Systemic racism explained
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 авг 2020
- You’ve likely heard the term “systemic racism,” but do you know what it means? KGW talked to the experts to break it down and to give us the tools to address it.
It's tough to learn about this stuff because no one gives clear examples or specifics. They just say "it exists"
Because YOU DONT LIVE IT..
you understand more when you're a minority
@The Truth Racism Doesnt exhist Help me out here? Im all ears Trust me..I aint gonna argue back .
@The Truth the worst kinds of people are the ones who say racism doesn't exist.
@The Truth You are confused! Most white racism abuses today are intentionally highly COVERT and carefully cloaked! Because of potential legal liability, most white racism abuses are scrupulously hidden from view! That's how the game is played today! Because if the secretive, hidden nature of most modern race discrimination abuses, direct evidence us rarely available. The circumstantial evidence of statistics is often the only proof available!
"prioritize a white point of view"
What is a "white point of view"?
It is pretty odd since in the internet i have never seen a person invalidating the argument of a person based on colors... But i have been seen a lot sof case of a white point of view being invalidate by his skin color... The argument is: you are privileged therefore your opinion is invalid...
It is pretty odd, because in reality it's the oposite
It's similar to when people tell you to act black. It's ignorance incarnate.
The white point of view would be the view of those who don't live under the same socioeconomic conditions of poor red lined communities.
@@canadagoose8543 Then the statement should be that people living in the socioeconomic conditions of poor redlined communities are underrepresented.
The socioeconomic conditions under which white people (like people of most ethnicity) live pretty much ranges across every strata of the population, and framing the statement in racial terms is a bigoted generalization.
@@maya-amf3325 You have it completely backwards. The socioeconomic conditions in red lined communities stem from a historical gate keeping of wealth accumulation within black communities as perpetuated by the white supremacist power structures implemented throughout the first 216 years of American history, these power structures are now gone, and have been gone for 29 years, therefore it does not range across every strata of the population, it's specific to the black race... who have only been allowed to accumulate wealth for 29 out of 245 years of the country's history.
It's positive news that the first 88% of the country's history continues no longer, but the socioeconomic feedback loop created by this history continues, and any narrative that perpetuates the socioeconomic feedback loop is... the white narrative.
It is terrifiyingly sad to read these comments

Its a lot of people with stupid rebuttals to Systematic racism in the vain of Ben Shapiro(theyre like playing word games with institutional racism),
-people who think that bringing up Americas racist past is the problem
-people asking for evidence when watching a video that is giving said evidence
-and people really lacking empathy to not see that an argument can be made in efforts of protecting Others and not totally self-indulgent(so idiots with a capital " I").
-theres even a few troll accounts , u can see that they made those accounts like recently
a funny one is that guy whose like " i sold a house to an African-American woman , how can i do that if racism?!" ( that guy is a special case , he thinks capitalism has snuffed out racism when it inspired it to begin with)
i encourage anyone listening to any outlet anywhere on the political spectrum to fact check , and not parrot some idiot who is gonna tell u what u want to hear so they can get into your wallets. if u do , then u dont have a lot to get mad about with this video.- straight facts-
@@ji_ji_ great reply, thanks for the time you are taking to communicate the misunderstanding (intentional or not). We need more people like you in many of these comment sections.
Black person here...came to this video to see if I can be convinced this exist.
Still not convinced.
Study the history of the demokkkrat party, public education, planned parenthood, and the prison system. Look at politicans like Joe Biden and Chuck Schummer. I'm not always sure what people mean by systemic racism, but certainly the Demokkkrats created a racist system.
@@JohnDouqh democrats possibly created it and republicans deny its existence. they are both culprits
@@fabiofernandes9122 excuse me? Republicans fought a civil war about it, fight for school choice and liberty for all. They also fight planned parenthood which is executing Margret Sanger's genocide against black America.
What they deny is the allegations that Republicans are bigots. Which is just a lie perpetrated by the Demokkkrats propaganda machine in order to white wash their history of slavery and racial oppression.
@@JohnDouqh I'm Republican, and you forgot that today, the parties switched tho...
@@thanos1707 the parties never switched. The racist Demokkkrats followed the black man and set up ghettos in all major cities. Every ghetto is run by Demokkkrats. Republican values have essentially stayed the same, freedom of the individual. Demokkkrat values have essentially stayed the same, slavery of the individual. Why do you think so many millennial Democrats are communists? Communism is essentially 20th century slavery.
When are they going to define systemic racism?
@@Torric25 Yes exactly, I’m glad someone finally said it.
@@Torric25 Go ahead and explain the incarceration rates. Explain the racial wealth gap. Explain the war on drugs. Explain redlining. Explain the southern strategy. Explain why black sounding names are less likely to be hired than white sound names.

