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.

Conclusion: stop funding schools using property taxes.
literally !!!!!!!
I live in a rural county. I'm in one of very few conservative counties in my state. We have some of the lowest property taxes in our state. We also have a lower population because the area is primarily rural. Very few "neighborhoods" exist where i live. Yet, our schools have consistently been named as some of the best in the state. We have schools with playgrounds and fields for lacrosse, football and baseball. (even at the elementary school) Tax revenue is hardly the primary reason for a school to be good or bad, it's the people in it. Other than that, it's just a building.
@@leftoverporkchop9972 not quite, redlining rules change by state, county, and town (again depending on the state) It's not federal so it can vary on how the state wants to fund rural areas.
@@nutella1343 agreed, however, per student our adjacent "big city" (in the news alot lately) outspends us per student by 80%.
@@nutella1343 not to mention after covid the schools received billions for upgrading HVAC systems etc. yet here recently they are closing schools as the summer temps arrive because they don't have airconditioning.
“His teachers are very well paid”
Yeah that’s a lie for any school.
Absolutely. Also, do these people think that schools in poor white areas also aren’t underfunded for the exact same reasons? This is video’s arguments are very flimsy
@@aaronlandry3934 False argument. There was no argument made that poor whites go to better schools. The argument is that if you are born white in America you have a higher probability of getting ahead than a non-white person. The argument made is that there was deliberate bias in choosing which district to red-line.
Ed Bruce No, this video’s argument is based on blatant stereotypes that every non-white person is poor and is therefore disadvantaged in life in multiple ways. However, reality pokes several holes into an argument this flimsy. The mere existence of poor white people debunks the entire part about race, because if it were race based, poor white areas wouldn’t also be redlined.
Additionally, it intentionally leaves out things such as Affirmative Action and mandatory diversity requirements for companies, because they contradict other points claimed in here that were likely drawn from some flimsy Sociology “studies” that cherry-picked evidence to go off of (imagine Sociology being unscientific. Unbelievable, I know.).
@@aaronlandry3934 I cast my vote here as well, the fact is education has been the down right culprit in much of today's issues. Much of education is wish washed into only providing a single perspective instead of exploring history to its fullest (Good and the Bad). The other thing is many cities that have high minority low wage populations happen to be cities with many corrupt politicians for many years. Keep voting them in and you will never see change in your area.

Propaganda my friend
Cuz this video is literally bullshit
@@jewishboi771 Nah, not really
@lv702fully Nah.
Because if you ever learn the facts and know how the creator of this video manipulates the viewer and pivots into "systemic racism" you'd realize this is a race baiter and race hustler that's misinforming and miseducating the viewer. This is literally race war propaganda.
How can this theory explains the undeniable economic success of people of asian descent ?
its not a theory its a fact he is talking about black people who were brought here as slaves Asians were not slaves in America read the history only blacks were slaves in this country..systemic racism was mad against black people too keep us down and in jail most of the jails in America are filled wt black people not whites or asians so what are you talking about theory wake up and get your head out of clouds we are oppressed
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.
This isu true, but I don't see yall speaking out against it, it seems like black folks have to fight yall battle.And they shouldn't unless ur black hispanic. I hear black fols say black and brown, but I don't hear hisapnics saying black and brown. Hispanic is not a race by the way its just a culture
I understand and agree wt what you are saying but brown people fall in the black category too y'all are black people too the first slave trade started in south America first
It also applies to the white trailer park neighborhoods
There’s an Asian immigrant kid in Jamal’s district that scored higher on the SAT than Kevin.
Even if kevin would have higher marks, when they both apply for the same job, the employer would prefer the asian, because of the bias against the kevin that he is less competent than the asian or the white. That happens all the time in america.
Jimmy James bruh black people are more likely to get a scholarship than Asian people. There is no bias. Actually research and don’t assume America is racist lol
Both my sons scored almost 1600 on the SAT. I was furious that neither got a perfect 1600.
@thethought police prove that black people are less likely to get a call back.
@skateboardkaylee no the point was even in a poorly funded school, a student can do well. Kids arent failing school because of the building, they just dont care, and their parents dont care either
They really named the black kid "Jamal". LMFAOOOOO
I know like its a good video but like 😭😭😭
XD STOP
They did that on purpose. If you actually watch the video, they made a point in giving him a black sounding name because studies have shown white sounding resumes get more interview requests than other ethnic names. There are many studies where in an experiment where there's the same resume and the only variable is the name, the whtie names get more opprotunities. 3:05
That was the point. To show how implicit bias works...
It’s for the later example of “white and black sounding” names
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?
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.
I am white and grew up relatively poor. However, my family were able to easily obtain a mortgage and buy a home in the area they desired. I had access to great Schools. Thanks to living in thriving community I was able to get my first job at 15 and I have never been discriminated against because of my skin color. Just because you're poor, doesn't mean you don't have privileges.
@@lastgames3611 But I HAVE been discriminated against for my skin color, by Asians, Blacks, Hispanics, Persian.
But I don't assume all of them are a-holes just because some of them are.
@@jamesreck8476 You can't be discriminated against because of your skin color when you're white. You can experience prejudice for sure, but not discrimination.
@@lastgames3611 I didn't see that coming , discrimination and prejudice are two different things and of course you are right.
@lastgames3611 this statement doesn't make sense to me. How can minorities not be racist to other races? You're saying this isn't possible. Prove it. Change my mind.
Actually the city of Detroit has one of the highest education budgets and the schools still suck. Maybe change the leadership of the city
But they might still follow this system and that's why the system itself has to be abolished
Maybe if people take more time in grooming their children the schools could be a better place. It starts at home it's not the teacher's fault. Money can't build a better person if they have no interest in changing their habits and behavior.
@@KrowKaws but the system works in other places? It is what we make of it.
Train better teachers. They’re the ones that inspire or quell the dreams of children. If the child has no one to rely on in their life, then a good teacher that listens and cares and encourages can save them from poverty and failure.
You are exactly right. If a team isn’t doing well, get a new coach.

