The court ended one of our most effective social justice policies because anything that isn’t seen to primarily benefit white people is anathema to this country.
The racial wealth gap is a selective problem that is encompassed entirely within the general, race-less problem of poverty in the United States. Fixing the big problem also checks off your small one.
Great; then you shouldn’t object to fixing the racial wealth gap as a way to end poverty. Unless you actually are fine with Black people being poorer and having worse access to education than white people?
I object to only solving part of the problem in a way that disadvantages other groups. Lifting a certain group out of poverty while suppressing another, entirely based on race is, well, racist. Kinda simple
So there being more black people in poverty, would selecting more of the impoverished not work towards solving the racial wealth gap?
And why should a white or Asian person that can’t keep the lights on be given less of a chance than an affluent black person with a worse application?
No, because you’re not targeting the racial wealth gap, you’re targeting impoverishment.
Because we’re trying to fix the endemic, pervasive, and unchanging racial wealth gap. Not something else.
Not sure what’s so hard about this concept. Can’t we try to fix the racial wealth gap? And also, separately, whatever causes you otherwise care about?

So we enslave, murder, and steal from a whole group of people and then turn around and say that helping them afterwards is racist?
What a bad take.
Not at the expense of other races. In 2023 you don’t exactly get to choose what races you value over others. Thanks SCOTUS.