@@lajan1981ify your color doesn’t matter to me as a I am a person of color too…
I don't deny systemic or institutional racism I just want to know what specific policies/laws support racism so that I know what specific policies/laws to fight against. I try searching it but all I get is explanations about what institutional/systemic racism is but no specific policy. How do I fight against something where I can't find a target or is it more complicated than that?
Jim Crow would be an example of true systemic racism. However modern instances of it are none.
The issue with Jim Crow is that people think it ended right sway and that’s false. Nothing in history has ever worked that way. Even with slavery- slavery officially ended on December 6, 1865 but that doesn’t mean everyone just let their slaves go on December 7, 1865. These things take time. In some places they didn’t enforce the law right away and that was true with Jim Crow. It isn’t like you can get all these people who don’t approve of blacks to just change their mind and start hiring them or letting them into your neighborhoods…no. It didn’t work like that. It was still decades after before attitudes started to change. This is how I see things: whatever laws/policies you see changed in your lifetime…you aren’t going to see the impact. It’s your children or grandchildren that get to experience the impact. That’s how it works.
@@lisacox3750 That ain't systemic racism though. That becomes individual racism. Nobody should be denying that individual racism doesn't exist, it will always exist. However putting the blame on systemic racism just causes a roadblock, because now people are looking for answers in the wrong place.
Nobody ever gives specifics because they don't have any to give. This stuff is truly Kafka's surreal psychological horror 'The Trial' brought into reality. I recommend Thomas Sowell if you're looking to understand the root causes of economic disparities and such. he actually knows what he's talking about and has the receipts to back it up. He wrote a fantastic book called 'Discrimination and Disparities'. I believe you can find excerpts from that and his other books and interviews where he talks about these subjects here on RUclips.
John McWhorter is also worth listening to on these subjects.
@@jdubo1998 If you need instances of systematic racism then you first have to start with schools. In schools, black children are more likely to be put into Special Need classes. Then you can look at the criminal justice system. Black and whites reported smoking marijuana at the same rate but black people are the 6 to 7 more likely to end up in jail or prison for it.
You can look at employment. A resume study was conducted and the only difference was the name. One sounded black one sounded white and the one with the white name got way more callbacks. Then you can look at wealth inequality. In which
the average white person has 10 times more wealth then the average black person and it would take 232 years for the average black person to have the wealth that the average white person has today. You can also find health care studies where a black person can go in for the same illness as a white person but get treated much different.
Then you will see a system. The education system is unequal or unfair (also because schools are funded by property taxes, making that also unequal), the criminal justice system is unequal and unfair, the economic system is unequal, and the health care system is unequal. Then you will see the systematic racism that exists!
Please define the difference between the effects of systemic racism and poverty, in a convincing evidenced way.
read about redlining an how it helped white families build wealth. look at how many home owners there are, and when were homes purchased a lot. how many homes compared to these times are purchased now? and by which ethnic group? we've been in a housing bubble for so many years now

