Absolutely. Also, do these people think that schools in poor white areas also aren’t underfunded for the exact same reasons? This is video’s arguments are very flimsy
@@aaronlandry3934 False argument. There was no argument made that poor whites go to better schools. The argument is that if you are born white in America you have a higher probability of getting ahead than a non-white person. The argument made is that there was deliberate bias in choosing which district to red-line.
Ed Bruce No, this video’s argument is based on blatant stereotypes that every non-white person is poor and is therefore disadvantaged in life in multiple ways. However, reality pokes several holes into an argument this flimsy. The mere existence of poor white people debunks the entire part about race, because if it were race based, poor white areas wouldn’t also be redlined. Additionally, it intentionally leaves out things such as Affirmative Action and mandatory diversity requirements for companies, because they contradict other points claimed in here that were likely drawn from some flimsy Sociology “studies” that cherry-picked evidence to go off of (imagine Sociology being unscientific. Unbelievable, I know.).
@@aaronlandry3934 I cast my vote here as well, the fact is education has been the down right culprit in much of today's issues. Much of education is wish washed into only providing a single perspective instead of exploring history to its fullest (Good and the Bad). The other thing is many cities that have high minority low wage populations happen to be cities with many corrupt politicians for many years. Keep voting them in and you will never see change in your area.

Because if you ever learn the facts and know how the creator of this video manipulates the viewer and pivots into "systemic racism" you'd realize this is a race baiter and race hustler that's misinforming and miseducating the viewer. This is literally race war propaganda.
I live in a rural county. I'm in one of very few conservative counties in my state. We have some of the lowest property taxes in our state. We also have a lower population because the area is primarily rural. Very few "neighborhoods" exist where i live. Yet, our schools have consistently been named as some of the best in the state. We have schools with playgrounds and fields for lacrosse, football and baseball. (even at the elementary school) Tax revenue is hardly the primary reason for a school to be good or bad, it's the people in it. Other than that, it's just a building.
@@leftoverporkchop9972 not quite, redlining rules change by state, county, and town (again depending on the state) It's not federal so it can vary on how the state wants to fund rural areas.
@@nutella1343 not to mention after covid the schools received billions for upgrading HVAC systems etc. yet here recently they are closing schools as the summer temps arrive because they don't have airconditioning.
Oh please. This is clearly classism. This is like saying a poor white person lives better than a rich black person JUST BECAUSE they are white,which is entirely untrue. Switch the roles and see that this is classism. Next time try a video on a black student and a white student from similar backgrounds, status and family wealth and see the immense difference. It's all about class.
If poverty effects the black community disproportionately, then addressing poverty will aid them disproportionately too. One thing that can be done to help is deal with illegal immigration. Illegals compete with our own potential labor pool. Caesar Chavez, Mexican-American union organizer understood this and was against illegal immigration. I'm a latino (fuck that "latinx" bullshit the leftists are peddling) but I'm first and foremost a US patriot. I don't want people to suffer, but I feel my moral obligation is to other US citizens first.
Sure - your statement isn't wrong about matters that do relate with land/wealth (i.e. school resources, as mentioned at the start of the video). However you should also consider that only 10% of non-Hispanic white Americans live in poverty, while 26% of black Americans do (one in fucking four). Ideally you would want a system that means that black people aren't 2.6 times more likely to be in a poverty-stricken school district. Other issues such as incarceration (probably causing the greatest negative impact on black Americans as it becomes a lifetime sentence for the prisoner and causes mass disturbance in their families, with fatherless children often shown to have much, much more difficult upbringings) have more clear racial biases, but again, as you point out, could be related back to poverty. Black Americans have traditionally been incarcerated for "poor" drugs such as crack or heroine, while white Americans don't particularly suffer similar consequences for "rich" drugs, most notably cocaine. So yes, there is no doubt that racism is linked to poverty, but it's more likely that the relationship is inverse to what you suggest - racism causes poverty.
It sounds like redlining was done around poor African American neighborhoods more so than poor white neighborhoods. That’s what the video seems to be saying and re-enforcing with the fact that poor white people have been more likely to get a loan than middle class black people.
As someone who grew up in a poor white slum. daughterclam is not entirely accurate. We do not tend to get loans because we tend to be in far too much debt. Our cars get towed. There's barely any food to put on the table. Clothing comes from Walmart or other cheap places and rarely. The schooling is only good if you are lucky enough to find a slum in a decent neighborhood, or if the district covers a good neighborhood along with a bad one. There are much more African Americans in poverty than white's but the only way poverty is better for the white community is the job situation. It's only somewhat better for the white household though if you are comparing someone who is black to a single mom who isn't overly attractive. I love these videos for educational purposes because too many priviledged white don't realize these things, but I do admit it is detrimental to the poverty stricken white community since these videos do tend to cause people to determine if you are priviledged based on your skin color.
That’s what I was thinking how is this racist this happens all over the world it’s not white Privilege there is no such thing it’s just life there is all kind of people livening in Poverty not just black people
They did that on purpose. If you actually watch the video, they made a point in giving him a black sounding name because studies have shown white sounding resumes get more interview requests than other ethnic names. There are many studies where in an experiment where there's the same resume and the only variable is the name, the whtie names get more opprotunities. 3:05
This also applies to Hispanics in the US. Los Angeles an example. The low funded schools are segregated with 95 percent Hispanics…teachers underpaid and constantly pink slipped, and all mentioned in the video for African Americans. As well as teachers treating you like you are dumb for speaking Spanish.
This isu true, but I don't see yall speaking out against it, it seems like black folks have to fight yall battle.And they shouldn't unless ur black hispanic. I hear black fols say black and brown, but I don't hear hisapnics saying black and brown. Hispanic is not a race by the way its just a culture
I understand and agree wt what you are saying but brown people fall in the black category too y'all are black people too the first slave trade started in south America first
@@thenanc100 So asking that you speak English in a school that teaches in English is "treating you like you're dumb"? Right. Anything to keep the bullshit narrative going, right?
Maybe if people take more time in grooming their children the schools could be a better place. It starts at home it's not the teacher's fault. Money can't build a better person if they have no interest in changing their habits and behavior.
Train better teachers. They’re the ones that inspire or quell the dreams of children. If the child has no one to rely on in their life, then a good teacher that listens and cares and encourages can save them from poverty and failure.
I spent the vast majority of my childhood in an underdeveloped Chinese village that did not even have a sewage system 15 years ago. My relatives told me "American companies will not give you any decent jobs because they are racist towards yellow-skinned people". I recently graduated with my master's and is now working in finance. I'm not saying I made it. I'm not saying racism doesn't exist in this country. I'm just saying if you are lucky enough to be a legal resident in the U.S, and you are healthy, the chances are good that you can crawl your way out of any shit hole.
I am a 52 year old white male, have never owned a new vehicle, never owned a house, did not go to college and basically live paycheck to paycheck. I have never been married and have no children. I don't recall ever taking the SAT let alone taking a "prep class". I never had a tutor. I got into some trouble as a kid but never did anything stupid enough to get arrested or been in jail. I have worked since the age of 16 and worked full time since I turned 18. Both my parents worked, my dad had multiple jobs to keep my family fed and housed, all of them blue collar work. Neither of my parents went to college, only one of my siblings went to college but did not finish. My dad made sure to involve me with any work being done on or around the house, be it yard work, home repairs or even basic housework. My parents took me to church every Sunday, we ate dinner together most nights and my parents were sure to "practice what they preached". There was never alcohol allowed in the house and my parents never drank or smoked in front of us kids. I have seen many examples of racism and have been the victim of it before. I have seen and known many people of different ethnicities that were successful and some that were not but have never seen anything to suggest that "success" was one sided and based off of race. Based off my life experience and observations I find the idea of "systemic racism" very hard to believe.
I am white and grew up relatively poor. However, my family were able to easily obtain a mortgage and buy a home in the area they desired. I had access to great Schools. Thanks to living in thriving community I was able to get my first job at 15 and I have never been discriminated against because of my skin color. Just because you're poor, doesn't mean you don't have privileges.

