I agree all of this talk about equity inequality and race and gender. completely betrayed the fact that the biggest predictor of societal issues is poverty.

I can’t think of any societal injustice that could not be undone simply by by floating opportunities opportunities to those in poverty.

That actually shows that helping poor people would help black the most. So why not do it?
