher than white unemployment regardless of educational attainment, www.epi.org/publication/black-unemployment-educational-attainment/

African Americans are paid less than whites at every education level

While the economy continues to improve and wages are finally beginning to inch up for most Americans, African Americans are still being paid less than whites at every education level. As you can see from the chart below, while a college education results in higher wages—both for whites and blacks—it does not eliminate the black-white wage gap. African Americans are still earning less than whites at every level of educational attainment. A recent EPI report, Black-white wage gaps expand with rising wage inequality, shows that this gap persists even after controlling for years of experience, region of the country, and whether one lives in an urban or rural area. In fact, since 1979, the gaps between black and white workers have grown the most among workers with a bachelor’s degree or higher—the most educated workers.

Valerie Wilson, African Americans are paid less than whites at every education level, www.epi.org/publication/african-americans-are-paid-less-than-whites-at-every-education-level/

But to say white racism is the cause of things no matter how much proof we show your white asses, you have some kind of idiotic ass excuse, like we are blaming whites for our failures or;

We misdiagnose and ignore the "real" problem to fit an imaginary agenda racists in tha white community invented so they can deny how THEY are the root cause of the problem.

You right wing scrubs are always talking about responsibility.

Take some instead of running your mouths.

Nice cut and paste. Have you any original thoughts?

That will be roughly 4 percent of the United States GDP in 2028—just the conservative view, assuming that the wealth growth rates of African Americans will outpace white wealth growth at its current clip of 3 percent to .8 percent annually, said McKinsey. If the gap widens, however, with white wealth growing at a faster rate than black wealth instead, it could end up costing the U.S. $1.5 trillion or 6 percent of GDP according to the firm.”

Cost Of Racism: U.S. Economy Lost $16 Trillion Because Of Discrimination, Bank Says

Nationwide protests have cast a spotlight on racism and inequality in the United States. Now a major bank has put a price tag on how much the economy has lost as a result of discrimination against African Americans: $16 trillion.

Since 2000, U.S. gross domestic product lost that much as a result of discriminatory practices in a range of areas, including in education and access to business loans, according to a new study by Citigroup.

Specifically, the study came up with $16 trillion in lost GDP by noting four key racial gaps between African Americans and whites:

$13 trillion lost in potential business revenue because of discriminatory lending to African American entrepreneurs, with an estimated 6.1 million jobs not generated as a result

$2.7 trillion in income lost because of disparities in wages suffered by African Americans

$218 billion lost over the past two decades because of discrimination in providing housing credit

And $90 billion to $113 billion in lifetime income lost from discrimination in accessing higher education

Why this is just a bunch of liberal jibberish to to blacks in order to keep them voting democrat. Those aren't the problems, what we conservatives tell you is the real problem. Why if you just had a father in the home none of this would happen.

Black Workers Still Earn Less than Their White Counterparts

As employers in the U.S. tackle issues around racism, fresh attention is being given to the racial wage gap and why black men and women, in particular, still earn substantially less than their white counterparts. Nearly 56 years after the passage of the Civil Rights Act, "we find equal pay for equal work is still not a reality," noted Jackson Gruver, a data analyst at compensation data and software firm PayScale.

Last year, PayScale analyzed differences in earnings between white men and men of color using data from a sample of 1.8 million employees surveyed between January 2017 and February 2019.

Among the findings, Gruver reported: "Even as black or African-American men climb the corporate ladder, they still make less than equally qualified white men. They are the only racial/ethnic group that does not achieve pay parity with white men at some level."

The study found that black men had the largest "uncontrolled pay gap" relative to white men, when comparing the average earnings of black men and white men in the U.S.

On average, black men earned 87 cents for every dollar a white man earned. Hispanic workers had the next largest gap, earning 91 cents for every dollar earned by white men.