Aerospace Engineer99 I agree. In addition, if we follow the logic of the presentation, when people of African descent use “white sounding names,” are they then “appropriating” from the European culture? I believe this ideology is a slippery slope. Racism exists. However, to claim present systemic racism is a bit difficult to totally conceive. I think too many people compare themselves to others when they should be comparing themselves to how they were yesterday.

As a young girl, I lived on the South Side of Chicago. My mom and I routinely told the bus to downtown Chicago, through the "Black Belt", a neighborhood where black families settled during the Great Migration. At first, the area was kept up. There were many black professionals who lived there and white landlords kept up the buildings. Due to discrimination, these professionals couldn't get real estate or bank to sell them the property. After a while, redlining set in and buildings got shabby. Once the Open Housing laws were passed, many black professionals left the area to buy homes in other areas in better condition. Because the area was redlined, landlords couldn't get $$ to repair, black families couldn't get loans to buy. I literally watched that community crumble before my eyes, with the poorest left in the rubble. The schools got fewer resources and small businesses dried up. I WAS A WITNESS! IT WAS IN THE NEWSPAPERS! JUST BECAUSE THE WHITE POWER STRUCTURE LIES DOESN'T MEAN EVERYONE LIES. I SAW THIS HAPPEN.
As an Asian, despite facing significant historical challenges like discrimination and exclusionary laws, have risen to lead in income, education, and other socioeconomic metrics. Born as a black in US with citizenship VS Asian immigrated from non-english, poor country. Although former is way easier than latter to success, Black people just choosed not to. Stop complainning systemetic racism which does not exist.

Would have liked to have seen more facts, resources etc to support the statements made in the video rather than simply giving a hypothetical narrative and calling it true.

I live in a mediumly wealthy neighborhood. I have 5 black family’s on my street alone. And school districts aren’t based on color, they are based on the city or school district you live.
I grew up in one, and our high school with around 1000 students, give or take, had maybe 10 black people and ~20 hispanics (including me). This school covered three towns as well. This isn't a defense of the video. I'm just saying personal anecdotes are not good reference points for opinions.
This is your personal anecdote though. No one said there isnt any successful Black families. It seems you want to believe Black families and White families have a equal socioeconomic status on average which is not the case.
this IS racism. even though the character Jamal got into a top university, just because he had a black sounding name the employers didn’t give him the same opportunities
Well that's exactly the thing. A lot of systemic racism stems from a class issue. A class issue created and mainly oppressing blacks and colored people because areas are still being effected by policies set in place a hundred years ago I.E. the red lining neighborhoods.

SirGarforth Same could be said for Republicans. When is the last time Republican lawmakers have helped the working class? And yet the working white trudge out dutifully and blindly to do their duty, believing that if tax rates are cut, services slashed, they’ll somehow rise out of their misery. Compare the working class lifestyle of U.S. and Canadian border towns (where capitalism is embraced but social policies are also tolerated).

@ He is correct though. If you were to take Jaden Smith and compare his life to the life of say “Trent”, who grew up in a trailer park, you’d get the exact same results. Does this mean that the system is racist to white people? No, race has nothing to do with the outcome here. The common link is economic struggles, not racial ones. Another factor that may very well be relevant here is marital rates vs single motherhood rates. Naturally, a two parent household will be able to better provide for their children.

It translates into them getting hired about a year earlier than White people that got an 87% on their test. That's just one example of a free handout. There is racist from all races. In these days that the United States when a Black man can get the most votes to become president twice, I see no more need for affirmative action. Once again, this is just one example. I grew up in a poor neighborhood with a high amount of Hispanics. We all went to the same schools, churches, stores, parks, etc. We played together. Got in trouble together.

What I continue to find amusing is how “Hollywood” portrays blacks in movies and commercials. Although most criminals are blacks, the “good blacks” appear in scenes where their homes are beautiful and their life styles are very expensive. The interracial families are dressed in designer clothes. The kids go to awesome looking schools. They all drive around in fancy looking automobiles. The parents are doctors, lawyers, educators, highly ranked military and police men and women, politicians, and businessmen. Their kids play sports and attend top ranked colleges. I never saw these movies when I was a kid living in a Southie project! Gosh darn, we’ve come a long way as a country. Racial tensions have been calmed! The television commercials are even better. They’d have us believe that the U.S. population is one of interracial lovers, parents, and kids. Everyone is dressed in fine clothing, has a nice home, and has an expensive car. Seriously, this is wonderful. Blacks dominate sports, government, education, communications, businesses, medicine, entertainment, etc. Finally moving on! God Bless America.
@Andre K said, "I think all schools should be funded equally based on the size." I think schools should be funded by the students via vouchers that allows school choice even if it isn't in their district or if it is private schools. But unfortunately, the liberal elite want to protect failing public schools by denying parents their choice in education. Marva Collins was an educator who aimed high for poor black students in Chicago. [From an article after her death in 2015] "She began with four students, including her daughter, charging $80 a month in tuition. Enrollment at the school, on Chicago’s South Side, grew to more than 200, in classes from prekindergarten through eighth grade. It remained in operation for more than 30 years.

