How do we span the racial wealth gap? | William A. Darity Jr. | TEDxDurham

[@haroldsimpson8422]

This Man is 🔥, can you imagine Dr. Claude Anderson, and Dr. Darity on the same panel discussing Reparations. That would be something I would literally pay for as oppose to these confused as entertainers who does nothing but sing, dance, jump, run, and fight. There is nothing wrong with that, but until we as a acculturated, and deprived people start putting the same emphasis on this type of topic as we do with a paying and watching sports for hours we will remain this 4th class people who make every other culture rich except our own. Real talk not one Arab or Chinese business should thrive in our community, but not only do they thrive we literally make them WEALTHY as Dr. Darity so eloquently spoke about. Family, we have to wake up.

There can never be an equality of opportunity and equality of outcome without removing free will from the equation.

[@kevinboone2178]

Your sentence is awkward, so which of the following best describes your POV, and why? 1 -- There can't be equality of opportunity and outcome if free will is in the equation. 2 - There can't be equality of opportunity and outcome absent free will.

Why does it have to be the federal government? Why not voluntary measures instead of coercive?

sounds great..but it may not work if student loans are not dealt with.

[@therecyclingguy256]

2020.... US Federal Reserve just printed 6 Trillion dollars in 90 days bc of COVID 19...money is subjective.....debt based economy..... ppl are starting to wake up.

Financial literacy. People shouldn't spend $100K on a psychology degree from an out of state school that has a great football program. Students are not forced to get these loans.

So...an African-American claims that African-Americans need "reparations"? Color me (not) shocked. Conflict of interest, much?

[@sksimmons1336]

Who else would advocate for reparations? A society built on racial hierarchy? I’m hoping you’re just a bot and not another clueless human being.

[@muffdiver240]

@@sksimmons1336 This isn't about "reparations" NOR "advocacy" but attempted extortion. Don't know where you or "Anne Zeno" are from, but American society isn't built on "racial hierarchy". America remains a democratic meritocracy.

@@muffdiver240 That is exactly how it was built, now instead of arguing with the people in the comment section, maybe you should refute some of Dr. Darity’s points.

[@kevinboone2178]

@@muffdiver240 Don't be silly...there's no conflict-of-interest. But for your circular logic, a White person can't advocate for another White person because he's a White person. It makes NO SENSE, Muffin.

Charter schools. School vouchers

[@timothymoore6341]

That will not close the racial wealth gap alone, cash, land, free college education, protected class status, tax free for 100 years, etc.
