Except this isn’t how equity plays out in real life. The person on the left would be standing in a hole so he couldn’t see just like the others. When we can’t figure out how to bring others up, we hold people back to close the gap, particularly in public education. [/quote]

Just stop. You keep trying to push this false narrative. No, the person on the left does not and is not really in a hole. This is just your paranoid narrative of “Those people are taking something from me so they can get a decent life.”

Yeah, no. [/quote]

When a wealthy black person with strong family ties and community support is given a specific material advantage over a poor white person from a broken home and without any community support then how else would you describe it? Why is skin color more worthy of “equity” than economic class, education level or family circumstances?[/quote]

Does the poor white person get frightened that they might be murdered when they’re pulled over on the side of the road by the police? Yeah, I didn’t think so. That wealthy black person does. Doesn’t matter how much money or community support they have. They’re still followed in the store, still live in fear for being brutalized by the police, and still looked at as being lesser than by many. [/quote]

This is all political theater because the cops run the plate first and will know the black one is not a criminal but the one white might ht be because poverty has rap sheets[/quote]

Sure. Whatever you need to tell yourself. The fear that every Black person in this country has when pulled over is just all in their heads. If they just keep their hands on the steering wheel and follow the police officer’s directions, nothing bad will happen. Right?

Exactly, follow instructions and everything will be ok. We are a minority as well and teach our kids this. [/quote]

Lol no[/quote]
