Couldn’t agree more, discrimination is bad, but echoes of racism still reverberate throughout our system, ESPECIALLY the justice and educational system, which is why I target those areas most. The conviction rate is still much higher for black people, they are arrested without cause more often too. The near majority of people in prison are black, and while that merely means that black people commit more crimes, that does not penetrate to the heart of the issue. Black people have a higher crime rate because they’ve been more historically poor due to continuing and past discrimination and economic inequality, which directly translates to more crime. The institutional racism is very much real, but it’s more glaring depending on where you look. States like California and New York try to use affirmative action as a lazy counterbalance, which is why I don’t favor it, I merely view it as a method of equalizing the scales. Hiring based off of merit for SOME areas is misguided in understanding of racial bias in systems, and is practically guaranteed to backfire.