@@UncleBearski I agree with that also. The school boundaries need to go as well. Where I grew up there was no such thing as school boundaries. Kids were traveling from the country to attend school in the city.
Funny enough, I know two black guys named “Jamil” and “Jamar”, an old white man named “Tyrone”, but I’ve never met a black guy named “Jamal” or “Tyrone”, despite the stereotype
A good example of systemic or institutional racism is showing preference in college admissions to people of color even when their test scores are lower than those of white or Asian people.
i will never imagine how anyone thinks that this is an issue even close to the scale of actual systemic racism, especially enough to comment it as if it’s a counter point to this video. just admit you’re a closed minded moron that refuses to understand exactly what we all know as fact. Systemic racism exists and favors the white majority. what else explains racial disparities? i’m guessing you couldn’t offer an explanation. thanks for trying though! maybe next time when your IQ increase or you reach the 8th grade, you’ll do better!
@@bluesblooms systematic is defined as done or acting according to a fixed plan or system; methodical. so essentially what this means is that literally every school, and everyone of authority periodically have a meeting saying, we have to do this this and that so that these people can't get ahead in life. in reality its false. watch the video Ben Shapiro DEBUNKS Viral 'Systemic Racism Explained' Video. he literally debunks every statement in this video
@@bluesblooms God damn. Your grammar is awful and your reply is equivalent to a "no u" in a non-joking manner. How about applying some intellectual discourse?
If this is actually what systemic racism is, I don’t think the terminology is great. While it certainly started with racism, it seems to be much more based on economics rather than race at this point.
Absolutely agree, the starting point was racist, but technically this is a classist issue. And we now the USA is a country that does not protect it´s poor.
@@lMobiuscidl agreed but it's definitely more of a racial thing as the video shows...white lower class families are more preferred by banks to give loans to over black middle and upper class families.
Nonya I didn’t. But that’s not systemic. Those things are issues with individuals within organizations or organizations as a whole. Plus, you don’t really know if it’s based on race or more based on their economic status again, that’s only an assumption. Realistically it’s probably a mixture or racism and classism.
The fact this video started with a black person in a poor neighbourhood and a white person in a wealthy neighbourhood does a bad job at proving racism but classism
... did you watch the video though? It was only about 2 generations ago that classism was not based on race, which explains why there is a large disparity present between races. Over time, this disparity should subside however.
Geo Van But it’s not classism based on race. Maybe 40 years ago, yeah. Today those things are separate. But there’s not really opportunities that a poor white person has that a poor black person doesn’t. In fact with the all the affirmative action and race-based scholarships, it’s seems like black people are having more opportunities. If the video wanted to demonstrate a present day systematic racism, it should have compared a black person and white person of the same economic circumstances.
@@Solo-vh9fm That's why it's called systemic racism. Because the racism happened 50 or maybe 100 years ago, but the impact is still greatly affecting certain groups now even though the racism itself has dropped dramatically in recent years.
Geo Van No. It would be systematic racism from the past. But people are trying to prove that systematic racism is still a thing today and this video does a terrible job at proving that. Could just change the races around and make a video on how white people are affected by systematic racism? But no I wouldn’t because that’s stupid and the video demonstrates classism at most.
You can't stop people from having implicit biases. These stereotypes will always come to people's minds, and they themselves know that many of the stereotypes are based on true tendencies. But you can get people to remind themselves that not all individuals of a certain ethnicity necessarily conform to the stereotypes.

@Andrea Mendenhall I clearly states that redlining started after slavery and during Jim Crow. Jim Crow only ended 50+ years ago. So I would say the affects from redlining are still great.
One thing not mentioned- are students from poorer backgrounds are more likely to have to work throughout school and universities, which can interfere with their study time.
I'm a white kid from a lower-middle class family and had to work through college because none of the scholarships were available to me due the color of my skin. If you want to bring up not mentioning things.
Cali Marie My point is that inequality is systemic. Someone from a poorer background has the cards stacked against them - black or white. Americans have this idea that anyone who works hard enough can become wealthy, when that is not true. Some people can work their way to wealth, but many can’t. Students who have less time to study may get poorer marks, and so not get the best jobs or may have to drop out. The relevance to race is a higher proportion of African Americans come from poorer backgrounds. This is not a conscious bias, but is a reality. BTW the poorer American economic safety nets (compared to other OECD) is something I think Americans need to think about. Many of the issues being raised in this video affect poorer whites. So I would expect some of the solutions being proposed would be supported by anyone who is from a disadvantaged background, because they would help right across the racial divide.
I feel like everyone who falls in line with the BLM ideology are suffering from a form of PTSD. Like how a soldier coming home from war can be set off by the slightest thing, anything that can be remotely perceived as even the slightest bit racist/bigoted in any way makes them think that the country as a whole is just a breath away from slavery times or Nazi Germany.
Doesn't mean the system itself doesn't have these biases. Yes, Black people in America are better off than they were before, especially compared with segregation and slavery, but that doesn't mean that there aren't still systems in place that knowingly or worse unknowingly enforce rules that discriminate mainly people of color, especially black people and the poor as well. This is a system built by rich white men meant to benefit mainly them, now sure there are rich black Americans too, but the larger percentage of blacks are poor in comparison to white people due to many policies with favored white people more. Take the beginning of the suburbs with the Levittown, they were originally segregated or for whites only, that wasn't that long ago historically and that still has an effect today.

@@aurenkleige Nah this video explains the basics of systemic racism, it's meant for kids in elementary school. If you want a better explanation you can just look it up lmao
Not once did they even hint at the concept of personal responsibility. The most important factor in educational success is not whether or not your school has shiney new facilities. The most important factor is what is going on at home. Kids that are from families with a mom and a dad will have a better chance of success that those from single parent homes. Kids that have successful parents as a role model have a better chance than kids who don't have good role models at home. This is not a question of skin color. Poor white kids from the trailer park are disadvantaged in the same way as anyone else. Why do these people who are always wailing about racism never want to talk about the impact of broken families?
Because that makes people think critically about their actions and people don’t vote for Democrats when they think about their actions. CRT isn’t even correct because Asian Americans earn more than white families do on average (“evidence of Asian Supremacy”) and white Latino families are pretty poor on average. The most common link is not race, but Education. Naturally, someone with only a high school diploma’s income is not going to stack well against someone with a bachelors degree’s income. Asian Americans invest very heavily into education, so stats match up
the ones that suffer is not because of skin collar it's because all I care to do is contribute to the community and do my job and other people only focus on fucking as much money as possible out of whoever will take it.
white privilege has nothing to do with how much money someone makes. It is based on the fact that you may be given better opportunities in life just because you are white, in comparison to your black and poc counterparts as even if they are fully qualified for a certain job they will be less likely to get it because they are black/poc
when I like people A woman was murdered for saying All Lives Matter. This was a fundamental truth for actual Civil Rights Activists in the 1960’s. Yet, BLM opposes this fundamental truth and will shoot you for saying it. Are they really similar?
So I didn't see how racism came into play. This is the plight of coming from a poor family and the family can overcome just like many poor white family's and black family's did and do.
It comes into play because racism causes people to not get the jobs that their white counterparts gets.Thus schools are not funded as well for black children which isn’t fair. Why watch such a video to literally not watch it?
@@Bilbosh4ggins Not really. I watched both Ben's and Vaush's response and Vaush's points and counterarguments were really bad. For example he said charter schools don't increase educational outcomes for minorities which is blatantly untrue. Another example is that he simply dismissed Ben's evidence that racial discrimination in employment goes away when the black names are something like Jefferson, which indicates that it's not necessarily the blackness of the applicant that employers are taking into account but rather their socioeconomic status as reflected by their names. If employers are using their names as a sorting device to infer socioeconomic status and the probability that the applicants are going to make good workers is not the same among black and white workers. You could only conclude that this was a result of discrimination if it was the case that the behaviors, attitudes to work, productivities, of black workers are going to be the same as white workers. There is no reason to infer this to be the case. In fact black people typically go to poorer schools, which you may argue is the result of other forms of discrimination which is a separate issue to tackle, but it is true that black people graduate from schools with far poorer educational outcomes than white schools. In essence if a resume says that both the black applicant and the white applicant both have a high school diploma, while on the resume it may look exactly the same the black diploma does not indicate the same thing about the potential productivity of the black person as it would for a white person. The simple reason for this is because black diplomas from black schools are not the same as white diplomas from white schools and indicate different levels of potential performance. Employers cannot merely judge every applicant as an individual without using heuristics like the fact that black people on average graduate from worse high schools than white people, and thus are more likely to have poorer performances on the job. The cost of judging everyone as an individual is often quite high, because no one has all the information in the world. This means we have to economize on the limited information that we have available to us in the world and employers must do the same, often by using race as a heuristic measure to ascertain socioeconomic status, educational outcomes, and criminal background/behavior to help determine their likely potential productivity and profit they'll bring the company. This logic is corroborated by the fact that employers who have the capacity and find it more profitable to take upon larger costs in their employment process to judge people more as individuals and not have to resort to as many sorting devices, actually hire more blacks then other businesses. In other words businesses are not discriminating against people simply because they're black but because their name indicates certain things about their potential productivity that trying to investigate further may be too costly.

