Why Liberals Are Just Making This Up!

[IM2]

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 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.”

“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

“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.”

White Americans' Hold on Wealth Is Old, Deep, and Nearly Unshakeable

White families quickly recuperated financial losses after the Civil War, and then created a Jim Crow credit system to bring more white families into money.

Why this is just a bunch of liberal jibberish to to black 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.


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.

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. Employers can examine their pay policies to root out inequities.

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). [/B]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.[/b]

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. [/b]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.

]Yep, all this stuff is made up by liberals to keep blacks voting for democrats. On top of that, these things only happen in democrat cities. Yessir!

[MisterBeale]

Honestly? That is A LOT of information to take in. . . and I know IM2 posts with a biased agenda on a vengeance. . . so yeah, I get Pete's comment.

What I have a really, really hard time figuring out. . . is how they get those statistics. I don't have any friends or relatives that are going to give out that data. . . and most black folks I know would tell social scientists to fuck off if they were asked how much they earn. . .

So I find this whole discussion kind of. . . well, interesting, if not a little silly.

The OP doesn't need to apply for jobs, because the OP creates his own work.

Between 40 and 50 percent of the jobs in this nation are small business. The percentage is even higher in minority communities.

That was one of the successes of the Trump era, he cut regulations and taxes on small businesses, which disproportionately benefited both minority and fly over states.

. . . now, naturally the titans on Wall Street, and global corporations didn't particularly like this competition.

. . and the pandemic has hit this sector of the economy particularly hard, as the new administration has repealed a lot of these cuts in small business regs., it causes a loss in many small communities' abilities to create jobs. . . for both minority communities and small towns.

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.


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.

As employers in the U.S. tackle issues around racism, fresh attention is being given to the racial wage gap. Employers can examine their pay policies to root out inequities.

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). [/B]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.[/b]

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. [/b]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.

God did not make racism, but Satan made lies and deception.

 

[DGS49]

Sam Clemens had a famous saying that is apropos: "There are lies, damned lied, and statistics."

Let's take one example from the above assertions for illustration: "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."

So let's look at people with a bachelor's degree. They are not all equal. How many white college grads have degrees in "Ethnic Studies" (or similar nonsense)? Communications? Sociology? How many white grads have degrees from historically Black colleges and universities? Very few.

These degrees are worthless, and a large percentage of Black college grads have these worthless degrees, which are only salable in the public sector and social work NGO's - which generally don't pay very well.

And look at the date in the bolded assertion above: 1979. That is about the time when colleges, fearful of being branded "racist," started admitting substandard Blacks, and offering these worthless majors so they didn't all fail out.

The wage gap for Black college grads is not race-driven; it is driven by the quality of the majors of graduates. Blacks are almost non-existent in Engineering and the STEM subjects, which is why those very majors are being watered down RIGHT NOW, so that Blacks can arguably graduate with those degrees.

So what appears to be a stunning example of racial discrimination is nothing more than employers discriminating on the basis of the apparent value of prospective employees. Which is as it should be.

And the same points can be made on every other shocking assertion above. Racial discrimination in employment still exists to a very small extent, but given the number of potential employers in this country, there is no reason why ANY BLACK PERSON should have their career impaired by racism.

If whitey is discriminating against darky then why do they allow darky Asians to make more?

In America, Asian workers made the highest average individual income at $78,539.86

The average White Non-Hispanic worker made $70,370.48.

Are you sure that whitey is the slave master and not darky Asians?

Then captain race baiter ignores the well known facts about the consequences of a fatherless home

1. Poverty

– Children in father-absent homes are almost four times more likely to be poor. In 2011, 12 percent of children in married-couple families were living in poverty, compared to 44 percent of children in mother-only families.

2. Drug and Alcohol Abuse

– The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services states, “Fatherless children are at a dramatically greater risk of drug and alcohol abuse.”

3. Physical and Emotional Health

– A study of 1,977 children age 3 and older living with a residential father or father figure found that children living with married biological parents had significantly fewer externalizing and internalizing behavioral problems than children living with at least one non-biological parent.

4. Educational Achievement

– Children in grades 7-12 who have lived with at least one biological parent, youth that experienced divorce, separation, or nonunion birth reported lower grade point averages than those who have always lived with both biological parents.
– Children living with their married biological father tested at a significantly higher level than those living with a nonbiological father.

5. Crime

– Adolescents living in intact families are less likely to engage in delinquency than their peers living in non-intact families. Compared to peers in intact families, adolescents in single-parent families and stepfamilies were more likely to engage in delinquency. This relationship appeared to be operating through differences in family processes—parental involvement, supervision, monitoring, and parentchild closeness—between intact and non-intact families.

6. Sexual Activity and Teen Pregnancy

– A study using a sample of 1409 rural southern adolescents (851 females and 558 males) aged 11 – 18 years, investigated the correlation between father absence and self-reported sexual activity. The results revealed that adolescents in father-absence homes were more likely to report being sexually active compared to adolescents living with their fathers.

