Access to schools with adequate funding.
You see, here in America schools are funded by property taxes which are based on the assessed value of the housing.
Obviously, in ghettos and run-down neighborhoods, that means that the school disctricts there have smaller budgets (due to lower property values), and usually (because they are largely apartments rather than single-dwelling homes) a higher population of students to serve.
More students/less dollars = lower educational opportunities.
And because minorities are more likely to be poor, they are more often found in ghettos.
It's really not that hard to understand.
