Income and wealth are better predictors of “privilege” than race though.
So one is using a worse indicator.
Using a mix of income and wealth over several years to me is an appropriate indicator and cannot be easily gamed.
The fact that Will Smiths kids get a better chance to get into college than a similar applicant from a first generation immigrant family from Vietnam shows how broken race as an indicator can be.
