Systemic Racism Explained

Systemic racism affects every area of life in the US. From incarceration rates to predatory loans, and trying to solve these problems requires changes in major parts of our system. Here's a closer look at what systemic racism is, and how we can solve it.

Video teaching people about racism: "This is Jamal"

[angelicalopez]

Hi. I am looking for a video related to the great migration and systemic racism called: There goes the neighborhood. Anyone know how to access the video or where to find it?

[brycechapman]

“His teachers are very well paid”
Yeah that’s a lie for any school.

[mundane]

They really named the black kid "Jamal".

Conclusion: stop funding schools using property taxes.

How can I get in touch with the person(s) who drew the graphics for this? I’m looking to hire.

Man what a shame that you’re removing the comments pointing out the fallacies in your argument. It’s almost like the facts don’t fit your narrative🧐

[DevinAmir]

Please please don’t remove the comments that disagree with this. I was trying to respond to one, now it’s gone. We need discussion. If people could remove, why couldn’t they respond instead?

How can this theory explains the undeniable economic success of people of asian descent ?

[thenanc]

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.

I didn't realize all white people grew up in rich neighborhoods.

I missed that memo

[jamesreck]

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.

bro really said kevin and jamal as an example.

They really named the black kid "Jamal"






Edit: some kid named "can't think of a name" copied my comment and his has a few more likes, look at the goddamn date people. 8 months ago vs. 7 months ago???

[OlesSavluk]

Could someone explain why it called racism instead of poverty? Are not the same applicable to any poor district regardless of race?

[tijeraslack]

So what should be done? I went to private school and finished graduate school about 3 years ago? I get hell when applying for jobs due to being overqualified.