@@reybeltran1209 okay. research the reasoning behind why that is. I just don't understand the ignorance when the internet exists.
I hear this term thrown around ALL the time but no one can ever actually tell me what it means lmao
@Craig Miller that isn't true, affirmative action isn't actually affective. If you look at the states where white men have abolished it the amount of white people attending colleges and stuff of that sort was cut in half. So affirmative action had the right idea it just doesn't work at all. So this is simply not true
It means having laws or things put on place that make it hard for most of people of color to do. For example, most blacks and people of color have 2 forms of identification and one is paper. In some states they have had elections where they required 2 forms of Identification and not allowing paper id. This lead to less than half of blacks and other people of color to vote. This was put in place to make the voting predominantly white. This applies to so many things especially jobs, college, school, sports, jail/justice, and etc. It's policy's that prevent a group to have access or being able to do that thing the policy is put in place for. This has been around for all of history and still are around now.
You can legit just watch the video... that is explaining it lol
People don't understand it. I kind of understand because I was complacent for most of my life. Open your minds, open your hearts. You might just learn something. There is a problem whether you want to see it or not. Racism has not gone anywhere. I had a false sense until these last few years. I thought that racism was fringe. But no a lot if ignorant people still hating. It's in our systems. Our government systems. Prison incarceration, Employment, housing and a heck of a lot more. Please have an open mind and an open heart.
It's like the cultural thing that police can do no wrong and shouldn't be held accountable. That is a cultural belief in this country. I was blinded by it, I had that belief. Not anymore. I watched Derrick Chauvins murder trial. I started out pretty impartial but the evidence swayed me (I couldn't get past the video though)(I watched these beings crush the life out of this one being) it's literally that simple. I now have thrown out that cultural B.S. If we as humans can make mistakes then they as humans can as well. I say again please have an open heart and an open mind♡
@@meowmeowmeoww69 omg im Hispanic and this isn't true it is not hard too get 2 forms of id i don't see how that is racist if you can't get 2 forms of id your simply un responsible you have too blame your self for that one.
I lived through 80’s and 90’s in America as an Asian, and I’ve faced an ungodly amount of blatant racist attacks from all different types of people, so I had a quite a long time to think about this subject. When most people think about systemic racism, they are actually thinking about institutional racism. It’s the word systemic that throws people off. It’s probably more accurate to use the term racist culture or cultural racism, because it’s about different elements of racism that have infiltrated ones culture. A negative or positive stereotypes in a given culture that subconsciously influences people is an example. The way I see it, there are two main types: interpersonal/individual and institutional/systemic racism. Obviously interpersonal racism stems from individuals making decisions based on stereotypes and racist cultures around them. Institutional racism are racist behaviors and policies that are created by an organization, department, politicians, etc... (basically the ones that are in charge of different “systems “). Racist culture and individual racism definitely exist and these are the types most people face. Institutional or “systemic “ racism is not prevalent because there are laws specifically against them. Also, people are hyper aware of institutional racism, so it would be difficult to hide it from the public. An example of an institutional racism is race-based college admission policies.
Props for explaining something apparently nobody can understand or explain.
So like accepting black people eventhough, they have lesser grade average. Thus denying education to someone who actually put in the work to get that far...
@@ZLE_ There are those yes
I love how people explain the way "they see it". There are entire academic disciplines dedicated to what's known as "critical theory". So, for instance, the idea of "intitutional racism" or "systemic racism" comes from the discipline known as "critical race theory".
These disciplines are not rooted in any kind of scientific methodology and do not establish facts as we would normally view facts. It establishes a narrrative. At it's core, "critical theory" is a literary critique of traditional narratives that supposedly seek to masquerade social norms & legal policies that, according to critical theory, are only in place to opress marginalized groups. How do we know if a norm or policy is "systemically racist" ? If it produces uneven outcomes. Because, after all, people are entirely determined bu their material reality, if there was no racism, people would sort themselves evenly in all institutions.
Critical theory deconstructs all narratives except one. The narrative that our reality is entirely defined by the groups that we are a part of. Through this interpretive lense, the entire sum of our social, if not material, reality is defined by the groups we are a part of and the historical relation these groups had to one another. This is a dangerous lense because it puts the group that a person is a part of above who that person is as an individual and then seeks to attribute collective guilt to individuals based on those groups. They don't care about your innocence as an individual, they only care about if you are a member of a group that has historically opressed another.
This is a fancy form of tribalism that is not rooted in any kind of fact. Because after all, even the scientific method was created by white western men to support their domination over the marginalized minority. The only that is "true" when viewing the world this way is that reality is defined by the historical dialectic between different groups of people seeking to obtain power over one another.
It's worse because it hijacks people's best intentions by redefining words like "diversity", "inclusion" & "equity" and masquerading behind supposed good intentions when in reality they seek only to tear down what they view as a fundamentally oppressive society.
Anyone that tries to argue this by projecting their own interpretations on to these concepts is wrong and the "intellectuals" behind the movement are counting on people to not study these things deeply enough to understand and allowing those same people to push the movement by hijacking their compassionate intentions. There is no nuance or interpretation to this. The movement is a postmodern deconstruction of traditional narratives and the establishment of a dialectical material narrative. It's not rooted in fact and should be denounced for the triablism it seeks to reinstate.
A ressource for those seeking to learn more about this ridiculous philosophy:

