Reply To: Empirical data: Does systemic racism exist?

@ubiquitin

I don’t think we’re in disagreement here. I agree that there are vicious cycles of poverty in the black community that originated from oppression. However, anyone that read JD Vance’s book on Appalachia will realize that people in the “White Trash” community are in the same exact spiraling situation. Most of these systemic racism studies just prove that there is a vicious cycle of poverty, not that anyone is explicitly or even implicitly discriminating against someone because of the color if their skin.
