[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The question was about economic disparity between races in the ward. Goulet went first and immediately equated persona of color in Ward 3 with voucher recipients. The racial disparity in the ward is because voucher recipients don’t have enough support services from the city. The other candidates immediately castigated him for assuming all persons of color in the ward are voucher recipients. [/quote] I’m sure, disproportionately, they are. People of color, particularly African Americans, are at the bottom of every demographic comparison across every and all systems we measure. Health, education, housing, income, wealth, employment, and crime. That’s what systemic racism is. So was he saying he’s trying to improve access for people of color? Or was it actually nefarious?