The problem with the idea of 'systemic racism' is that it is not a predicable model, nor does it take in account the true systematic co-motivators for the problem. It is a conflict-perspective view of society which I feel it the worst social approach there is. A large part of the problem never spoke upon is the car-based welfare only to poor driven urban planning we have created. It was even mentioned in the video about the local tax problem. That has the major impact that lead to Jamal living in poverty and crime. The way we develop our city into isolated communities and neighborhoods that are solely residential means that we are highly subjected to the effects of property, people are more protective of their neighborhoods, and rich and poor have access to vastly different resources. Throw the fact that public transportation sucks and the lack of blended public spaces, all of this has far more reaching implications on poorer people than systematic racism does in the modern world. The redlining does exist as does other racial motivated issues with police. I would never deny things where there is rightful evidence of such things, but beyond what we can substantiate, all else is speculative, which goes back to my original problem with the term. It's used simultaneously to be descriptive and prescriptive in a way. When we try to understand something we don't prescribe the motivations of all actors in the system as a foregone conclusion. It is totally possible that what looks like racism is motivated by multiple factors in reality. Also, it is important to know why the racism is occuring in the first place and not be essentialist about what the social-psychology of racism is. This is the realm of moral prescriptivism and is likely to actually have unintended outcomes for the people it proports to help.
I’m not so sure about what you’ve said. While I agree with roughly the first half of this. You are presenting this as: “if there are a multitude of factors that contribute to ‘x’ then systematic racism is foreclosed as a possible cause.” I also agree that systemic racism is too easily and freely used by people, often to the detriment of the affected but, in all of what you said, you never actually addressed why these race neutral mechanisms do statistically impact certain races more than others. Again, while I agree that the charge of systemic racism should not be so freely levied, I also get the feeling that many people irrationally recoil when they hear the term and seek to obscure the situation by “moving the goalpost” and essentially ask for direct evidence of a literal cabal making overtly racist decisions to disenfranchise a minority group which ignores the “systemic” component of the term. Lastly, based on what you said, why do you think racism exists?
@@jenlet3956 Answering why racism exists is a tough one and I think you could breakdown racism into several forms. Obvious being ignorant due to lack of interaction with a race or ethnicity and willingful hateful with a doctrine are different forms of racism but to the people experiencing them they might feel the same. I think ignorance and fear are the two largest driving factors, while the human propensity for dogmatic thinking and tribalism are what can amplify these to larger forms of hatred. Education and integration are ideally the solution, but cultural proclivities can often serve as a wedge for two races or ethnicities from intergrating with one another. People will forever notice physical differences. People will forever abide by dogmatic thought about social interaction. And people will always adhere to the group by which they most identify. This is a sad reality, but I think maximizing positive interactions, dispelling stereotypes, and making society both functionally and systematically fair in terms of access to resources and education are the best shots we have.
Your analysis is flawed. It was actually the passage of the federal reserve act and Nixon's total removal of the gold standard in 1971 that finalized the what you are experiencing right now. But I don't have time to explain it here.
@@ameya5054 It allowed the government to spend freely and irresponsibly thereby allowing them to "purchase" votes with "gifts" from the treasury.

You can also study the writings of the esteemed author and educator Thomas Sowell. Did you really ask me if "systemic racism" exists? I counter with, "Do unicorns exist?" Well in my world, unicorns are real. My daughter argues against my position and I simply state, "Who makes the pie?" That is all!
Only way to fix it is to cut some funding off of programs that are being overfunded or for people that donate to charity to actually make sure their money is going into the communities.

@Vlad Xavier And conservatives are very often very heavily opposed to policies meant to address the kinds of things that very disproportionately cause very poor areas to be susceptible to this problem.

Again, these are systemic problems. The only way to fix a systemic problem is with systemic solutions. And conservatives are usually staunchly opposed to this.
@Vlad Xavier "You fix the neighborhood by allowing families..." People getting married is not going to solve the funding issues of education due to property taxes, the issues of redlining or implicit biases at all. Stop peddling this blatantly idiotic point.
A lot of people in the comments are very decisive about if this is racism or classism but to be honest it’s all the same if your community is already at the bottom of the social totem pole but still racism or classism has no place in government mandated institutions, all public schools need to be state funded and equal all across the board but by having them primarily funded by real estate tax literally by definition makes each and every school unequal from the next, and I know a lot of middle class parents will see this and naturally disagree because they feel they’ve worked hard to be able to put their kids in communities with good schools so they can get ahead and good if you truly feel that strongly about it then put your kids into private schools but when it comes to public schools there is no tangible explanation or excuse for why this inequality should be justified and allowed to continue, it’s not the damn kids fault that their parents couldn’t put them into better neighborhoods with better schools so why are we taking it out on the kids!? Equal opportunity in America is a lie and always will be alive as long as this continues
You touch on a good point for certain, it is set based off the immediate community per school. But always a but right, most millionaires are not super educated which tells me there is another missing factor to the equation. I believe it is mindset as you can look and see different mentalities across the different classes. I would like to find a handful of the poorest communities and start pumping a stream of positivity into them, and see what it does. Then build on it. Once they are thinking in more positive terms start helping to create positive opportunities etc.... The other option is just more of the same. If you think there is any merit in trying this let me know. If it sounds stupid let me know.

However the practice does the exact contrary it allows certain groups or individuals to get into college with a lower SAT score and GPA. This is supposed to be a boost or an advantage that is based on something that other groups have no control over.

Conclusion: stop funding schools using property taxes.
literally !!!!!!!
I live in a rural county. I'm in one of very few conservative counties in my state. We have some of the lowest property taxes in our state. We also have a lower population because the area is primarily rural. Very few "neighborhoods" exist where i live. Yet, our schools have consistently been named as some of the best in the state. We have schools with playgrounds and fields for lacrosse, football and baseball. (even at the elementary school) Tax revenue is hardly the primary reason for a school to be good or bad, it's the people in it. Other than that, it's just a building.
@@leftoverporkchop9972 not quite, redlining rules change by state, county, and town (again depending on the state) It's not federal so it can vary on how the state wants to fund rural areas.

