As a black woman I was not raised with people mentioning perspectives like Ben. And I can say this really opened my mind. I notice alot of times when people say things are about race that there is nothing to back it. Or often times the situation seems to be more about qualifications, culture and socio economic status than race. What I learned is that the lack of details can often distort the picture.

im a white man who grew up in a low income area, surrounded by a lot of black people. i was raised with the same ideology as a lot of the people around me. the government is racist, sexist and wants the low class to burn BUT when i learned smaller things that made sense i would be hated on by people in my community or they would give me a reason that is so illogical that it doesnt make sense. for example, me and a group (my brother and his friends) were talking about white on black crimes and they kept on saying that white people murder black people way too much and that most deaths for black people are because of white people, i pointed out that according to the FBI data its more likely that black people commit homicides then white people, and most homicides and manslaughter charges are intraracial meaning the victim and the killer are the same race. even though this is completely true they did not believe it and even went as far as to say that the government is lying to make black people look bad, even after i mentioned that the FBI data shows that in all crimes white people statistically do it more except for three which is homicide, burglary and gambling and still they didnt believe a word i said. i learned that, like you said, a lack of details can distort the picture, but sometimes people dont want to see the details and only want to see the picture they want. no matter what you tell them, some people wont listen and only few it one way and wont change, and sadly because of this nothing will change.

Except they don't slay anything because there is no beast to begin with , and all the achievements they claim to bring are nothing more than bribes payed to specific categories in order to keep their support.

That I believed that white people do not benefit from a system that is solely meant to benefit them in today’s society. I said that we should not raise black children to see white people as villains bc that creates a victim hood that predetermines success. He said that my opinion was a disgrace to black people, likened it as if I were saying black people should “stop complaining”, and called it cowardly. I’m a black woman.

I don't care if people call it "complaining" or "whining" or whatever - call it out & examine it. I also think it is important to teach the historical trauma of enslavement in America so that we do not perpetuate it, and thereby, creating a generation of victors NOT victims. I do not think there is current systems of racism and privilege that exist today though. I think black people have privilege too (affirmative action, college money, etc). If anything, the current system benefits the rich and/or the educated, which could be a whole slew of races. I agree with you 100% on everything else though.

Applicable Apple I’ve recently asked a Social Justice professor about the Ivy League admissions scandal-that Asian students are subject to higher standards than their White counterparts. I asked this because I was genuinely curious as to how White Privilege would play into Asian applicants being penalized over Whites, from the Social Justice standpoint. She kept on saying Asians have been used by alt-rights and Neo Nazis as an excuse to justify racism. When I told her that didn’t seem to address my question directly, she got frustrated and started to tell me that: (a) Asians were newcomers that have not experienced racism in the US; and (b) they are over-represented anyway, so their enrollment needs to be capped. WHOA!!!!!!!!! First, (a) is factually incorrect, but she hadn’t even heard of the railroad workers or the Chinese Exclusion Act...when she is a self-proclaimed civil rights champion. She *was* aware of the Japanese American internment but, instead of developing a meaningful dialogue, she immediately asked if I was aware of the cruel things the Japanese (not Japanese American, of course!) government had done prior to that. Seriously. I didn’t realize Social Justice was big on scapegoating. Second, I pointed out to her (b) sounded incompatible with the Social Justice framework-to present hurdles to make things harder for people of color, under the entire premise of White Privilege. Her response? “Asians aren’t generally considered people of color because, unlike Blacks and Latinos, they chose to come to the US.” She added that I needed to do my homework and learn history before asking stupid questions. LESSON: Asians are VERY INCONVENIENT to Social Justice Worriers because Asian success exposes the fundamental flaws in their premise of White Privilege.

In my lifetime, I hope to see more black people taking responsibility for themselves and their condition. My dad (who is black) was a veteran, a senior software engineer and he owned a school where he taught others how to code in the early 2000s. He worked extremely hard to keep us out of poverty and as a result, I was able to go to expensive private schools and grow up in upper middle class suburbs. My friends and teachers were mostly white and only ever treated me with love, care and respect. The white people who I know (and there are many) judge by character, NOT by color. After “growing up” in white America I have a completely different perspective than most. My dad taught me the importance of accountability.