Aren’t the terms “white sounding names” and “black sounding names” forms of implicit bias?
Aerospace Engineer99 I agree. In addition, if we follow the logic of the presentation, when people of African descent use “white sounding names,” are they then “appropriating” from the European culture? I believe this ideology is a slippery slope. Racism exists. However, to claim present systemic racism is a bit difficult to totally conceive. I think too many people compare themselves to others when they should be comparing themselves to how they were yesterday.
No it isnt.. its just facts..
I was thinking the same but they did it like that to show the point of what name the companies see on a resume and how it changes their perception to hire them or not

You can't stop people from having implicit biases. These stereotypes will always come to people's minds, and they themselves know that many of the stereotypes are based on true tendencies. But you can get people to remind themselves that not all individuals of a certain ethnicity necessarily conform to the stereotypes.

👏👏👏
Sure - your statement isn't wrong about matters that do relate with land/wealth (i.e. school resources, as mentioned at the start of the video). However you should also consider that only 10% of non-Hispanic white Americans live in poverty, while 26% of black Americans do (one in fucking four). Ideally you would want a system that means that black people aren't 2.6 times more likely to be in a poverty-stricken school district. Other issues such as incarceration (probably causing the greatest negative impact on black Americans as it becomes a lifetime sentence for the prisoner and causes mass disturbance in their families, with fatherless children often shown to have much, much more difficult upbringings) have more clear racial biases, but again, as you point out, could be related back to poverty. Black Americans have traditionally been incarcerated for "poor" drugs such as crack or heroine, while white Americans don't particularly suffer similar consequences for "rich" drugs, most notably cocaine. So yes, there is no doubt that racism is linked to poverty, but it's more likely that the relationship is inverse to what you suggest - racism causes poverty.
It sounds like redlining was done around poor African American neighborhoods more so than poor white neighborhoods. That’s what the video seems to be saying and re-enforcing with the fact that poor white people have been more likely to get a loan than middle class black people.
As someone who grew up in a poor white slum. daughterclam is not entirely accurate. We do not tend to get loans because we tend to be in far too much debt. Our cars get towed. There's barely any food to put on the table. Clothing comes from Walmart or other cheap places and rarely. The schooling is only good if you are lucky enough to find a slum in a decent neighborhood, or if the district covers a good neighborhood along with a bad one. There are much more African Americans in poverty than white's but the only way poverty is better for the white community is the job situation. It's only somewhat better for the white household though if you are comparing someone who is black to a single mom who isn't overly attractive. I love these videos for educational purposes because too many priviledged white don't realize these things, but I do admit it is detrimental to the poverty stricken white community since these videos do tend to cause people to determine if you are priviledged based on your skin color.
That’s what I was thinking how is this racist this happens all over the world it’s not white Privilege there is no such thing it’s just life there is all kind of people livening in Poverty not just black people
This video is extremely educational
What I continue to find amusing is how “Hollywood” portrays blacks in movies and commercials. Although most criminals are blacks, the “good blacks” appear in scenes where their homes are beautiful and their life styles are very expensive. The interracial families are dressed in designer clothes. The kids go to awesome looking schools. They all drive around in fancy looking automobiles. The parents are doctors, lawyers, educators, highly ranked military and police men and women, politicians, and businessmen. Their kids play sports and attend top ranked colleges. I never saw these movies when I was a kid living in a Southie project! Gosh darn, we’ve come a long way as a country. Racial tensions have been calmed! The television commercials are even better. They’d have us believe that the U.S. population is one of interracial lovers, parents, and kids. Everyone is dressed in fine clothing, has a nice home, and has an expensive car. Seriously, this is wonderful. Blacks dominate sports, government, education, communications, businesses, medicine, entertainment, etc. Finally moving on! God Bless America.