@@garlandowls1134 what?
The issue is that people of color are more likely to be poor due to reasons explained in the video. Classism and racism are intertwined.
@@aaaah540 Not always. If they were intertwined there would be no multi-billionaire black people. Only whites would be wealthy.
If poverty effects the black community disproportionately, then addressing poverty will aid them disproportionately too. One thing that can be done to help is deal with illegal immigration. Illegals compete with our own potential labor pool. Caesar Chavez, Mexican-American union organizer understood this and was against illegal immigration. I'm a latino (fuck that "latinx" bullshit the leftists are peddling) but I'm first and foremost a US patriot. I don't want people to suffer, but I feel my moral obligation is to other US citizens first.
Could someone explain why it called racism instead of poverty? Are not the same applicable to any poor district regardless of race?
👏👏👏
Sure - your statement isn't wrong about matters that do relate with land/wealth (i.e. school resources, as mentioned at the start of the video). However you should also consider that only 10% of non-Hispanic white Americans live in poverty, while 26% of black Americans do (one in fucking four). Ideally you would want a system that means that black people aren't 2.6 times more likely to be in a poverty-stricken school district. Other issues such as incarceration (probably causing the greatest negative impact on black Americans as it becomes a lifetime sentence for the prisoner and causes mass disturbance in their families, with fatherless children often shown to have much, much more difficult upbringings) have more clear racial biases, but again, as you point out, could be related back to poverty. Black Americans have traditionally been incarcerated for "poor" drugs such as crack or heroine, while white Americans don't particularly suffer similar consequences for "rich" drugs, most notably cocaine. So yes, there is no doubt that racism is linked to poverty, but it's more likely that the relationship is inverse to what you suggest - racism causes poverty.
It sounds like redlining was done around poor African American neighborhoods more so than poor white neighborhoods. That’s what the video seems to be saying and re-enforcing with the fact that poor white people have been more likely to get a loan than middle class black people.
As someone who grew up in a poor white slum. daughterclam is not entirely accurate. We do not tend to get loans because we tend to be in far too much debt. Our cars get towed. There's barely any food to put on the table. Clothing comes from Walmart or other cheap places and rarely. The schooling is only good if you are lucky enough to find a slum in a decent neighborhood, or if the district covers a good neighborhood along with a bad one. There are much more African Americans in poverty than white's but the only way poverty is better for the white community is the job situation. It's only somewhat better for the white household though if you are comparing someone who is black to a single mom who isn't overly attractive. I love these videos for educational purposes because too many priviledged white don't realize these things, but I do admit it is detrimental to the poverty stricken white community since these videos do tend to cause people to determine if you are priviledged based on your skin color.
That’s what I was thinking how is this racist this happens all over the world it’s not white Privilege there is no such thing it’s just life there is all kind of people livening in Poverty not just black people
They really named the black kid "Jamal". LMFAOOOOO
I know like its a good video but like 😭😭😭
XD STOP
They did that on purpose. If you actually watch the video, they made a point in giving him a black sounding name because studies have shown white sounding resumes get more interview requests than other ethnic names. There are many studies where in an experiment where there's the same resume and the only variable is the name, the whtie names get more opprotunities. 3:05
That was the point. To show how implicit bias works...
It’s for the later example of “white and black sounding” names
This also applies to Hispanics in the US. Los Angeles an example. The low funded schools are segregated with 95 percent Hispanics…teachers underpaid and constantly pink slipped, and all mentioned in the video for African Americans. As well as teachers treating you like you are dumb for speaking Spanish.
This isu true, but I don't see yall speaking out against it, it seems like black folks have to fight yall battle.And they shouldn't unless ur black hispanic.

But they might still follow this system and that's why the system itself has to be abolished
Maybe if people take more time in grooming their children the schools could be a better place. It starts at home it's not the teacher's fault. Money can't build a better person if they have no interest in changing their habits and behavior.
@@KrowKaws but the system works in other places? It is what we make of it.
Train better teachers. They’re the ones that inspire or quell the dreams of children. If the child has no one to rely on in their life, then a good teacher that listens and cares and encourages can save them from poverty and failure.

I have never been married and have no children.
I don't recall ever taking the SAT let alone taking a "prep class".
I never had a tutor.
I got into some trouble as a kid but never did anything stupid enough to get arrested or been in jail.
I have worked since the age of 16 and worked full time since I turned 18.
Both my parents worked, my dad had multiple jobs to keep my family fed and housed, all of them blue collar work.
Neither of my parents went to college, only one of my siblings went to college but did not finish.
My dad made sure to involve me with any work being done on or around the house, be it yard work, home repairs or even basic housework.
My parents took me to church every Sunday, we ate dinner together most nights and my parents were sure to "practice what they preached".
There was never alcohol allowed in the house and my parents never drank or smoked in front of us kids.
I have seen many examples of racism and have been the victim of it before.

As a young girl, I lived on the South Side of Chicago. My mom and I routinely told the bus to downtown Chicago, through the "Black Belt", a neighborhood where black families settled during the Great Migration. At first, the area was kept up. There were many black professionals who lived there and white landlords kept up the buildings. Due to discrimination, these professionals couldn't get real estate or bank to sell them the property. After a while, redlining set in and buildings got shabby. Once the Open Housing laws were passed, many black professionals left the area to buy homes in other areas in better condition.
Because the area was redlined, landlords couldn't get $$ to repair, black families couldn't get loans to buy. I literally watched that community crumble before my eyes, with the poorest left in the rubble. The schools got fewer resources and small businesses dried up.
I WAS A WITNESS! IT WAS IN THE NEWSPAPERS! JUST BECAUSE THE WHITE POWER STRUCTURE LIES DOESN'T MEAN EVERYONE LIES. I SAW THIS HAPPEN.

exactly.. all this madness starts how we raise children. the values and ideas we instill to them.
He addresses generational wealth and education though. So yeah, parents play a part but the system effects what parents are able to pass down to their kids
Even though that is 100% the correct answer, this would destroy the victim narrative of this video.
monkeemash it absolutely has so much to do with parents teaching their kids! Buuut if your great grandparents were denied good educations to pass down to their offspring and denied opportunities for careers that allowed them to be home at decent hours to “raise their kids right”... your life would look sooo much different. Black people with degrees were denied roles they were qualified for based on the color of their skin and the effects have trickled down, trapping them in a loop of not having educations or time to share with their children.
@@monkeemash Did you even bother to watch the video? He clearly addresses the role parents and grandparents play in systemic racism.
How can this theory explains the undeniable economic success of people of asian descent ?
its not a theory its a fact he is talking about black people who were brought here as slaves Asians were not slaves in America read the history only blacks were slaves in this country..systemic racism was mad against black people too keep us down and in jail most of the jails in America are filled wt black people not whites or asians so what are you talking about theory wake up and get your head out of clouds we are oppressed
"but wut about ashiyun immigrants"
There's a difference between African Americans and Immigrants (including other Africans) - most 'legal' immigrant groups are better off than even the average white person, because they already had decent education/financial backing/both before coming to the states. And even though asian immigrants have been discriminated against, they were never enslaved. The after effects of Slavery and BRUTAL anti-black racism make all the difference here.
Btw, This isn't a theory dumbass it's an observation
because asians are not black people. they are not even brown people. the have fair skin just like white people. thats why
What about the fact that nearly three-quarters of black children are born to single mothers? What about gang culture and being accused of 'acting white' if you do care about studying?
White Privilege? Nope. www.google.com/amp/s/money.com/rich-families-lose-wealth/%3famp=true