View attachment 488055

To put that in perspective, the median salary of a white man in our sample is $72,900; the controlled median pay for black or African-American men is thus $71,500," Gruver said. "This suggests a $1,400 difference in pay that is likely attributable to race."

So daddy lives at home and the family still makes less than whites. Because:

NWLC calculations, based on the U.S. Census Bureau's Current Population Survey for 2016, revealed that when comparing all men and women who work full time, year-round in the U.S., women were paid just 80 cents for every dollar paid to their male counterparts. But the wage gap was even larger when looking specifically at black women who work full time, year-round—they were paid only 63 cents for every dollar paid to white, non-Hispanic men.

Stephen Miller, Black Workers Still Earn Less than Their White Counterparts, www.shrm.org/resourcesandtools/hr-topics/compensation/pages/racial-wage-gaps-persistence-poses-challenge.aspx

So a white working couple will make 90 cents on every dollar while a black working couple makes 75 cents. To allow you to understand this reality a white female worker makes 80 cents on every dollar a white man makes. White females are demanding equal pay and rightfully so.

And you black folk really need to start taking education seriously.

Black unemployment is significantly higher than white unemployment regardless of educational attainment

The black unemployment rate is nearly or more than twice the white unemployment rate regardless of educational attainment. It is, and always has been, about twice the white unemployment rate; however, the depth of this racial inequality in the labor market rarely makes the headlines.

Over the last 12 months, the average unemployment rate for black college graduates has been 4.1 percent—nearly two times the average unemployment rate for white college graduates (2.4 percent) and equivalent to the unemployment rate of whites with an associate’s degree or who have not completed college (4.0 percent). The largest disparity is seen among those with less than a high school diploma: while whites with less than a high school diploma have an unemployment rate of 6.9 percent, the black unemployment rate is 16.6 percent—over two times the white average.

The broader significance of this disparity suggests a race penalty whereby blacks at each level of education have unemployment rates that are the same as or higher than less educated whites.

Valerie Wilson, Black unemployment is significantly higher than white unemployment regardless of educational attainment, www.epi.org/publication/black-unemployment-educational-attainment/

African Americans are paid less than whites at every education level

While the economy continues to improve and wages are finally beginning to inch up for most Americans, African Americans are still being paid less than whites at every education level. As you can see from the chart below, while a college education results in higher wages—both for whites and blacks—it does not eliminate the black-white wage gap. African Americans are still earning less than whites at every level of educational attainment. A recent EPI report, Black-white wage gaps expand with rising wage inequality, shows that this gap persists even after controlling for years of experience, region of the country, and whether one lives in an urban or rural area. In fact, since 1979, the gaps between black and white workers have grown the most among workers with a bachelor’s degree or higher—the most educated workers.

But to say white racism is the cause of things no matter how much proof we show your white asses, you have some kind of idiotic ass excuse, like we are blaming whites for our failures or;

We misdiagnose and ignore the "real" problem to fit an imaginary agenda racists in tha white community invented so they can deny how THEY are the root cause of the problem.

You right wing scrubs are always talking about responsibility.

Take some instead of running your mouths.

Nice cut and paste. Have you any original thoughts?

10 to 1 all that is sent to him and then he posts it.

You might want to drop those odds. In fact that's a bet you have lost.

Why do you constantly play the victim and cry out that the society is racist? What have you done to help yourself? White people don't care about your problems, we have enough of our own. You're not even on the radar. The only way to get ahead in society is to get an education and work like hell. Hispanics surpassed Blacks socioeconomically even though they have a language barrier to overcome. They don't care about prejudice they start businesses and work very hard. You just don't get it. Successful Blacks do but the majority just call them Uncle Toms. You just don't get it.

