Even though your name's not Brian37, I applaud your stab at the questions. But your answers are too shallow. How does previous generational discrimination continue to have such a profound effect? I find it hard to believe your claim that banks would not have loaned money to a black couple during the housing boom when many banks weren't even interested in references and fiscal stability. I've never heard of any racial lending discrimination in the last 20 years or so. You do know that it is highly illegal, and that a black man that was racially discriminated against would get way more than the amount he was cheated out of borrowing. Can you point out any current examples of how this is occurring today?
You say that black dropout rates are caused by poverty, but if poverty is caused by high black dropout rates, then it is a circular argument.
For the circular system to exist, a third force must be in place, why are so many blacks poor and dropping out of school?