Don't let these "intellectuals" use your compassionate impulses for their own gain. Don't pretend to understand something if you don't understand it.
@@samd5216 I appreciate your long-winded explanation on this matter. I don’t have a degree in sociology nor am I pretending to. My post is my personal opinion based on own life experience. My main point is that I disagree with how the video define systemic racism. In my opinion a perfect example of systemic racism is affirmative action for example. That’s all I really wanted to get across. I’ll leave it up to you to provide the collegiate explanation 👍.
I like how they mostly look at the black community, what about every other race in America, first Americans would have a case of systemic racism and have been on reservations for how long? How are Asians treated in America? Black people are not oppressed or held back it’s a myth that these people push to still have a job
HOW TO BEAT R-CISM?
I thought about it and if you have Parents/Grandparents who watch Fox-News or Children who watch Ben-Shapiro, and they
start to wonder 'Ok, if Systemic-Racism isnt real, then why are Blacks falling behind? Could it be they are just inherently worse??', then show them the
History-Videos and Racism-Videos of 'Some More News' and 'Knowing Better' as well as the 1 Cuba-Video of 'Second Thought'. The Jim-Crow-Video
of SMN literally adresses Racism-ITSELF and how people can break free from it.
It breaks Tunnelvision and clears-up Myths.

Maybe I am missing something here. This video talked about systemic racism but provided no data. Is there evidence of systemic racism today? Disparities in incarceration does not automatically equate to systemic racism.

What they are describing are thoughts, and beliefs. Very broadly, re-defining "thought crime", as racism. "People are 'thinking wrong', and we must change that. Through education. Especially the education of children"...is what this boils down to. This is extremely dangerous stuff. It goes well-beyond ideas having to do with race, or racial tension. This is 'Orwellian'. They truly believe they are the righteous-arbiters of truth, and should pursue policy to control 'wrong think'. Like I said, this is dangerous, and it isn't new.
Read the 1619 Project for a comprehensive understanding.
If racism is so 'systemic', then perhaps point out some actual racist policies to help the rest of us understand your point. This video didn't explain anything.
Yep, no one will ever give any examples. Because they can't. Keeping it vague is the only way for them to keep their victimhood.
CAUSE > EFFECT
As usual, not one real life example was provided in this video of "systemic racism". If this issue has been system wide for decades, there should be millions of specific cases documented (proven cases, not assumptions or hearsay). The proven case and the name of the institution where it happened? What, when, where, why, how? One example please. I'm not being combative, I asking because I've never heard of one proven case.
well it seems that by definition, systemic racism is intractable.
The beauty of this is that all it takes is some dubious statistical analysis, you show there's a disparity in wealth or achievement in specific categories (typically in standards of living) enjoyed by people of different races, then claim that this disparity has to be the result of some diffuse racism in society.
This keeps those who would otherwise be fighting together against economic inequalities at each other's throat. Our economic system is inherently unstable, leading inevitably to a wealth concentration: with money you make more money. That means that a group that was actually discriminated against by the system in the past is likely to remain poor, forever making it seem like there remain overwhelming divides along racial lines to this day, when really the most significant factor keeping people down is the fact that they're already down.
Because the people who deal with it dont need a video example so keep looking from the outside
Here you go ruclips.net/video/O4ciwjHVHYg/видео.html
@@Paaka There is a race report that recently came out in the UK exploring and trying to explain these disparities. They found that in many areas, black Carribeans have far, far worse outcomes than black Africans, while white working class come out at the bottom with Carribeans. You can't explain that away with racism, and this is just one example that shows that disparities are complex and can be attributed to many factors and not necessarily explained away simply by calling it racism. If you just offhandedly dismiss every issue black people face as being attributed to racism, then you'll never get to the root causes and therefore you will never find effective solutions.
I’ve witnessed plenty of systematic racism. The video shows the stats and numbers and facts. This country was founded on racism. The facts are all around you and always have been for 400+ years and counting. Only a complete coward or abject idiot would act like they don’t see it.