Why do you repeat this retarded right wing bullshit? Whites created the problem. Everything you say here is incorrect. Hispanics are making the same arguments we are and there are millions who are born here without the speech impediment. You are ignorant. I don't listen to people who were given everything by the government tell me about hard work. I know all about hard work. I have college degrees. You could not walk a block in my shoes white man. Successful blacks? White boy, I helped build 3 different non profits. One from an idea on paper. You don't know what success is. Aparently success to you are blacks who suck your racist ass then tell you what you desperately need to hear so you can feel right about your racism. The racism in America is apparent and it will be called out until it stops.

The Mayor of Chicago is still the Mayor of all Chicago. That doesn't change because she talks to reporters of color.

YOU make the rules now?? What would you say if a WHITE MAYOR (or Repub) mayor of one of Americas FORMERLY great cities flat out REJECTED talking to BLACK REPORTERS en masse?? Would that be WRONG? Of course it would.. So - your RULE IS SHIT..

Everything you say and think and do is now taken from the "segregationist handbook" of the Dem party that brought you real grief, pain and sorrow.. You don't even understand why Lightfoot cant pull that race card out of her ass and get a pass..

I told you YEARS AGO, that if you wanted to use the tactics of the white supremacists -- (like many of CRT and Equity-not-Equality Marxist cult leaders of your "black revolution" are NOW doing) -- you'd just sink to the same level of irrelevance. Stupid ignorant racism is like that. It will NEVER win...

If the media was majority black reporters and whites weren't getting a chance, I would support what that mayor was doing. You try making things that are not the same the same thing. That can't be done for race or anything else. Let me simplify this for you because it is apparent after all the words that you don't have a clue. Blacks and all people of color have been the ones picked on by whites. Our dislike of being picked on is not the same things as whites picking on us. Learn that.

Then understand something flacaltenn, you don't tell me shit. I'm the one doing the telling because you cannot express an opinion that considers all the facts. CRT is nothing like white supremacy, CRT does not state that anything is inferior or superior. It is a look at race using critical theory which is a philosophical approach to culture that seeks to confront the social, historical, and ideological forces and structures that produce and constrain that culture. You talk about Marxism, but white supremacy is what you think marxism is.

Critical race theory says that American INSTITUTIONS are inherently racist and that race is a construct by whites used to further their interests. Critical race theory says that racial inequality is the result of social, economic, and legal differences created by whites. These are the social, historical, and ideological forces and structures that constrain the black communityas well as other communities of color. Race IS a social construct. less Then as we look at this country and the many policies enacted by the government at every level, the processes used to enact and administer these policies as well as the intended outcomes destroy any opposition to the premise of the theory. The Critical Race Theory is completely accurate in its analysis of the American system and how it has operated.

There is nothing in the theory that states any sort of supremacy. But you operate with a severe case of white fragilty therefore YOUR opinion and beliefs on race cannot be questioned, because YOU as a white man are the ONLY authority therefore yo can tell me what's what and I must accept that it is so.

Fuck that.

We have 245 years of laws and policies proving the [remise of CRT to be true. All you have are stupid ass fact free rants and calling everything Marxist. Go read the theory, then look at Shelby Co v. Holder and tell me how CRT is not correct. It's time whites like you stopped trying to think they can fool people with double talk and fake indignation.

I mean really? What in the hell makes a group of people with a history of enslavement , genocide and apartheid in order to achieve what they have belive they have been so sucessful that they can lecture others. Without enslavement, genocide and aparthied, whites in America would have very little, if anything.

People in this forum have the opinion that blacks should do things like whites and if we do so, we can make it in America. So then what we need to do is orchestate a bloody coup, confiscate all property owned by whites, jail all whites who oppose the coup, write a new constitution that declare citizenship and it's protection only for non whites, make whites chattel for the forseeable future, make it illegal for whites to reald, own property or access information and create laws where if whites get out of line they can be beaten and killed.

Because this is how whites have done it.

In another forum, I stated that the root cause of the problems blacks face is white racism. One of the whites there decided to say this:

“The root cause of the problems faced by most blacks today are people like you who misidentify or ignore the real problems they face to further their own personal agendas.”

