@@enderdall5914 its not meant to be 100%, its discussing trends. And we are making progress, suburbs are starting to meaningfully diversify. Still though, in orange county there is only one family on my street that isn't white. I hope videos like these dont serve to make white ppl feel guilty, because we shouldnt. At least young people have no responsibility for the sins of the past. It is an important reminder however that not everything we have is from hard work and achievement, some of it was ruthlessly stolen from others and we need to be mindful of that before we adopt some kind of short sighted "bootstraps" philosophy that does nothing to help the disadvantaged. In terms of reparations, i think the government should allow direct reparations only in clear-cut cases: my grandfather had his land unlawfully stolen, he has 13 direct descendants, the land is worth X amount today, we need to either be given our land back or paid what it is worth, with some modest interest. For the majority of people with no such clear cut case, reparations should be in the form of community investment and affirmative action, things that reduce inequality in general.

What Adam says there at the end is important. To Mr. Whitey McHomeowner: it's not that you're racist for enjoying benefits of history benefiting white, you just need to be aware of it and act and vote accordingly. It's not your fault, until you try to propagate and expand the advantages you already have at the expense of others.

Government and business budget cuts have taken away the jobs that gave our parents the money they used to buy their houses, so we are not making the money they made, no matter how hard we work. So in the future, white people are going to suffer from poverty.

Betelgeuse So where did Asian privilege come from? Because most asians living in the US are recent immigrants who arrived with nothing, yet per capita they are better off by every metric compared to white people.

@mightza3781 6 жыл бұрын

Asians were still majorly disadvantaged until the 1970's, by then immigration laws were changed to allow more educated Asians into the country and they were touted as the model minority, so they had it better than some other minorities. Asians are per capita better off than white people, but that is due to higher rates of college attainment. An Asian with an advanced degree still earns 5% less than someone white with the same degree. Asians are still underrepresented in upper management at companies.

I've been saying for decades that the way we fund our schools is inherently racist and stupid. The school system should have been federalized years ago with a standard amount of funding per child given to each school throughout the nation. If we fail to educate all our children then we fail as a nation. People always scream that a woman might be aborting a child that could cure cancer, but if we fail to educate the children that are here then the child who could have cured cancer might have been born a thousand times but never recived the right education to do so.

@diamantedante 6 жыл бұрын

Ok, then you'll cut the average amount expended on non-asian minorities. Currently, we spend 2% more per pupil on black and pre-columbian students. As for federalizing education, it's not an enumerated power of the national government per the Constitution, even though publicly-provided school predates the revolution. State constitutions contain the free education provisions, and an Amendment to federalize the process would be opposed by left, right, coastal, mountain, and midwest communities alike. Pretty much only white socialists want a top-down federalized education system.

@Revrev84 6 жыл бұрын

Dante Diamante I'm well aware of the fact that as an enumerated power of the federal government it would require a constitutional amendment. However when you state that 2% more goes to minority students, what mean is that currently 2% more of federal aid goes to minority students. The majority of school are funded through real estate taxes which means that significantly less overall money is going to minority students. As for being a white socialist you got that all wrong, I'm an African American with Libertarian leanings and actually came to my understanding of this social injustice through my studies of Thurgoode Marshall and the years of work he did to end segregation in schools. Ultimately even a federalized school system wouldn't completely fix the issues involved in our education but it would be a step in the right direction and one that many on the Right would support as it would greatly decrease the amount of employees they have to bring in from overseas.

@lizzytheowl577 6 жыл бұрын

datonz This is probably because from the beginning a lot of black people have lived in the South. After the slaves were freed black people didn't really have anything so they couldn't move up to the North (en masse). Then after that it's generational issues where parents had little to no money to pass on so it took longer to become successful. It doesn't mean the South is less racist, it just means that they have better integration because they were kinda forced to.

@TheShowThatSUX 6 жыл бұрын

+lizzy the owl, actually, you want to look at what the TRUE HISTORY is there. Many black people did move, and the NORTH FREAKED OUT. NYC unions lobbied to have anti-black laws to protect them self from black labor. Many northern cities still show the almost parties to this day. Northerners very much were more racist expecting the blacks to stay in the south where they belonged as it were. Don't get me wrong the south had bigotry and a 2 level system, but the north for a time as the migration started was so anti-black they wanted no black at all. What is truly disturbing on that front is in the south when you have that one guy in the neighborhood who is, well, a bigot: the neighborhood revels in making the bigot uncomfortable. Block parties and what not become the norm the cops and code look the other way no matter how many minor infractions you are breaking making the bigot cringe once they figure out what is going on Not so much up north. No up north the bigot can use cops and code to enforce bigotry and what not.