Would have liked to have seen more facts, resources etc to support the statements made in the video rather than simply giving a hypothetical narrative and calling it true. I think the problem, although very real, is highly oversimplified in this video. You pretend like the civil rights movements have not achieved anything and that literally every white person is a racist. I think it is dangerous to address a serious issue in such a populistic way. If this were just an example, fine ( maybe ) but the title literally says "Systemic Racism Explained" and it does not even scratch the surface.

You can’t deny the destruction of God. You were warned as Ramses. I in fact feel sorry for you. You will answer to God and pay.
Not once did they even hint at the concept of personal responsibility. The most important factor in educational success is not whether or not your school has shiney new facilities. The most important factor is what is going on at home. Kids that are from families with a mom and a dad will have a better chance of success that those from single parent homes. Kids that have successful parents as a role model have a better chance than kids who don't have good role models at home. This is not a question of skin color. Poor white kids from the trailer park are disadvantaged in the same way as anyone else. Why do these people who are always wailing about racism never want to talk about the impact of broken families?
Because that makes people think critically about their actions and people don’t vote for Democrats when they think about their actions.
CRT isn’t even correct because Asian Americans earn more than white families do on average (“evidence of Asian Supremacy”) and white Latino families are pretty poor on average. The most common link is not race, but Education.
Naturally, someone with only a high school diploma’s income is not going to stack well against someone with a bachelors degree’s income. Asian Americans invest very heavily into education, so stats match up

I think all schools should be funded equally based on the size.
@Andre K said, "I think all schools should be funded equally based on the size." I think schools should be funded by the students via vouchers that allows school choice even if it isn't in their district or if it is private schools. But unfortunately, the liberal elite want to protect failing public schools by denying parents their choice in education. Marva Collins was an educator who aimed high for poor black students in Chicago. [From an article after her death in 2015] "She began with four students, including her daughter, charging $80 a month in tuition. Enrollment at the school, on Chicago’s South Side, grew to more than 200, in classes from prekindergarten through eighth grade. It remained in operation for more than 30 years.
Ms. Collins set high academic standards, emphasized discipline and promoted a nurturing environment. She taught phonics, the Socratic method and the classics and, she insisted, she never expected her students to fail.
@@UncleBearski I agree with that also. The school boundaries need to go as well. Where I grew up there was no such thing as school boundaries. Kids were traveling from the country to attend school in the city.

In fact, you can go to the wiki page now and see there's still banks getting sued for Redlining as recent as 2015. In case you're too lazy to look it up:
_"The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development announced a $200 million settlement with Associated Bank over redlining in Chicago and Milwaukee in May 2015. _*_The three-year HUD observation led to the complaint that the bank purposely rejected mortgage applications from black and Latino applicants._*_ The final settlement required AB to open branches in non-white neighborhoods, just like HSBC._
_"New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman announced a settlement with Evans Bank for $825,000 on September 10, 2015. An investigation had uncovered the erasure of black neighborhoods from mortgage lending maps. _*_According to Schneiderman, of the over 1,100 mortgage applications the bank received between 2009 and 2012, only four were from African Americans._*_ Following this investigation, the Buffalo News reported that more banks could be investigated for the same reasons in the near future."_
_"The United States Department of Justice announced a $33 million settlement with Hudson City Savings Bank, which services New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania, on September 24, 2015. _*_The six-year DOJ investigation had proven that the company was intentionally avoiding granting mortgages to Latinos and African Americans and purposely avoided expanding into minority-majority communities._*_ The Justice Department called it the "largest residential mortgage redlining settlement in its history." As a part of the settlement agreement, HCSB was forced to open branches in non-white communities."_