This is another of the long, long line of idiotic comments made by right wing whites. White racism was determined to be the problem 53 years ago by the Kerner Commission.

"What white Americans have never fully understood but what the Negro can never forget--is that white society is deeply implicated in the ghetto. White institutions created it, white institutions maintain it, and white society condones it."

"White racism is essentially responsible for the explosive mixture which has been accumulating in our cities since the end of World War II."

But the excuse will be made about how that was 50 years ago, and that stupid ass song will be sung titled, "That was in the Past."

On February 26, 2018, 50 years after the Kerner Commission findings, the Economic Policy Institute published a report evaluating the progress of the black community since the Kerner Report was released. It was based on a study done by the Economic Policy Institute that compared the progress of the black community in 2018 with the condition of the black community at the time of the Kerner Commission. Titled “50 years after the Kerner Commission,” the study concluded that there had been some improvements in the situation blacks faced but there were still disadvantages blacks faced that were based on race.

Following up on this, Richard Rothstein of the Economic Policy Institute wrote an op-ed published in the February 28th edition of the New York Daily News titled, “50 years after the Kerner Commission, minimal racial progress.” It had been 50 years since the commission made their recommendations at that point, yet Rothstein makes this statement: “So little has changed since 1968 that the report remains worth reading as a near-contemporary description of racial inequality.”

So 3 years ago the same conclusion was made. "The root cause of the problems blacks face is white racism."

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 along with 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.”

Harvard.

“Racial inequality in the United States today may, ultimately, be based on slavery, but it is also based on the failure of the country to take effective steps since slavery to undermine the structural racial inequality that slavery put in place. From the latter part of the nineteenth century through the first half of the twentieth century, the Jim Crow system continued to keep Blacks “in their place,” and even during and after the civil rights era no policies were adopted to dismantle the racial hierarchy that already existed.”

Can America Close The COVID Vaccine Race Gap?

A report from Detroit, where officials are fighting against generations of health care segregation and mistrust of the medical establishment.

www.huffpost.com

A woman in a red sweatshirt and black leggings shoos him away, saying, “Don’t want it, don’t know what’s in it.” A uniformed security guard from nearby Henry Ford Hospital pulls up in his squad car, and practically closes the car door in Talbert’s face. Next is another hospital employee, a woman who shuts down the conversation more politely, saying she wants to wait to learn more.

But some population groups here have fallen conspicuously behind, and one of them is Black Americans, whose vaccination rate is about two-thirds that of white Americans, according to estimates from the Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation. A similar differential exists in Detroit, where the citywide vaccination rate is the lowest for any jurisdiction that the state tracks on its website.
What makes the gap especially disturbing is that it seems unlikely to go away soon. More than half of all American adults are now fully vaccinated, the White House announced this week. But in Detroit, Deputy Mayor Conrad Mallett Jr. told me in an interview, “it would be fantastic if we could get to the middle or high 40s” by September.

So what does this tell me? Like not voting, it tells me that blacks are doing it to themselves, they are lazy, ignorant. So here we are telling you how to act and get vaccinated and despite the fact it hits blacks harder, you guys aren't even at 40% yet.

How are we supposed to help people like this deep in the heart of Detroit if they aren't smart enough to help themselves.

This story points out the problem with the black community. It highlights it. Not crime. Not fatherlessness. Just plain old common sense during a pandemic. What will each group do? According to the vaccine 50% of whites are smart and not even 40% of blacks are smart.

Among the findings, Gruver reported: "Even as black or African-American men climb the corporate ladder, they still make less than equally qualified white men. They are the only racial/ethnic group that does not achieve pay parity with white men at some level."

The study found that black men had the largest "uncontrolled pay gap" relative to white men, when comparing the average earnings of black men and white men in the U.S.

On average, black men earned 87 cents for every dollar a white man earned. Hispanic workers had the next largest gap, earning 91 cents for every dollar earned by white men.

