Isn't "[Race] is given extra help to own houses" the same as "[not-Race] is given no extra help to own houses"?

Isn't "[Race] is given extra help to own houses" the same as "[not-Race] is given no extra help to own houses"?
- lumost 6y agoOn average [Not-Race] has more wealth to afford houses, or home ownership is more common than [Race] in these programs. You do see anger when individuals perceive they can't afford homes, school, or other big ticket items and perceive that they aren't given help - but that isn't quite the same as denying people something.

Discriminating against people is denying them something, it's denying them a fair shot, fair treatment by the government. Regardless of their sex or skin colour they deserve fair opportunity.

How is that not denying them help? > On average [Not-Race] has more wealth to afford houses, or home ownership is more common than [Race] in these programs. So why not just have your aid program be based on wealth, rather than race?
