Can you share your statistics? Author claims there is data to prove his point but doesn’t include it either.

All the statistics. Maybe start by googling the replication crisis.

Yes I’m familiar. The inability to replicate findings. With faulty data, tests, experiments I’m especially skeptical of most of the BS posted on blogs. Excuse me for not trusting “all the statistics”

Well, there is a ton of statistics. If any of it showed clear signs of systemic racism, you could just post it and say, here it is! Usually it gets debunked -- weak-ass research that doesn't replicate being one category -- those addressed by controlling for some obvious variables another.

The thing is, it's pretty easy to back claims that racism happens in the small, because it's true.

But "systemic racism" is a different claim than that.

Great I’ll look out for those statistics from you. Also easy to back claims that racism doesn’t happen.