To put that in perspective, the median salary of a white man in our sample is $72,900; the controlled median pay for black or African-American men is thus $71,500," Gruver said. "This suggests a $1,400 difference in pay that is likely attributable to race."

So daddy lives at home and the family still makes less than whites. Because:

NWLC calculations, based on the U.S. Census Bureau's Current Population Survey for 2016, revealed that when comparing all men and women who work full time, year-round in the U.S., women were paid just 80 cents for every dollar paid to their male counterparts. But the wage gap was even larger when looking specifically at black women who work full time, year-round—they were paid only 63 cents for every dollar paid to white, non-Hispanic men.

Stephen Miller, Black Workers Still Earn Less than Their White Counterparts, www.shrm.org/resourcesandtools/hr-topics/compensation/pages/racial-wage-gaps-persistence-poses-challenge.aspx

So a white working couple will make 90 cents on every dollar while a black working couple makes 75 cents. To allow you to understand this reality a white female worker makes 80 cents on every dollar a white man makes. White females are demanding equal pay and rightfully so.

And you black folk really need to start taking education seriously.

Black unemployment is significantly higher than white unemployment regardless of educational attainment

The black unemployment rate is nearly or more than twice the white unemployment rate regardless of educational attainment. It is, and always has been, about twice the white unemployment rate; however, the depth of this racial inequality in the labor market rarely makes the headlines.

Over the last 12 months, the average unemployment rate for black college graduates has been 4.1 percent—nearly two times the average unemployment rate for white college graduates (2.4 percent) and equivalent to the unemployment rate of whites with an associate’s degree or who have not completed college (4.0 percent). The largest disparity is seen among those with less than a high school diploma: while whites with less than a high school diploma have an unemployment rate of 6.9 percent, the black unemployment rate is 16.6 percent—over two times the white average.

The broader significance of this disparity suggests a race penalty whereby blacks at each level of education have unemployment rates that are the same as or higher than less educated whites.

African Americans are paid less than whites at every education level

While the economy continues to improve and wages are finally beginning to inch up for most Americans, African Americans are still being paid less than whites at every education level. As you can see from the chart below, while a college education results in higher wages—both for whites and blacks—it does not eliminate the black-white wage gap. African Americans are still earning less than whites at every level of educational attainment. A recent EPI report, Black-white wage gaps expand with rising wage inequality, shows that this gap persists even after controlling for years of experience, region of the country, and whether one lives in an urban or rural area. In fact, since 1979, the gaps between black and white workers have grown the most among workers with a bachelor’s degree or higher—the most educated workers.

But to say white racism is the cause of things no matter how much proof we show your white asses, you have some kind of idiotic ass excuse, like we are blaming whites for our failures or;

We misdiagnose and ignore the "real" problem to fit an imaginary agenda racists in tha white community invented so they can deny how THEY are the root cause of the problem.

You right wing scrubs are always talking about responsibility.

Take some instead of running your mouths.

Because we pay your bills.

As a White man I pretty well know what the problems are in the Black Community.

1. Too many of them are on welfare.

2. They commit a tremendous amount of crime way out of proportion to their demographics.

3. There is high drug use.

4. They don't take care of their families.

5. They continue to vote for Democrats that do nothing for them.

6. They have been brainwashed by Liberals to have a victim's mentality instead of taking personal responsibility for their own actions.

You keep preaching your truth brother. I'm sure you will soon convince all those black people that they are too stupid to know which party works for them, and will race to become republican. What could go wrong?

the fact that they remain democrat with no thoughts about the consequences from such, is indeed proof of stupidity.

 

[Flash]

The Mayor of Chicago is still the Mayor of all Chicago. That doesn't change because she talks to reporters of color.

YOU make the rules now?? What would you say if a WHITE MAYOR (or Repub) mayor of one of Americas FORMERLY great cities flat out REJECTED talking to BLACK REPORTERS en masse?? Would that be WRONG? Of course it would.. So - your RULE IS SHIT..