And here is the fun part, race has NOTHING to do with any of it. Problem is, 70% of black homes are fatherless, but not all of them are, like this kid growing up who had two parents

Now go home and support your damn kids like a man!

A white man trying to tell somebody how race doesn't matter. Lol! Single moms have boyfriends. Your 70 percent number is incorrect. Larry Elders is a mental case. He suffers from a condition known as internalized racism whereby his esteem is so low that he accepts white supremacy. Asians face just as much discrimination as blacks. And the rest of you post is garbage.

This guy came from a fatherless home. I would say he's done better than your example. Fatherless homes aren't the problem, but white men like you seek excuses rather than facing the truth.

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 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.”

“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

“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.”

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.

African Americans are paid less than whites at every education level

]Yep, all this stuff is made up by liberals to keep blacks voting for democrats. On top of that, these things only happen in democrat cities. Yessir!

Don't worry, you and your fellow DemoKKKrats are fixing these problem by voting for people like this:

Sam Clemens had a famous saying that is apropos: "There are lies, damned lied, and statistics."

Let's take one example from the above assertions for illustration: "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."

So let's look at people with a bachelor's degree. They are not all equal. How many white college grads have degrees in "Ethnic Studies" (or similar nonsense)? Communications? Sociology? How many white grads have degrees from historically Black colleges and universities? Very few.

These degrees are worthless, and a large percentage of Black college grads have these worthless degrees, which are only salable in the public sector and social work NGO's - which generally don't pay very well.

And look at the date in the bolded assertion above: 1979. That is about the time when colleges, fearful of being branded "racist," started admitting substandard Blacks, and offering these worthless majors so they didn't all fail out.

The wage gap for Black college grads is not race-driven; it is driven by the quality of the majors of graduates. Blacks are almost non-existent in Engineering and the STEM subjects, which is why those very majors are being watered down RIGHT NOW, so that Blacks can arguably graduate with those degrees.

So what appears to be a stunning example of racial discrimination is nothing more than employers discriminating on the basis of the apparent value of prospective employees. Which is as it should be.

And the same points can be made on every other shocking assertion above. Racial discrimination in employment still exists to a very small extent, but given the number of potential employers in this country, there is no reason why ANY BLACK PERSON should have their career impaired by racism.

All of this is incorrect. Whites with Art degrees are managing retail businesses, so let's cease with the excuses.

I find your comments laughable given the years whites have cheated on entrance exams and have gotten admitted into colleges. Your entire post is full of racist comments yet you claim race plays no role in anything.

Who the fuck do you think you're talking to with this bullshit. I'm not as dumb as mizmolly, oddball and Votto. 1979 was 14 years after the civil rights act was passed and racism by whites was still going strong. So much for you being blamed for something that happened 150 years ago.

The same things happen now.

Secondly many businesses have training programs for employees they plan on moving into management whereby they learn all about the business then a placed into management. And whites have degrees in Ethnic Studies. You also have whites with philosophy, anthropology, and foreign language degrees being hired by businesses. So your post is nothing but more white racist drivel. This seems to be your specialty.

Dominique, a Black electrical engineering doctoral student, found herself in an awkward situation in the lounge of a hotel where she had been attending a conference on science.

A white man at her table assumed a nearby Black woman was on the hotel cleaning staff, so he asked her to clean their table. The woman did as she was asked, but in the process she informed him that not only was she a scientist attending the same conference as he, but she was also the keynote speaker.

Rather than apologize for his erroneous assumption, the man cracked a joke.

“But she cleans so good,” the man told everyone at the table. “Can we say: ‘Dual career opportunity?’” – as if an accomplished scientist would need an “opportunity” to clean tables.

All of the white folks at the table stared at Dominique (not her real name), seemingly waiting on her approval of the wisecrack. Caught off guard, Dominique faked a laugh. Her white table mates broke out in laughter, too, but it didn’t seem fake – it sounded hearty and real.

This incident is by no means unique. It represents just one of about 300 such stories that I’ve collected over the past decade or so as a researcher of structural racism in STEM fields: science, technology, engineering and math.

Through my research, I’ve come to see that – for Black and Hispanic STEM students – these instances of being stereotyped are quite common. Consequently, these students experience a sort of racial fatigue.

Racial stereotypes drive students of color away from STEM, but many still persist

Coping with racial stereotypes that permeate STEM culture is like having another full-time job, argues a researcher who studies racism in these fields.

No, you are a lot dumber than me.
Cheating on entrance exams is not a racial issue. As we saw in the news, the wealthy parents were responsible for some of it. I suppose now you will say only whites cheat. For someone who thinks he is smarter than everyone else, your posts prove you aren’t. Having Sociology degrees just show you couldn’t succeed in getting a real useful degree.