A true example of systemic racism - Canada's INDIAN ACT?
The INDIAN ACT reduced Canada's Aboriginal peoples to legal status as minors. Therefore the Ottawa government of Canada set up a system of apartheid against the First Nations. This discriminatory system must be considered as systemic racism since it is based on laws and principles consciously developed and accepted by the majority of citizens even today. This reality, unworthy of a country that calls itself evolved, largely determines the troubled relations that have existed between Aboriginals and non-Aboriginals since 1876.
An example of discrimination resulting from this law: The INDIAN ACT does not confer any property rights on the Native people since it is impossible for them to buy the lands in the reserves, this one being the exclusive property of the Crown, Crown which belongs to the British Monarchy to which King Charles III was recently elected non-democratically, in office by blood ties only. This state of affairs therefore limits the ability of Aboriginal people to borrow and reduces their financial autonomy. They have different rights from other citizens simply because of their Aboriginal status. This form of segregation is a blatant demonstration of systemic racism.
Examples? How come they don’t give any examples at all.
mass incarceration, prison industrial complex, healthcare, criminal justice system, employment industries are all examples off systemic racism in america

I was in a neighborhood working last night and a bunch of little kids came down the street with a ball and a dog, a bit like the Little Rascals. And they started fighting over the ball like little kids do.

2. I don't see how denying racism exists is internal racism... it's just delusional (edit: or dishonest... which I wouldn't categorize under internal racism, either... just dishonesty. Jessie Lee Peterson denied racism exists... but I don't think he's racist against "black" people.)
why is black in quotes
I like the idea of policies and practices being the substrate of systemic racism. It’s just rare to find people who know of specific policies and practices that are racist. Most policies are not racist.
What’s missing for me is the evidence for racism. It can’t be just the statistical disparities between races because disparities can exist for any number of reasons besides racism. If there are no racist policies you can point to, and most of the people within any given organization don’t harbor negative attitudes towards others based on race, then where’s the racism? How do you know the disparities are because of racism? How do you statistically control for other factors like culture, economics, and temperament?
I’m not trying to deny that racism exists. I just think we need to be more rigorous and more specific about why there are disparities and when those disparities are because of racism and when they are because of something else. We aren’t going to solve racism if what’s really going on is an economic disparity rather than a racial one. At the end of the day, what matters is creating a fair system that gives everyone an equal opportunity for success regardless of race or gender or sex or whatever other irrelevant social category. But to do that, we can’t just go by statistical disparities. It’s not like when we can’t figure out why there’s a disparity, it has to be racism. Racism can’t be the default reason when we can’t think of anything else unless we have good evidence that there is racism. I guess what I’m saying is that I need evidence of racism that isn’t just “there’s a statistical disparity and we don’t know why, so it must be racism.” I mean to be fair, I suppose everyone and their mother could be racist. But I also know that over time, people have become less racist than they were previously in history, so it stands to reason that these disparities should be disappearing. If they are, then we’re on the right track, we just have to wait for the racist people to die out. If they aren’t, then there’s probably more going on than just racism.
To be honest, to me these disparities aren’t due to racism now. They’re due to racism in the past. I’m sure there are still racist people in the system, but not enough to account for these disparities. I think what’s happening is that minorities have been part of a systemically racist society in the past for a long time and the effects of that aren’t going to go away any time soon because now, even though we do live in a relatively racist-free society, most minorities find themselves at economic disadvantages. And they aren’t there because they deserve to be, they’re there because of the history of racism in America. And they’ve been disenfranchised for so long, that a disproportionate amount of them find themselves at the bottom of the economic totem pole. And because most minorities are poor, they have less opportunities than those who are not poor. But it’s not because people and the system are racist now, it’s because minorities are poor now. And yes, the reason they’re poor is because of historical racial injustice, but we can’t fix that if we keep insisting that the reason they’re poor is because of racial injustice now. The system isn’t racist anymore. Now we have to figure out how to get minorities out of poverty who don’t deserve to be there and we have to figure out how to update our cultures to reflect that reality at the same time. White people are used to getting their way, and minorities are used to being oppressed and our cultures have been shaped accordingly.
But all of this means either bending the rules to artificially give minorities opportunities they wouldn’t otherwise have for free, or investing heavily into minority communities so that they have the same opportunities white people do and can then compete fairly. And we’d not only need to pump money into minority communities, but we’d also have to modify their cultures so that they would actually want to compete with white people for positions of power and prominence. Of course pumping money into only non-white poor communities isn’t fair and is racist, but at the same time, how else do you erase the history of inequality from society?
And all of this assumes that our cultural differences are small enough that these disparities will disappear. What if black people just aren’t that interested in STEM? What if they are more drawn to the liberal arts? Are we going to keep saying that STEM is racist if there’s a disparity? How will we know that we’ve actually atoned for the past and undone the effects of racism in the past? I don’t know.
What I do know is that our conversations regarding race need to become more articulate and precise. We can’t afford to just yell racism because we don’t know and then keep trying to scrub out racism from the system even when it isn’t there. We have to be better than that to actually solve the problem and get along as a society. If there’s racism, then by all means, let’s get rid of it as soon as possible. But if there isn’t any, then let’s stop acting as if there is because the consequences of continuing to try to get rid of something that isn’t there is destruction for no reason. There’s real harm in not understanding what a problem is or thinking one thing is a problem when it’s actually something else.
So for heaven’s sake, don’t just say there’s systemic racism because there’s a statistical disparity. Or at minimum, tell us what other factors have been controlled for and what assumptions you had to make in order to control for those factors. And if you can’t do that, then explain which policies are racist and why you think they are racist. Don’t just claim that the entire system is racist or that everyone in the system is racist and then call it a day. What is anyone supposed to do with that information?
I appreciate your taking the time to think it through a bit and to articluate your thoughts.
I agree that the racism of the past has had effects into the present that will effect the quality of life and opportunity of people of certain groups living today. The problem is, where does it start and where does it end? It is an nebulous cloud of ambiguity on how and where it effects any particular individual and now much responsibility each individual has.