Everything you say and think and do is now taken from the "segregationist handbook" of the Dem party that brought you real grief, pain and sorrow.. You don't even understand why Lightfoot cant pull that race card out of her ass and get a pass..

I told you YEARS AGO, that if you wanted to use the tactics of the white supremacists -- (like many of CRT and Equity-not-Equality Marxist cult leaders of your "black revolution" are NOW doing) -- you'd just sink to the same level of irrelevance. Stupid ignorant racism is like that. It will NEVER win...

If the media was majority black reporters and whites weren't getting a chance, I would support what that mayor was doing. You try making things that are not the same the same thing. That can't be done for race or anything else. Let me simplify this for you because it is apparent after all the words that you don't have a clue. Blacks and all people of color have been the ones picked on by whites. Our dislike of being picked on is not the same things as whites picking on us. Learn that.

Then understand something flacaltenn, you don't tell me shit. I'm the one doing the telling because you cannot express an opinion that considers all the facts. CRT is nothing like white supremacy, CRT does not state that anything is inferior or superior. It is a look at race using critical theory which is a philosophical approach to culture that seeks to confront the social, historical, and ideological forces and structures that produce and constrain that culture. You talk about Marxism, but white supremacy is what you think marxism is.

Critical race theory says that American INSTITUTIONS are inherently racist and that race is a construct by whites used to further their interests. Critical race theory says that racial inequality is the result of social, economic, and legal differences created by whites. These are the social, historical, and ideological forces and structures that constrain the black communityas well as other communities of color. Race IS a social construct. less Then as we look at this country and the many policies enacted by the government at every level, the processes used to enact and administer these policies as well as the intended outcomes destroy any opposition to the premise of the theory. The Critical Race Theory is completely accurate in its analysis of the American system and how it has operated.

There is nothing in the theory that states any sort of supremacy. But you operate with a severe case of white fragilty therefore YOUR opinion and beliefs on race cannot be questioned, because YOU as a white man are the ONLY authority therefore yo can tell me what's what and I must accept that it is so.

Fuck that.

We have 245 years of laws and policies proving the [remise of CRT to be true. All you have are stupid ass fact free rants and calling everything Marxist. Go read the theory, then look at Shelby Co v. Holder and tell me how CRT is not correct. It's time whites like you stopped trying to think they can fool people with double talk and fake indignation.

It takes a real hate baiting moron to justify something as racially divisive as CRT.

I'm not confused and you have not listen to primary SOURCES of this crap theory.. ESPECIALLY not confused about the ATTEMPT to FORCE equal outcomes which reduces to TOTALLY the same slogans as Marxism's "To each according to their need" with a pathway designating WHITES as totally worthy of being stripped of their "property" and given to the afflicted and helpless folks with different skin color.. Kimberle Crenshaw is A PRIMARY FOUNDER of this CRT debacle and describes how "whiteness" is a PROPERTY that interferes with RESOLVING the inherent racist nature of the white race.

Where this comes from is a frustration that EQUAL OPPORTUNITY will NEVER be sufficient to overcome the MATERIALISTIC gap between blacks and other races and that OUTCOMES should be guided SOLELY BY "Intersectionality" identities of each person. If you're a handicapped, black, lesbian, you are at top of list of folks to LISTEN TO in terms of speech. As a white male, that "Whiteness as Property" needs to be highly TAXED AND REDISTRIBUTED..

Crenshaw rolls all this UP in one big shitball of marxist ecstasy by rolling in the 1619 project and how America is IRRREDEEMABALY racist unless we ADOPT CRT as a LEGAL given... Because without RANKING RIGHTS by intersectionally determined social scores -- no TRUE RACE PARITY can be achieved..

Dont toss shit back at me.. GO LISTEN TO AND READ the primary sources on CRT and THEN lets discuss this "as equals"...
