Post-Reading Question Week 5


        In my opinion I don’t think this video is racist at all. “Shit white girls say…. To black girls” it’s true. Everything on this video what white girls say isn’t just to black girls they say it to everyone. No matter what the race is. I think she is trying to prove is her own race (black) says the same stuff what white girls say or any colored girls says. She’s just stating the facts.

       Racial inequality in the United States underlies a wide range of societal issues that affect the life chances of different groups disproportionately by race. In social science, racial inequality is typically analyzed as "imbalances in the distribution of power, economic resources, and opportunities. Racial inequalities have manifested in American society in ways ranging from racial disparities in wealth, poverty rates, housing patterns, educational opportunities, unemployment rates, and incarceration rates. Some claim that current racial inequalities in the U.S. have their roots in over 300 years of cultural, economic, physical, legal, and political discrimination based on race.

        Blacks and whites has been leveled, or is as close to being even as is practically possible.2 The increasing diversity of the nation's population and the success of many, but by no means all, immigrants are often interpreted as further proof that the continuing problems of African Americans are of their own making. Unfortunately, this misconception applies virtually across the board whether the discussion is employment, housing, education, or virtually any aspect of private or public life in the United States. Immigration is not the only factor, and may not be a particularly significant factor the extension of race beyond the binary of black and white has deflected attention away from the unique and unresolved problems of race African Americans.
