Don't know that would require more analysis. What it would say is regardless of your race, if you're rich you have a better shot at doing what you want to do. The poor would have to do more to get a leg up but I believe it can be done if one applies themselve.
And if you are over 7 feet tall, you have a better chance of playing in the NBA. But none of that is really relevant to the issue of social racial injustice. The more likely to be poor is just one of the social injustices that blacks suffer.
If you don’t recognize white privilege at this point in your life, you have your head in the sand.
50 years of liberal policies and modern day plantations explain it. They continue to vote for more poverty And crime
Got it. If you disagree with someone else’s opinion it’s stupid.
Or, by you're thinking, if you're black you have a better chance of playing in the NBA?
I know exactly what you're talking about by 'white privilege' but again it didn't get me where I am today. What did was my strong-willed mother. We had little money. My dad would work his shift as a plant operator and then go and carpenter for 2 or 3 hours. My mother had one ultimate rule, you will get a college degree (she didn't care in what [except not journalism] but you would get a college degree). My parents sacrificed a lot so me and my siblings would have a chance at a better life. If you want to say I didn't get subjected to certain things that blacks did that's fine.
They hooked their wagons to those goddamn Dem donkeys and lost everything they had been building, mostly on their own. Yes, funny thing about segregation in the 1950's into the '60's, it forced blacks to build communities and small businesses and have nuclear families, etc...all those goofy things you libs poo-pooh! And then along came LBJ et al and those black communities/small businesses suffered a double whammy. One the Fed guvmint started substituting itself into black families with social programs that encouraged fathers to "disappear" so the mothers, with kids, could draw the maximum. And secondly, the end of segregation allowed blacks to patronize white-owned businesses, like the big box stores and white-owned fast food franchises, and given the advantage of the economy of scale the small mom & pop black businesses found it increasingly more difficult to compete.
Before I go further....NO! I am not suggesting segregation was good or we should go back to it. But the way the transition was so badly mishandled the negatives I mentioned happened, and as the hole got deeper, the blacks were virtually forced to keep going back to the trough controlled by the Fed guvmint i.e. the Dems.
Another before I go further...there are photos of 1950's Natchitoches at the Genealogy Library...wonderful pics. Of...oh! west Natchitoches which today is not much to brag about but back then had neat houses, clean yards, kids riding bikes, families seen together...father-mother-children...and businesses, lots of businesses! Including a taxi service. Looking at those photos one would ask, what happened? Well, the Dems happened!
Finally, any stupid claim of blacks can't make it unless white libs hold 'em by the hand is insulting, wrong! insulting (yes, I said insulting twice). Otherwise...every black who has made it on their own merits...education, successful career, family, wealth, etc...must be a mere set-up, right? We are told blacks have no chance...white privilege....systemic racism...white cops loose on the streets hunting down young black men...OMG! OR! it's all a matter of making the right choice, and for ALL those millions of blacks who have built something for themselves, on their own merits, that choice was to REJECT liberalism. It's true, while many still vote Dems, they themselves live their lives in complete opposition to what Dems preach.
Is Al Sharpton a rich man or poor man?
Don't know if he is rich or poor, but he is a liar, con artist and extortioner. When he is referred to as "reverend" I
believe the Good Lord shutters.
One of the best written articles on this topic IMO..

Goosey will say a 100-lb white woman disagrees with this article...
The author nailed a lot of the issues...the real truths.
Yet, the author offers no counter-explanation for what is self-evident. Just criticized those for accepting the self-evident and the dismissal of other points of view, which also have failed to offer a credible explanation for why blacks are more likely to be in prison.
It's there. You just choose to ignore it.
"The ever-present soft bigotry of low expectations and the permanent claim that the solutions to the plight of my people rest exclusively on the goodwill of whites rather than on our own hard work is psychologically devastating. No other group in America is systematically demoralized in this way by its alleged allies. A whole generation of black children are being taught that only by begging and weeping and screaming will they get handouts from guilt-ridden whites. No message will more surely devastate their futures, especially if whites run out of guilt, or indeed if America runs out of whites. If this had been done to Japanese Americans, or Jewish Americans, or Chinese Americans, then Chinatown and Japantown would surely be no different to the roughest parts of Baltimore and East St. Louis today. "
In other words, it's people like YOU, the true white supremacists of today. Your types have effectively created an environment where you MUST identify as your race first (and sometimes to the exclusion of all other identities) if you happen to be black. You MUST huddle together in "black communities" where all must be lifted at the same time or none can be lifted at all (in a world where individualism and self achievement has taken us to the moon and invented everything we enjoy today). You have the dem party and black leaders (Michelle Obama is the latest) telling them they will never overcome the odds they face by being black. If you dare to have a thought of your own, you are an "uncle Tom" or "Coon", and you are quickly brought back into line. Is it any wonder there is despair?
I also saw you are achieving another of your goals by black children being aborted at a greater number than whites or other races (I think I read that almost half of black pregnancies end in abortion, but only 16 percent for whites). I guess those black lives don't matter? I think this is genocide, but you liberal types seem to think this is what is needed. Mengele would be proud of the American left.

Okay, let’s leave aside the obvious fact that this statement is not true, and assume arguendo that it is.A whole generation of black children are being taught that only by begging and weeping and screaming will they get handouts from guilt-ridden whites.
What then explains the previous generations that were also over-imprisoned and poor relative to their percentage of the population?
Are we talking before the end of forced segregation? If so, the answer is forced segregation and being treated as a race instead of as human beings.
Since then, the answer is voluntary segregation and racial identity carefully orchestrated by the American left. Their goal with all the unrest is to cement the herding of a voting block by race for the cost of a few pairs of beads (hmmmm, sounds familiar).