Maybe I'm not privileged enough to get it. Would make sense considering a lot of you seem to have no jobs and still have money to survive somehow.
that made no sense, you should sue the school that educated you because they did a bad job
@@pisscadet clearly you don’t understand that this video has nothing to do with race, rather it has to do with economic class. It tries to illustrate it as a racial problem by simply putting a black individual in the lower class and white individual in the upper class. If you switched the characters around it would still be the same result.
@ He is correct though. If you were to take Jaden Smith and compare his life to the life of say “Trent”, who grew up in a trailer park, you’d get the exact same results. Does this mean that the system is racist to white people? No, race has nothing to do with the outcome here. The common link is economic struggles, not racial ones.
Another factor that may very well be relevant here is marital rates vs single motherhood rates. Naturally, a two parent household will be able to better provide for their children. Unfortunately, this is statistically uncommon in black American households: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/African-American_family_structure#History . This could also explain why Asian Americans are completely excluded from videos like this, as they’re usually more successful than white Americans tend to be.

@@MarcusPurpleHayes Affirmative Action is a free hand out, that all minorities get. For example, I am retired from the Postal Service. We all took a test. I got a 92%. People of color got 5 extra percent, just for being a minority. So those minorities with an 87% that were hired, were hired with my group. It translates into them getting hired about a year earlier than White people that got an 87% on their test. That's just one example of a free handout. There is racist from all races. In these days that the United States when a Black man can get the most votes to become president twice, I see no more need for affirmative action. Once again, this is just one example. I grew up in a poor neighborhood with a high amount of Hispanics. We all went to the same schools, churches, stores, parks, etc. We played together. Got in trouble together. There is nothing wrong with that. But those Hispanics get free handoust, and I didn't. So I think everyone should be treated the same. The way God wants it to be.

What I continue to find amusing is how “Hollywood” portrays blacks in movies and commercials.

The interracial families are dressed in designer clothes. The kids go to awesome looking schools. They all drive around in fancy looking automobiles. The parents are doctors, lawyers, educators, highly ranked military and police men and women, politicians, and businessmen. Their kids play sports and attend top ranked colleges. I never saw these movies when I was a kid living in a Southie project! Gosh darn, we’ve come a long way as a country. Racial tensions have been calmed! The television commercials are even better. They’d have us believe that the U.S. population is one of interracial lovers, parents, and kids. Everyone is dressed in fine clothing, has a nice home, and has an expensive car. Seriously, this is wonderful. Blacks dominate sports, government, education, communications, businesses, medicine, entertainment, etc. Finally moving on! God Bless America.

@Andre K said, "I think all schools should be funded equally based on the size." I think schools should be funded by the students via vouchers that allows school choice even if it isn't in their district or if it is private schools. But unfortunately, the liberal elite want to protect failing public schools by denying parents their choice in education. Marva Collins was an educator who aimed high for poor black students in Chicago. [From an article after her death in 2015] "She began with four students, including her daughter, charging $80 a month in tuition. Enrollment at the school, on Chicago’s South Side, grew to more than 200, in classes from prekindergarten through eighth grade. It remained in operation for more than 30 years.
Ms. Collins set high academic standards, emphasized discipline and promoted a nurturing environment. She taught phonics, the Socratic method and the classics and, she insisted, she never expected her students to fail.

The fact this video started with a black person in a poor neighbourhood and a white person in a wealthy neighbourhood does a bad job at proving racism but classism
classism based on race is racism
... did you watch the video though? It was only about 2 generations ago that classism was not based on race, which explains why there is a large disparity present between races. Over time, this disparity should subside however.
Geo Van But it’s not classism based on race. Maybe 40 years ago, yeah. Today those things are separate. But there’s not really opportunities that a poor white person has that a poor black person doesn’t. In fact with the all the affirmative action and race-based scholarships, it’s seems like black people are having more opportunities.
If the video wanted to demonstrate a present day systematic racism, it should have compared a black person and white person of the same economic circumstances.
@@Solo-vh9fm That's why it's called systemic racism. Because the racism happened 50 or maybe 100 years ago, but the impact is still greatly affecting certain groups now even though the racism itself has dropped dramatically in recent years.
Geo Van No. It would be systematic racism from the past. But people are trying to prove that systematic racism is still a thing today and this video does a terrible job at proving that.
Could just change the races around and make a video on how white people are affected by systematic racism? But no I wouldn’t because that’s stupid and the video demonstrates classism at most.
You can't stop people from having implicit biases. These stereotypes will always come to people's minds, and they themselves know that many of the stereotypes are based on true tendencies. But you can get people to remind themselves that not all individuals of a certain ethnicity necessarily conform to the stereotypes.

One thing not mentioned- are students from poorer backgrounds are more likely to have to work throughout school and universities, which can interfere with their study time.
I'm a white kid from a lower-middle class family and had to work through college because none of the scholarships were available to me due the color of my skin. If you want to bring up not mentioning things.
Cali Marie My point is that inequality is systemic. Someone from a poorer background has the cards stacked against them - black or white. Americans have this idea that anyone who works hard enough can become wealthy, when that is not true. Some people can work their way to wealth, but many can’t. Students who have less time to study may get poorer marks, and so not get the best jobs or may have to drop out.
The relevance to race is a higher proportion of African Americans come from poorer backgrounds. This is not a conscious bias, but is a reality.
BTW the poorer American economic safety nets (compared to other OECD) is something I think Americans need to think about. Many of the issues being raised in this video affect poorer whites. So I would expect some of the solutions being proposed would be supported by anyone who is from a disadvantaged background, because they would help right across the racial divide.
R F Which is why Americans need to see inequality (economic, racial etc) as a systemic issue that needs to be addressed.
That's a great point, probably just not too relevant here.

Doesn't mean the system itself doesn't have these biases. Yes, Black people in America are better off than they were before, especially compared with segregation and slavery, but that doesn't mean that there aren't still systems in place that knowingly or worse unknowingly enforce rules that discriminate mainly people of color, especially black people and the poor as well. This is a system built by rich white men meant to benefit mainly them, now sure there are rich black Americans too, but the larger percentage of blacks are poor in comparison to white people due to many policies with favored white people more. Take the beginning of the suburbs with the Levittown, they were originally segregated or for whites only, that wasn't that long ago historically and that still has an effect today.

