[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Equality means everyone has the same opportunity but outcomes are different.

Equity means outcomes are the same.  It will never be, and it sets everyone up for failure . [/quote]

You are wrong.  It is not about the outcome, it is about the opportunity.  Equity means you give people the same opportunity even if it means giving people different things. It is up to them to turn that into an outcome.[/quote]

Can’t you be bothered to research your opinion before parading it as fact? You are flat out weong and that is why people are frustrated. It’s not because they are white supremacist it’s because the concept is flawed.

“Equality means each individual or group of people is given the same resources or opportunities. Equity recognizes that each person has different circumstances and allocates the exact resources and opportunities needed to reach an equal outcome.”

That is clear and written in plain english. Equity means identical outcomes not a level playing field.