You should be delivering Ted talks. We need to kill this "woke" blind radical liberal movement with true talks and discussions like this. They have no evidence or facts behind anything they say and just attack others which is causing more division.
The other factor to account for is that around 60-70% of African Americans live in middle class areas. The disparity we are talking about is indeed bigger than Whites, but its among a smaller subset of the Black population, and Whites also face this poverty on a great numbers level, but a lower level if you want to talk percentages (Which one is more important seems a bit arbitrary).
The bigger question is why do people seem to think only around 20% of Blacks live in Middle Class areas on average when it isn't true. The other question is how do the vast majority of African Americans find a way to live in these areas, or even become the President, when others don't if "racism" is so prevalent.
How do you silently hand wave fatherless figures, lack of care for education even among very well funded Inner City Schools (Like Ballou Highschool), and high rates of teen Pregnancy and keep stating racism? (Not you specifically I mean this in a general sense). IMO, you don't, and when you factor in the higher disparity in those numbers with the wealth Gap, the disparity we see is about exactly what you would expect and it would be very similar if the average White family (Or lack thereof) followed in those same cultural footsteps.
I find the evidence of Racism to be very lacking, especially when the average video on this completely ignores the cultural tendencies and fails to compare them to other cultures. Until a video actually looks at the whole picture instead of one tiny snippet called Racism I, and many other people, simply wont care (and we shouldn't).
It must be so fun to be a victim your whole life. Just blame all your problems on a system instead of taking responsibility

I was at a DMV in Cali with a buddy so he could show a receipt of a $500 fine paid to reinstate his license. He had an appointment so we didn't wait long before a nice Black woman called us up. He explained the issue and she said, "no problem, that will be $500 please...cash only". He explained that the receipt was for the $500 fine and that he had just paid at the police office. To make a long story short, she said to him "look, I don;t think you understand what is going on here, if you want your license today you gotta pay $500 cash...or you can make another appointment at another DMV. Now, while you think it over, I'm going to take a 5 min break and you go ahead and take a good look around you at all these faces. Do you think anyone here is going to help you or believe you? Nope."
She then went off for her break laughing with some coworkers. Afterwards she came back and said "Hello how can I help you?" He handed her the receipt dumbfounded and she said:
"Well that will be $500...cash".
Now that is institutional power and systemic racism. Did I mention he is white? And everyone there was mostly Black and some Latinos. Just saying it can happen to anyone and perpetuated by anyone.

To me systemic racism is when the legal and workplace policies and systems document different biases based on skin color or other immutable characteristics. What individuals think is not systemic. I think systemic racism (by true definition) was eradicated from legal documents, pay rates and company policies a long time ago. Any one care to show an example where it is not?