Not once did they even hint at the concept of personal responsibility. The most important factor in educational success is not whether or not your school has shiney new facilities. The most important factor is what is going on at home. Kids that are from families with a mom and a dad will have a better chance of success that those from single parent homes. Kids that have successful parents as a role model have a better chance than kids who don't have good role models at home. This is not a question of skin color. Poor white kids from the trailer park are disadvantaged in the same way as anyone else. Why do these people who are always wailing about racism never want to talk about the impact of broken families?
Because that makes people think critically about their actions and people don’t vote for Democrats when they think about their actions.
CRT isn’t even correct because Asian Americans earn more than white families do on average (“evidence of Asian Supremacy”) and white Latino families are pretty poor on average. The most common link is not race, but Education.
Naturally, someone with only a high school diploma’s income is not going to stack well against someone with a bachelors degree’s income. Asian Americans invest very heavily into education, so stats match up

Whos here after seeing Ben Shapiro's response?
I’m here
Watch vaush’s response to Ben Shapiro, Ben is an idiot and vaush destroyed all of his arguments, same with hasanabi
@@Bilbosh4ggins Not really. I watched both Ben's and Vaush's response and Vaush's points and counterarguments were really bad. For example he said charter schools don't increase educational outcomes for minorities which is blatantly untrue. Another example is that he simply dismissed Ben's evidence that racial discrimination in employment goes away when the black names are something like Jefferson, which indicates that it's not necessarily the blackness of the applicant that employers are taking into account but rather their socioeconomic status as reflected by their names. If employers are using their names as a sorting device to infer socioeconomic status and the probability that the applicants are going to make good workers is not the same among black and white workers. You could only conclude that this was a result of discrimination if it was the case that the behaviors, attitudes to work, productivities, of black workers are going to be the same as white workers. There is no reason to infer this to be the case. In fact black people typically go to poorer schools, which you may argue is the result of other forms of discrimination which is a separate issue to tackle, but it is true that black people graduate from schools with far poorer educational outcomes than white schools. In essence if a resume says that both the black applicant and the white applicant both have a high school diploma, while on the resume it may look exactly the same the black diploma does not indicate the same thing about the potential productivity of the black person as it would for a white person. The simple reason for this is because black diplomas from black schools are not the same as white diplomas from white schools and indicate different levels of potential performance. Employers cannot merely judge every applicant as an individual without using heuristics like the fact that black people on average graduate from worse high schools than white people, and thus are more likely to have poorer performances on the job. The cost of judging everyone as an individual is often quite high, because no one has all the information in the world. This means we have to economize on the limited information that we have available to us in the world and employers must do the same, often by using race as a heuristic measure to ascertain socioeconomic status, educational outcomes, and criminal background/behavior to help determine their likely potential productivity and profit they'll bring the company. This logic is corroborated by the fact that employers who have the capacity and find it more profitable to take upon larger costs in their employment process to judge people more as individuals and not have to resort to as many sorting devices, actually hire more blacks then other businesses. In other words businesses are not discriminating against people simply because they're black but because their name indicates certain things about their potential productivity that trying to investigate further may be too costly.

The problem with the idea of 'systemic racism' is that it is not a predicable model, nor does it take in account the true systematic co-motivators for the problem.

A large part of the problem never spoke upon is the car-based welfare only to poor driven urban planning we have created. It was even mentioned in the video about the local tax problem. That has the major impact that lead to Jamal living in poverty and crime. The way we develop our city into isolated communities and neighborhoods that are solely residential means that we are highly subjected to the effects of property, people are more protective of their neighborhoods, and rich and poor have access to vastly different resources. Throw the fact that public transportation sucks and the lack of blended public spaces, all of this has far more reaching implications on poorer people than systematic racism does in the modern world. The redlining does exist as does other racial motivated issues with police. I would never deny things where there is rightful evidence of such things, but beyond what we can substantiate, all else is speculative, which goes back to my original problem with the term. It's used simultaneously to be descriptive and prescriptive in a way. When we try to understand something we don't prescribe the motivations of all actors in the system as a foregone conclusion. It is totally possible that what looks like racism is motivated by multiple factors in reality. Also, it is important to know why the racism is occuring in the first place and not be essentialist about what the social-psychology of racism is. This is the realm of moral prescriptivism and is likely to actually have unintended outcomes for the people it proports to help.
Systemic racism does not exist in America
systemic racism is Demonic behavior, THE END!
I’m not so sure about what you’ve said. While I agree with roughly the first half of this. You are presenting this as: “if there are a multitude of factors that contribute to ‘x’ then systematic racism is foreclosed as a possible cause.” I also agree that systemic racism is too easily and freely used by people, often to the detriment of the affected but, in all of what you said, you never actually addressed why these race neutral mechanisms do statistically impact certain races more than others. Again, while I agree that the charge of systemic racism should not be so freely levied, I also get the feeling that many people irrationally recoil when they hear the term and seek to obscure the situation by “moving the goalpost” and essentially ask for direct evidence of a literal cabal making overtly racist decisions to disenfranchise a minority group which ignores the “systemic” component of the term. Lastly, based on what you said, why do you think racism exists?
@@jenlet3956 Answering why racism exists is a tough one and I think you could breakdown racism into several forms. Obvious being ignorant due to lack of interaction with a race or ethnicity and willingful hateful with a doctrine are different forms of racism but to the people experiencing them they might feel the same.
I think ignorance and fear are the two largest driving factors, while the human propensity for dogmatic thinking and tribalism are what can amplify these to larger forms of hatred. Education and integration are ideally the solution, but cultural proclivities can often serve as a wedge for two races or ethnicities from intergrating with one another. People will forever notice physical differences. People will forever abide by dogmatic thought about social interaction. And people will always adhere to the group by which they most identify. This is a sad reality, but I think maximizing positive interactions, dispelling stereotypes, and making society both functionally and systematically fair in terms of access to resources and education are the best shots we have.
Your analysis is flawed. It was actually the passage of the federal reserve act and Nixon's total removal of the gold standard in 1971 that finalized the what you are experiencing right now. But I don't have time to explain it here.
@@ameya5054 It allowed the government to spend freely and irresponsibly thereby allowing them to "purchase" votes with "gifts" from the treasury. If you want to learn more about this, it is imperative that you study economics (Austrian preferably) but study both (Keynesian-- preferred by politicians because of no spending limits) and come to your own conclusion. You can also study the writings of the esteemed author and educator Thomas Sowell. Did you really ask me if "systemic racism" exists? I counter with, "Do unicorns exist?" Well in my world, unicorns are real. My daughter argues against my position and I simply state, "Who makes the pie?" That is all!

