Ok, let's look at the list

1: Wealth
Will soft-disagree because their premise is flawed. The reason white families have so much money is due to inheritance... some families have money that goes back hundreds of years. If you look at non-dynastic wealth it's more even. I mean, Jeff Bezos is white - and he's practically HALF the chart

2: Employment

Will agree. However, their reasoning is kinda silly - resume performance? airbnb reviews? What if the people they are talking about actually legit suck and it's all a coincidence?

Either way, I hate when things go "and one study showed", that's like - you can't really peer review a "one study", there should have been hundreds of studies by now

3: Education

I think this directly stems from the previous 2, you need money to educate which leads to money...

But...

> consider that while black children constitute 18% of preschoolers nationwide, they make up nearly 50% of suspensions.

Umm, who's suspending preschoolers? And why is preschool being used as a metric for post-secondary success?

EDIT: Another problem is that American's fund schools via property taxes - meaning poor areas have worse schools, this is a gross mishandling of funds and y'all should change it so that all schools are divied up equally from the total property tax pool.

4: Criminal Justice

This I will hard agree with; and it's really all Ronald Reagans fault - but this page makes it sound like Black people are more likely to be criminals, which isn't good.

5: Housing

Same as money... it's all money

6: Surveillance

Can't really comment 'cuz it's another "One Study" quote, and I live in a free nation. Also much like the prison one, this one AT FACE VALUE makes it look like black dudes are more likely to be criminals in the first place which we both know isn't true

7: Healthcare

You're america, and once again... money