The median black eighth-grader does not possess even basic math skills. “Basic” skills, as defined by the National Assessment of Education Progress exam, means partial mastery of grade-related knowledge. Fifty-three percent of black eighth-graders scored “below basic” on math in 2017. Only 11 percent of black eighth-graders were proficient in math, and 2 percent were advanced. By contrast, 20 percent of white eighth-graders were below basic in 2017, 31 percent were proficient, and 13 percent were advanced. Only 12 percent of Asian eighth-graders were below basic, 32 percent were proficient, and 32 percent were advanced.

Racism exists. Systemic racism, in particular, means that there are laws that work against a specific race. In the US, that did exist at one point, about 100 years ago. There are no laws that inhibit a particular race from success or thriving. Ironically, the people that claim the man is oppressing them usually haven't done the work necessary. Of the countless black (or otherwise) CEOs and business owners I've met, none of them complain about systemic racism.

Classic American strategy: Fracture the working class along racial lines to prevent them from having enough political clout to harm the interests if the wealth.
1) Poor white share croppers vs black slaves (Plantation System)
2) Poor whites vs free African Americans (Jim Crow)
Here's the thing about class based policies:
1) Any group facing systematic barrier will make up a greater share of the lower classes
2) Policies that solely focus on class would exclusively benefit the lower classes
1 + 2 = Groups facing systemic barriers would disproportionately benefit
Naturally the rich don't want that. So they do things like race based Affirmative Action
1) Poor and middle class white families who send their kids to crappy schools hate it, because they get screwed
2) Poor and middle class black families who send their kids to crappy schools won't see any benefit
3) Rich white families will still be sending their kids to elite schools
4) Rich black families will be sending their kids to elite schools
If it was class based, kids going to poor crappy schools would get spots and the rich kids wouldn't. But we can't have that now can we?

When I was arrested and charged, I was denied bail and told by my lawyers that if I did not plead guilty I could be sitting in jail waiting longer for a trial date than the amount of time that they were seeking and that I could be given twice the amount of time or more for not taking "responsibility " if found guilty at trial.
So due to those circumstances, I pled guilty knowing that I was innocent, because I didn't want to sit in jail waiting longer for a trial date than the time they were seeking, especially when prison Conditions can be cruel and unusual and trial dates can be unreasonably delayed and convictions can be wrongful and appeals can be often denied.
I pled guilty knowing I was innocent because I did not want to deal with the stress, fear, frustration, malice, or the confusion caused by systemic racism.
I pled guilty knowing that Elizabeth May Terry (lizzie terry) made false allegations in order to steal twenty-three thousand dollars of furniture and electronics from me in retaliation for cheating with her sister
As a victim of systemic racism you do not committ crimes, you just suffer the consequences of crimes like an innocent bystander.
Systemic racism made me the victim look like the criminal and the actual criminal look like the victim. Even when you tell the truth they will make you out to to be the liar and then make the actual liar out to be the one telling the truth.
They will pick sides without knowing the truth or without seeking the truth, and then concoct or make whatever side they think they can make look like the truth.
Everything you say or do they use against you especially in the court of law where everyone in positions of authority are white or have to answer directly or indirectly to someone white. That's white supremacy. Racism, that has been perfected and systematized.
I do not need anyone to tell me that I'm innocent when I know that I am innocent. The video proves I'm innocent. The same video that the judge refused to watch.
I pled guilty knowing that I did not committ any offense, knowing that I was innocent, just to get out of jail and they knew that. Now that I'm out, I take that guilty plea right back. I giveth, therefore I taketh.
I shouldn't have went to jail in the first place. They will lock you up, ruin your life, take everything from you, then release you with nothing. That's racism. They didn't have to lock me up when they knew they was eventually going to release me. They could have released me from the beginning.

That is not systematic racism. That is a problem with the justice system being in the age of irrelevant is your innocence, give them scare tactics, to take a plea bargain for lower sentence.