I love how they barely explain how to fix anything then tell us we need to make it better
That is because it is obscenely hard.
They don't tell us how to fix it because they have no clue themselves on how to do it.
ikr
@@YourLocalMairaaboo only 1 way
Only way to fix it is to cut some funding off of programs that are being overfunded or for people that donate to charity to actually make sure their money is going into the communities. All this money that they say is going into the communities just goes into the rich pockets. These neighborhoods would not look how they do if what they say they do was true lol
Because you can’t fix a nonissue. This video exists to sell you on the concept and that’s it. Makes you easier to manipulate for some crappy politician. All they have to say is “Racism is bad” and they’ll get millions of votes for it, despite being just another dime a dozen crappy politician
Thank you so much for this video. This is one of my favorite videos in my college class because it helps me understand much more than someone lecturing. I need visuals! Thank You!!!
But I'm a POOR WHITE
I went to a school like Jamal's which is like 99% of all American public schools..
@ThatOneAsianBroChick well Jamal shouldnt do anything to get the cops called on him
ThatOneAsianBroChick You do realize most police who get in fights with blacks, are also black
@ThatOneAsianBroChick that is a myth that has become propaganda. Search up Daniel shavers and Tony Timpa both brutally murdered by police and where both WHITE. Also if you're not acting scatty and obeying the law and cooperating with police then you should have ZERO problems and that's a fact!
@@intrepidrants7643 oh, so police brutality affects everyone? So why fight people protesting against police brutality? Makes no sense to me. BLM isn't saying only black people get killed by the cops, they're more likely to be shot by the cops than white people
@@MeganAllen1738 thats untrue too. Last year in lost angeles there are 4 unarmed white people that got shot by cops in the same year only 1 black man got shot by police unarmed. Statics would say white people is more likely to get shot by police than a black person.
Unfortunately Democratic Policy has decided that Jimal's family wont get school vouchers to go the the school of their choice. You could also allow charter schools or break the teachers union.
Vouchers and charters don't do anything to help demographic/systemic issues. At best they might allow a few individuals to do better. If a neighbourhood is extremely poor, and doesn't have good schools, the goal should be to 'fix' the neighbourhood and the schools.
@Vlad Xavier And conservatives are very often very heavily opposed to policies meant to address the kinds of things that very disproportionately cause very poor areas to be susceptible to this problem. Ready and cheap access to abortions, good sex education and cheap access to contraceptives, cheap and competent social services like daycares, etc. Oh, and let's not forget the countless numbers of fathers who are stuck in jail because of stupid policies largely endorsed by conservatives like smoking weed. Again, these are systemic problems. The only way to fix a systemic problem is with systemic solutions. And conservatives are usually staunchly opposed to this.
Fanghur Rahl “Fathers stuck in jail for stupid policies like smoking weed” That’s straight out of Joe Biden’s 1994 crime bill so.......
Nicholas Kraft And?
@Vlad Xavier "You fix the neighborhood by allowing families..."
People getting married is not going to solve the funding issues of education due to property taxes, the issues of redlining or implicit biases at all. Stop peddling this blatantly idiotic point.
A lot of people in the comments are very decisive about if this is racism or classism but to be honest it’s all the same if your community is already at the bottom of the social totem pole but still racism or classism has no place in government mandated institutions, all public schools need to be state funded and equal all across the board but by having them primarily funded by real estate tax literally by definition makes each and every school unequal from the next, and I know a lot of middle class parents will see this and naturally disagree because they feel they’ve worked hard to be able to put their kids in communities with good schools so they can get ahead and good if you truly feel that strongly about it then put your kids into private schools but when it comes to public schools there is no tangible explanation or excuse for why this inequality should be justified and allowed to continue, it’s not the damn kids fault that their parents couldn’t put them into better neighborhoods with better schools so why are we taking it out on the kids!? Equal opportunity in America is a lie and always will be alive as long as this continues
You touch on a good point for certain, it is set based off the immediate community per school. But always a but right, most millionaires are not super educated which tells me there is another missing factor to the equation. I believe it is mindset as you can look and see different mentalities across the different classes. I would like to find a handful of the poorest communities and start pumping a stream of positivity into them, and see what it does. Then build on it. Once they are thinking in more positive terms start helping to create positive opportunities etc....
The other option is just more of the same.
If you think there is any merit in trying this let me know. If it sounds stupid let me know.
You are absolutely right, though the main objective is to annihilate the public school system. And the ultra-right (christo-fascists) are winning this abject battle.
I'm a teacher and I'm afraid...
Equal opportunity is not a lie but it's much harder to take action and improve your lot by taking online courses, starting an online business, etc f you believe that it's a lie, right? You quit before you even try. Check out Roland Barthes experiment in Houston where he took a teaching model from a successful inner city school in Harlem and applied it to a school in Houston, the differentiating factor from most other schools focused on setting the bar higher for black students than lower - that paradigm shift in any culture will have material positive impact across the group.

Leftists evade Sowell,Williams and other black intellectuals if they advocate individualism.
This UA-cam algorithm has a funny sense of humor
They haven't defined their terms and particulars precisely for me to understand. They are talking about Class structure and lack of opportunity and all these other things.
Do you not understand how class structure and lack of opportunities are related to race? Think of it maybe, as like the caste system. So in America, if you’re not white, you’re just looked at differently and are treated with bias.
@@HanHanMC I don't have any data on your first claim. However I can give you an example of that leads to my one objection. That of affirmative action is a policy that is meant to be good but bad practice. You see you are saying that admission into an elite or top 50 university should be based on merit ability and other factors and not race. However the practice does the exact contrary it allows certain groups or individuals to get into college with a lower SAT score and GPA. This is supposed to be a boost or an advantage that is based on something that other groups have no control over.
Your Steelin my Sunshine I’m very confident that colleges do not do affirmative action in that way. You still have to have the grades, you still have to be intelligent enough. Why would they let someone in to college who does not qualify for it? Have you even been to college dude
@@HanHanMC Well they have a sort index using advanced statistical methods such norming and normal distribution techniques. However it may be said higher achieving or people at the higher end of the bell curve of cognitive ability are being singled out in the same way just as this video has demonstrated. They artificially try to narrow a gap that is the wrong approach. It may do more harm than good.
Why aren't the percentages on the bar graph at 3:05 evenly spaced out? Also first names say more about culture then they do about race.
I wonder which culture the name Tyrone is associated with in America? We can't have a real discussion if you people continue to be intellectually dishonest.
@@MeganAllen1738 You confuse "black sounding" and "white sounding" names with "American" and "Non-American" sounding names. You made it about race, when it's not. And notice how I said "you" and not "you people", because I don't think like a racist, as you do.
@@historynut3460 Tyrone doesn't sound like an American name to you? If it's a popular name in America then it is American. How is it not about race when Tyrone gets refused a job when he's just as or more qualified than Tom? You really think Mia (a german name) gets the same treatment as Tamika or Lakeisha?
@@historynut3460 Notice how you say I make everything about race when it's not and then in the next sentence you call me racist for saying "you people" lol. What race would I even be racist towards by saying "you people?"
@@MeganAllen1738 Why should it? I wouldn't look at Tamika or Lakeisha over Mia. If I'm an employer how do I even know those two can speak English? What a potential pain in the ass

Are you trolling? It's called emphasis and a lot of sentences are ended that way. It's how speech works. Look it up.
It also happens mid sentence if you're wondering.
Are you fucking kidding me, what an actual snowflake. Conservatives are so utterly, pathetically easy to trigger. Knee jerk reactionaries that would rather listen to their feelings than live in reality.
Tone and body language often say more about what a person thinks than the words themselves. Here, it's obvious that the narrator has a negative view of white people, and a positive view of African American's by the tone he uses. If you are skeptical, listen closely. I'm not trying to troll or trigger you by saying that, I'm just pointing out an obvious fact.
@X B let's suspend our disbelief for second and pretend that you are correct in that this single ennounciation of a word does mean what you say it means.
So? Do you think the narrator wrote the video? The narrator was paid to read words
