To give a completely honest example..
Some one speaking British English will likely sound more educated than some one speaking Ebonics. This perception caries over to areas such as business. A person with the perception of being “educated” will likely have higher sales numbers compared to the latter.
Home life is critical. Asians for example as part of the culture place a very high standard on education (in general - based upon my own life knowledge) while other culture do not.
Those were just some points. I do believe there is an issue, but I heavily disagree that their is systemic racism due to skin color that is stopping those that are black (for example) from achieving greater financial success.
- loopz 6y agoFeel free to disagree :) The problem is the same, wether it's technically due to skin color or not though. Try migrating to another country, it's not easy to integrate, and can be very hit'n miss for anybody. It's much the same problems, and in need to be solving as to get more equal participation in society. There's also degrees, and no secret that discrimination/favourism is systematic in many countries simply due to tone of skin. It needs extra effort, or remain systematic and institutional. Marginalization simply cannot be afforded.
- raxxorrax 6y agoI don't think people should adapt to me if I emigrate to another country. I wouldn't want to be a problem case either. What we need is the same rules applying to everyone. For all skin colors. There is a huge barrier to get access to the judicial system because of very high lawyer fees. These are real problems, not the distribution of skin shades for certain occupation. On the contrary, that is pretty racist. I don't believe in systematic racism. I believe we are in a bad situation where people have economic incentives to keep it alive, as perverse as this sounds. Unequal treatment before the law cannot be afforded.