I'm sorry that medical doctors cure more diseases than witch doctors, I'm sorry 1 man 1 woman marriages make for a better society than a tribal chief having 20 wives while 19 other men are left out, I'm sorry that going to a job one time is more productive than hunting bush meat for a village. America is a powerful nation, and European ways of doing things are more productive and powerful than West African ways of doing things. That doesn't mean African people are inferior, that just means there's some catching up to do, and the best way for Blacks to catch up to Whites is to keep the rules the same and equal for everyone, and let a few centuries roll by. Social progress takes time, I hate to break it to the world.
@@rickshaw296 I see where your coming from with the lazy argument but the use of stereotypes was unnecessary half of the people who are identified as African American in America are actually Caribbean or South America which is no where near Africa
"Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take but by the moments that take our breath away." ~ George P. Floyd Jr.
drugs will do that
Wow a 7 minute.
Preaching systemic racism will only make racism grow.
Its racist to say racism doesnt exist? Who is it racist against?
black people?
so it's just the sum of basic individual racism
Shouldn't KGW be focused on systemic homelessness, crime, private property damage, rats, garbage, human feses in the streets of Portland etc...?
Alot of people creating careers out of victimizing whole cultures.
Humans can’t stop racism. Only the Creator Jehovah can.
All that talk about systems and then the bait and switch. What can you do? Fix your implicit bias. Errrmmm. Very systemic. There's interpersonal oppression and there's systemic oppression. Dismantle both. But when people try to conflate the two, they deserve zero trust.
Interesting that there are all these made-up terms that don't really exist.
What is really racist and discriminated against is win I’ve put a lot of work into a theory not trying to hurt anybody’s feelings and RUclips deletes it. So we can’t even have a debate about those because somebody else won without any challenge
And yes I used the voice option and understand there will be typos run on sentences etc. etc.
If systemic racism was real, black actors and actresses wouldn’t be figureheads in the movie industry, hip hop wouldn’t be the modern day world’s most popular genre of music, and the NFL & NBA wouldn’t consist of 70-85% black players. Also, the asian population wouldn’t consist of over half their 6-7% population havin earned their college degrees and havin some of the highest payed salaries in this country.
White people profit of every type of work you listed.
There needs to be equal representation of the races in sports therefore, 80% ofvthe nfl players should be white. Is that where we're going?
A few visible race tokens on display is not a solution!
Racism and how to get rid of it is to teach it in all schools, starting in elementary school.
Discussing with students the cause of racism ,the history of racism in the US including slavery and how to prevent it in the future is a good idea. The only way to prevent the cruelty to black people is to start with the young. A massive paradigm shift to equality is sorely needed.Children need to be taught that we should all be equal .
Sure as long as we have classes preserved for not being mean to fat people, or skinny people, or people who wear glasses, or people who are too pale, or people who are poor, or too rich, or for people who aren't quite as smart, or for people who are autistic, or for people who have downs, or for people who are too smart, or for people who have odd fashion choices, or for people who are trans, or for people who are gay, or for people who are..... Wait why are you making Racism seem like the sole one to focus on again?
Point being we have a manners problem. Race isn't a special offense, its one in a massive house of offenses people face everyday.
@@TheWhisperingPenis I agree that ridiculing others or putting each other down for any reason is wrong. Sadly, and I have experienced it In my life, is that in a group or clique that they can become mean to others outside their clique. I have found that when joining a group and ridiculing others happens I tell these people it is wrong ,then have nothing to do with them and leave the group completely. Small mindedness wastes my time and energy. I was not raised to treat others wrongly.
@@Toto-cl8rw I agree. Its kind of the concept of group think and or pack mentality. Its why I generally dislike social situations because it can turn a generally nice person into a monster just to fit in. Even in small minor ways people just get more abusive, aggressive in groups to impress others. Not necessarily outright physical abuse (but there is that too).
Just treat people well is my motto. Treat people with love, you dont have to understand them just understand they are people.
@@TheWhisperingPenis I believe that a person raised to be respectful of others go a long ways. These days nastiness seems to be the trend. Friends that are part of a bullying group are not worth knowing, and to me, a waste of time. I choose friends that have the maturity to act like adults . Sadly many adults act like spoiled children, and should not be respected.
What about racial differences:? IQ
So...... What is systemic racism???
Anyone here give me the “system” that is racist.? What people.? What place.?
honestly really sad to see how many ignorant people are in this comment section
George Floyd is still sober.
no he is drunk
Prejudging people is what we are trying to solve.
NON-SENSE!!!!!
🤦♂️
I'd like to hear more people talk about the Uyghur Genocide. I think a million people being held, and becoming "no longer with us" in internment camps in khina, is just slightly important.
Sure buddy, you germans don't even want to hear or admit to the genocide you're forefathers committed in what is now called usa.
