Modern day systemic racism, does it exist?

[Astrid]

Are you suggesting that black people do not go to qualified school?
are you saying that black people can't have good grades?

Are you reading into my words
what you choose to look for?

 

[Ana the Ist]

It isn't racism that causes the disparity between
white and asian academic achievement in the usa.

Nor would I claim such a thing.

 

[Astrid]

White men have always been on top and are still on top. As the statistics show, you are better off being born a white male.

Nor would I claim such a thing.

Of course. Point being, it's other
factors!
But with black v white it appears some
think it's racism and no other factors
could be the cause.

That's certainly the justification used for discrimination.

I just quoted it

You didn't quite the pertinent part. You keep leaving that out. The part I quoted is the pertinent part because it addresses precisely what I have saying. The part you quoted does not address all things equal. It dealt with generalizations and not specifics.

You just left out the part that does. I wonder why.

 

[rjs330]

yeah no racism here....

Are you denying that all that is true?

 

[Ken-1122]

Seriously? The part bolded and highlighted in red, duh.

Where do you get 200% from?


You made your point badly with wrong numbers then.

*Black politicians represent over 25% of the US population. Do you agree with that? Because that is the claim the CBC is making.
*Black people represent approx 13% of the US population. Over 25% is 200% of 13%

 

[Astrid]

That's certainly the justification used for discrimination.

I don't see how I could be better off
as white or a man

Are you denying that all that is true?

In America facts are racist. Like correct
answers in math.

 

[Ana the Ist]

I don't see how I could be better off
as white or a man

Unfortunately, the fact that some people are Asian and have better outcomes than white people in some areas has become an inconvenience to the narrative of systemic racism.

So Asians are increasingly just lumped in with whites.

In America facts are racist. Like correct
answers in math.

Indeed.

"likely attributable to race."

I rest my case

 

[rturner76]

But that doesn't mean with determination and fortitude that you can't overcome those obstacles

Never said they couldn't only that it is an obstacle

 

[rturner76]

That's certainly the justification used for discrimination.

The white man is not under the yoke of discrimination

Poll shows hiring managers discriminating against white men - Washington Examiner

It must be all that white privilege going around the country, but a recent survey showed that 1 in 6 hiring managers was asked not to hire white males. That's the discriminatory behavior implemented in companies throughout the country, according to data from ResumeBuilder. It's obviously...

www.washingtonexaminer.com

1 in 6 told not to hire or deprioritize white men.

Notice how this is real racism. I don't have to assume it's subconsciously happening....it's being said out loud.

Where is the evidence you keep talking about? A disparity or something?

I already showed you that. Maybe these companies had racist hiring practices and needed to balance out the scales a little bit. Idon't get that the white man is being oppressed. They're just losing their privilege. Plus it was some crappy poll, not data.

I rest my case

Do you now.

Well at least we agree those are obstacles to be overcome.

That's a debate tactic. Sometimes intended. Sometimes not.

Hallelujah

I don't know why you are so giddy. I've never said there were no obstacles. Did you think I believed that?