One thing not mentioned- are students from poorer backgrounds are more likely to have to work throughout school and universities, which can interfere with their study time.
I'm a white kid from a lower-middle class family and had to work through college because none of the scholarships were available to me due the color of my skin. If you want to bring up not mentioning things.
Cali Marie My point is that inequality is systemic. Someone from a poorer background has the cards stacked against them - black or white. Americans have this idea that anyone who works hard enough can become wealthy, when that is not true. Some people can work their way to wealth, but many can’t. Students who have less time to study may get poorer marks, and so not get the best jobs or may have to drop out.
The relevance to race is a higher proportion of African Americans come from poorer backgrounds. This is not a conscious bias, but is a reality.
BTW the poorer American economic safety nets (compared to other OECD) is something I think Americans need to think about. Many of the issues being raised in this video affect poorer whites. So I would expect some of the solutions being proposed would be supported by anyone who is from a disadvantaged background, because they would help right across the racial divide.
R F Which is why Americans need to see inequality (economic, racial etc) as a systemic issue that needs to be addressed.
That's a great point, probably just not too relevant here.

SirGarforth Same could be said for Republicans. When is the last time Republican lawmakers have helped the working class? And yet the working white trudge out dutifully and blindly to do their duty, believing that if tax rates are cut, services slashed, they’ll somehow rise out of their misery. Compare the working class lifestyle of U.S. and Canadian border towns (where capitalism is embraced but social policies are also tolerated). There is no question where any sane person would rather live. If you don’t believe me, google streetview Ogdensburg, NY and Brockville, Ontario, just for example.
@@LinkMcStink It's because they have a tribalistic mindset and ideology. No matter if they know that these policies are directly affecting black Americans, they will still continue to vote because they are brainwashed. I think a major contributor and the root to their ideology and brainwashing is their hatred for Trump. They hate Trump so much that they would rather see the country burn and people suffer rather then see Trump and Americans succeed. They want Trump to fail so bad that they would even sacrifice themselves to do so. And this is coming from a lifelong Democrat who can see through these radical ideologies.

@@HanHanMC I don't have any data on your first claim. However I can give you an example of that leads to my one objection. That of affirmative action is a policy that is meant to be good but bad practice. You see you are saying that admission into an elite or top 50 university should be based on merit ability and other factors and not race. However the practice does the exact contrary it allows certain groups or individuals to get into college with a lower SAT score and GPA. This is supposed to be a boost or an advantage that is based on something that other groups have no control over.
Your Steelin my Sunshine I’m very confident that colleges do not do affirmative action in that way. You still have to have the grades, you still have to be intelligent enough. Why would they let someone in to college who does not qualify for it? Have you even been to college dude

That’s why trailer parks also got redlined.

Everyone should realize that teachers get paid a flat rate by the county they teach in, you don’t make more for teaching at a specific school in a county, it’s based off a pay scale that is unchanging and the slot you earn on the scale depends on years experience and level of degree you hold.
Also historically the public schools that pay the most are inner city schools since they have more money from city taxes. They also typically need to pay more for higher costs of living and to incentivize teachers to work in those schools that are more challenging due to larger class sizes and a lower levels of parental involvement.
The public school teacher salary system is negotiated by the teacher's union. If you don't like how salaries are distributed, blame the teachers union.
But extra funds and PTA funds do affect if teachers need to purchase supplies for their students or their out classroom. And lower income schools, the kids have less field trip opportunities. I worked with a school, inviting them to ballets, operas, and musicals to expose the students to shows they couldn't have afforded to attend and the school didn't have the funds to pay for the students. I worked with the local theaters to get tickets donated.