Face it you're just brain washed and I bet that 5 years ago you didn't think about this kind of thing. In fact nobody did because its a trend right now. If you really want to help the ethnic minority then stop pandering to a belief system that deals in the victim role where they are able to blame all of there problems to something they can't actually change and start taking action in their own lives because here in America there is no reason to why you can't make a good living and if you choose not to believe that then you're the problem.

These ppl are still in control to this day and in every state in our country and the world. Controlling every pubic service as a joint effort to keep a certain group behind, you can't deny the rat race is unfair.

If the people in these "red" areas are primarily poor, they're the ones who can receive grants and aid to go to college at no cost so they can provide a better future for themselves.

Lexi K You are honestly slow. Instead of trying to blame them with such a general statement, think about why they're there and how they got there. If you honestly think it's that easy to stay in school when their academic system is under funded your stupid. The African American crisis is much more complex then that. Stop trivializing their struggle in this predominantly white country. If all blacks had to do is stay in school then the world would be a better place, but we both know that isn't the reason black people remain in the ghetto. Secondly you will never ever understand a person of colors struggle with Culture, Society and beliefs. This Country has almost always benefitted White people. Now I'm not saying America hasn't changed, I as a White person see that change. But we all have Rose colored lenses on, and project our experiences and idealogy without realizing that minorities are different from us socially, economically, and financially. This Country was built on European tradition and standards that has helped us get ahead of the rest.

There’s this thing called ‘individual accountability’ and Adam never discusses that when he “proves” why XYZ is oppressed (I.e. everyone faces obstacles in life & we have the equal opportunity to overcome them) And FYI, minorities make up .. a minority of the population - so no sxxx they aren’t gonna fill the suburbs. Some ppl in this world just don’t put in the work to become highly successful - and b’c of intercity culture, many of those ppl are minorities. Ironically, it’s YOU that wants systemic racism to exist, so you can feel morally superior about your *feelings*. Truthfully tho, modern systematic-racism has been disproven countless times with facts that are actually put into context - but that doesn’t fit your biased narrative, so I’m sure you ignore all of that.

Adam Ruins Everything Staff: I enjoyed this clip and wanted to use it in my classroom but realized that I should check the references on it before using it. I watched the clip carefully, paused and wrote down each cited reference, and then proceeded to verify them. Here is what I found. Ref. 1 @ 1:05: Alexis C. Madrigal, Atlantic, 22 May 2014. This article does not exist. Ref 2 @ 1:43: Janelle Bouie, Daily Beast, 13 March 2014. This articles does not exist. Ref 3 @ 2:23: Fresh Air, NPR, 14 May 2015. This radio program does not exist. There is, however, a similar story about home loans to whites but it lacks the crucial comment about "98%" of home loans going to whites. That "98%" comment was the primary message in the video. Ref 4 @ 3:53: Bruce Lambert, New York Times, 28 Dec 1997. This article does not exist. Ref 5 & 6 (which are the same article shown both at 4:36 & 5:44). At 4:36 the claim is made that "Black children are more segregated now since 1970" and at 5:44 the claim is made that black/latino home buyers have more difficulty getting bank loans than white home buyers. Unfortunately, the ONLY reference you provided that actually exists, makes NONE OF THOSE ABOVE STATEMENTS. This reference is completely unrelated to the statements they are supposed to support. Your research team is just awful and your fact checking system is equally as bad. If work like this was handed in to me by my students, then they would most certainly be accused of making up information. Why don't you guys just stick with reality instead of making up nonsense. There is enough racism in the world for you to report on without making any more up.

Doesnt matter that the housing market, the banks, credit unions, etc. all make circular rules that favor the already wealthy instead of those who need it most. A go getter attitude only works in a fair system where everyone is on a relatively even playing field with the ability to do whatever they want with the skills they have and only their initiative is the driving factor. This system is the problem because of how hard it is to even get out of poverty or maintain the middle class. The amount of money you have is the driving factor, not attitude. While I do agree attitude goes a long way in the short term, have you ever considered WHY so many people are apathetic to the system being clearly broken in the first place?

Also even in the 60's a moderately wealthy person of any race or ethnicity could live in the suburbs if they wanted to , it was the poor of any race ! they discriminated against and since even at the time the vast majority of the poor were white redlining was actually more discriminatory to white people than any others . Sadly Adam , you only seem to recognize discrimination against people who do not share your ethnicity or race no matter how apparent it is .