spot light Which is incorrect. www.google.com/amp/s/money.com/rich-families-lose-wealth/%3famp=true . This shows that only 30% of wealthy families retain their wealth after the second generation and that 70% of wealthy families are first generations. This disproves white privilege and proves that anyone can become wealthy with the right luck and work ethic.
spot light Present any evidence that this “white racism” exists currently on a large scale (not some isolated incident with some racist asshole) and that not being white puts you at a disadvantage.
Currently, the opposite is very true with things such as mandatory diversity quotas for companies and Affirmative Action for universities, which also discriminated against Asian Americans because “there’s too many of them” in universities.
“But you’re delusions are not reality” Why are you telling me this? I’m the one providing factual evidence that disproves this video’s claims. If you think I’m wrong and want to prove it, present your evidence, but if you cannot do so, your claims are nothing more than myths.
spot light Apparently you’re extremely delusional. Slavery ended almost two centuries ago and Civil Rights have been in place for over a half century. Asian Americans also got Civil Rights at the same time, yet they’re on average more prosperous than whites and black are. Is this evidence of Asian supremacy or systemic racism in favor of Asian Americans? Don’t be foolish.
Jim Crow ended in the 1960’s. Again, Asian Americans and Native Americans also got their Civil Rights around the same time. Try something a bit more recent.
Nobody said that white people couldn’t still be racist, I said present evidence that it is widespread and impactful. Your own sources seems to admit “We have no evidence, but if we interpret things in just the right way and disregard all logical assumptions, it might be racially motivated”, which sounds more like some crackpot conspiracy theory than anything one would consider academic. There is no concrete evidence here, because there is no evidence of it. Actual data disproves the claims: www.google.com/amp/s/www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/2020/07/15/police-shooting-study-retracted/%3foutputType=amp .
You can find a few nut picked incidents of white racism towards black people, but you can do that with every race of people. Very easy to do with a country as racially diverse as the US.
Actually, the Bureau of Labor Statistics show that black unemployment is only about 150% of the total unemployment rate, not double. Part of this likely stems from the fact that black Americans play a larger than average role in the Not in Labor Force section and on average earn less than other groups, meaning that black Americans are more likely to work low skill jobs where layoffs aren’t uncommon and are more likely to not work (maybe to goof off and do whatever, or maybe because a single mother wanted to be more involved with her childrens’ lives. The Bureau of Labor Statistics didn’t record reasons). www.bls.gov/opub/reports/race-and-ethnicity/2018/home.htm
spot light RUclips does that with prison statistics too.
Anyhow, yeah, I said you can point out a handful of nutpicked incidents that prove absolutely nothing. Like I said, happens to every group you can’t think of, but to prove this systemic racism myth, you have to empirically prove that it’s widespread and negatively impacted people that are not white. You last source essentially admitted that they don’t have much of any evidence to go off of and like I said, you can but pick discrimination cases for every group of people. Empirical evidence is necessary to back up your claim or else it’s just a conspiracy theory.
“There is another class of coloured people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public.

The problem with the idea of 'systemic racism' is that it is not a predicable model, nor does it take in account the true systematic co-motivators for the problem. It is a conflict-perspective view of society which I feel it the worst social approach there is. A large part of the problem never spoke upon is the car-based welfare only to poor driven urban planning we have created. It was even mentioned in the video about the local tax problem. That has the major impact that lead to Jamal living in poverty and crime. The way we develop our city into isolated communities and neighborhoods that are solely residential means that we are highly subjected to the effects of property, people are more protective of their neighborhoods, and rich and poor have access to vastly different resources. Throw the fact that public transportation sucks and the lack of blended public spaces, all of this has far more reaching implications on poorer people than systematic racism does in the modern world. The redlining does exist as does other racial motivated issues with police. I would never deny things where there is rightful evidence of such things, but beyond what we can substantiate, all else is speculative, which goes back to my original problem with the term. It's used simultaneously to be descriptive and prescriptive in a way. When we try to understand something we don't prescribe the motivations of all actors in the system as a foregone conclusion. It is totally possible that what looks like racism is motivated by multiple factors in reality. Also, it is important to know why the racism is occuring in the first place and not be essentialist about what the social-psychology of racism is. This is the realm of moral prescriptivism and is likely to actually have unintended outcomes for the people it proports to help.
Systemic racism does not exist in America
systemic racism is Demonic behavior, THE END!
I’m not so sure about what you’ve said. While I agree with roughly the first half of this. You are presenting this as: “if there are a multitude of factors that contribute to ‘x’ then systematic racism is foreclosed as a possible cause.” I also agree that systemic racism is too easily and freely used by people, often to the detriment of the affected but, in all of what you said, you never actually addressed why these race neutral mechanisms do statistically impact certain races more than others. Again, while I agree that the charge of systemic racism should not be so freely levied, I also get the feeling that many people irrationally recoil when they hear the term and seek to obscure the situation by “moving the goalpost” and essentially ask for direct evidence of a literal cabal making overtly racist decisions to disenfranchise a minority group which ignores the “systemic” component of the term. Lastly, based on what you said, why do you think racism exists?
@@jenlet3956 Answering why racism exists is a tough one and I think you could breakdown racism into several forms. Obvious being ignorant due to lack of interaction with a race or ethnicity and willingful hateful with a doctrine are different forms of racism but to the people experiencing them they might feel the same.
I think ignorance and fear are the two largest driving factors, while the human propensity for dogmatic thinking and tribalism are what can amplify these to larger forms of hatred. Education and integration are ideally the solution, but cultural proclivities can often serve as a wedge for two races or ethnicities from intergrating with one another. People will forever notice physical differences. People will forever abide by dogmatic thought about social interaction. And people will always adhere to the group by which they most identify. This is a sad reality, but I think maximizing positive interactions, dispelling stereotypes, and making society both functionally and systematically fair in terms of access to resources and education are the best shots we have.

16% of black kids stuck in NYC schools meet proficiency in English and math.....all this at a cost of $20,000 per student, per year
@@lou22boy foolish comment....ur food, car, clothes, etc... Are made by for profit companies
Everyone works for a profit too....unless financially independent
This is propaganda. If you believe this, you’re not truly researching. Please do your own research and don’t be lazy. Don’t take this as proof
@Anthony Strong bastards disproportionately make poor students.....sad, not having a father isn't their fault.....but once they rape, murder, etc....... reform school is over, and off to jail. Heartbreaking
@Who Asked
It's wrong because public schools in each community are funded by local tax dollars. Key word is local. By letting people go anywhere, you create multiple problems. For one, other districts will be fighting for tax dollars as classes swell or shrink when schools are always the first thing to be on the chopping block whenever some politician over-spends on personal pet projects and then insist we "must balance the budget".
Charter schools are private schools that steal public funds and haven't been able to show any concrete results of being better than the public school, so they're also stealing funds (and usually these Charter schools are owned by wealthy people, so they're able to influence public officials to cut funding to public schools and give the money to them).
So now you have schools that are already underfunded struggling because now they have to be able to accommodate children not in their district, which means they're typically not local, and have to deal with transportation and other things that are likely not going to be considered when allocating funds.
I'm white and I grew up mostly like Jamal. Where's the racism there?
pandering, agenda pushing. not really a race problem
@mysteryman2024 Damn mystery man don't you fucking get it??!!! Sure it was made illegal in 1968 but they find ways to get around it!! As recently as 2008. Read about one of the main reasons the market crashed in 2008!!
@mysteryman2024 I'd rather study history than go to a rally. So I can be ready for the next move you all make!!History repeats itself
@@sabirabdul-lateef5352 what do you mean YOU ALL ? Who is you .. if a white guy said to you would you not think thats racist... YOU PEOPLE. Way to go buddy.
@@sabirabdul-lateef5352 you have a point about class tho. There is a bigger class problem then racism problem but the media is happy to keep that from us and plug racism so we arent focused on the fact poor people are discriminatied against everywhere
Don’t buy in Neighbourhood that’s “redlined” investment advice….
"this is jamal" i can't-
The way this video explains “systemic racism” is the same way a 6 year old would explain coloring inside the line.
yeah it's a simple 4 minute cartoon that lets idiots like you understand the topic
@@cateurich6106 Come from immigrant white Slavic family. You could make a 4 hour documentary and I still wouldn't get it.
Maybe I'm not privileged enough to get it. Would make sense considering a lot of you seem to have no jobs and still have money to survive somehow.
that made no sense, you should sue the school that educated you because they did a bad job
@@cateurich6106 clearly you don’t understand that this video has nothing to do with race, rather it has to do with economic class. It tries to illustrate it as a racial problem by simply putting a black individual in the lower class and white individual in the upper class. If you switched the characters around it would still be the same result.
@ He is correct though. If you were to take Jaden Smith and compare his life to the life of say “Trent”, who grew up in a trailer park, you’d get the exact same results. Does this mean that the system is racist to white people? No, race has nothing to do with the outcome here. The common link is economic struggles, not racial ones.
Another factor that may very well be relevant here is marital rates vs single motherhood rates. Naturally, a two parent household will be able to better provide for their children. Unfortunately, this is statistically uncommon in black American households: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/African-American_family_structure#History . This could also explain why Asian Americans are completely excluded from videos like this, as they’re usually more successful than white Americans tend to be.