I was asked to spearhead a report about why so many juveniles in detention were black. After two years of research...it came down to bias. One story stood out to explain what was happening. Police officer told us if two kids were playing baseball in a field and accidently broke someone's window...and police take both kids to the police station.... Parents are called. White kids parents show up...take the kid home, charges are likely dropped. Black kids parents don't show up to take their kid home. WHY? Because it was the policy the the police to run background checks on any minority that entered the police station...even f they just stopped to ask for directions! Why did the police discriminate in this way...? Because they knew minorities are more impoverished and were more likely to have outstanding warrants. So, because the parents fear the police (with good reason) what happens to the child whose parents would not pick him up? He goes to detention...sometimes for months!!!! How does that impact his thinking about the world? Good for you that your dad worked so hard....but it does not deny that systemic racism exists.

I'm sorry to hear that. I have dutch-german and Czechoslovakian family that struggled coming to America. Thought not as much as my Italian family did. My great great nonna lost two children to discrimination of communists (which they were not). One child lost a hand at a young age working in a factory. She did have too many kids lol (7 came over with them, 1 when they were here). They were immensely poor and did not expect it to be as bad as it was. All the kids had to work from a young age. The ones who could go to elementary school did but only one boy graduated high school. The others (died .. or) had to work. My great nonna saw a better economy during her prime but she and my polish great grandpa were fearful after what they grew up in so they had only one child. At least we're able to afford a small house before he lost his hearing to factory work and my great nonna lost him to pneumonia in their early 70s. She worked until she was 78 and was caretaker for me most of my youth until she died at age 90. There were no handouts for us. Nor for my paternal side. It was about working hard to hope you can pass your "wealth" down the line. For my paternal side they were less discriminated for sure but it was not easy and they were responsible people. Still along the way we have two generations later of many bad choices and still no silver spoon for being white. People forget how the vast majority of all people including white are lower class if not in poverty.

I do wish Ben would have addressed incarceration differences. As a liberal person, one argument I've always found powerful for systemic racism is precisely this issue. With a quick Google, landed on the ALCU's website that says "Marijuana use is roughly equal among Blacks and whites, yet Blacks are 3.73 times as likely to be arrested for marijuana possession." Perhaps one can explain this all away that in denser, urban areas, more arrests will happen so if more black people live in this area than white people, that's what causes it. That's still a gigantic problem related to race. If you want to say, like Bernie did, that it's really all a class problem and racism can basically be reduced to that, fine. But to me at most they seem incredibly wrapped up together. Because then that would lead people's perceptions to assume black people in general are poorer, and therefore likelier to be criminals, etc. and that would spill out to society's judgments in general.

There are a lot of details missing in those stats to draw any conclusions. First, are the use stats self-reported…have they checked for self reporting bias? Are these arrests just for possession or incidental possession charges in association with arrests for other crimes and/or possession of additional types of drugs? We already know there’s a crime rate disparity. Or perhaps it’s a behavior/visibility thing. It’s harder to get caught for possession when you smoke in a private residence and your drugs remain hidden than if you are out in public or in a car. Or a police presence thing. If people in your neighborhood are committing a lot of crime, maybe there is more police presence to get caught for petty crimes. Or a geographic thing- southeastern states with higher black populations probably have stricter drug laws than western states. Does “possession” exclude “possession with intent to sell” because there are reported disparities in the rate of drug dealing. Of course it is absurd the government is even meddling with the sale and possession of herbs and drug laws do have racist roots, but that doesn’t mean these modern stats are evidence of systemic racism.

Most of my Hispanic friends dropped out of school and had babies when they were still teenagers. My point is, we all have the ability to make choices. I’m not rich by any means, but I feel successful. I have cousins in law enforcement, others who are professionals in different fields, and the ones who aren’t have moderately well earning jobs. All of our parents were or are poor agriculture workers, so where is this systemic racism?

there is no systemic racism. the media and the liberal leaders saw blacks as a perfect way to be the "scapegoat" and made up the myth of systemic racism to cause outrage and violence all during election year. they didnt use asians, hispanic, and native Americans, although all of those minorities went through a level of racism and oppression but those minorities seem to be getting successful and they don't play the victim mentality.

Hello Ben I'm a 16 year old Indian male living in Nebraska. I completely agree with you about the neglect of possible confounding variables in the studies the video used to explain systemic racism and that they were completely blown out of proportion. I would want nothing more than racism to be a thing of the past but unfortunately in the case of my friends and I it's not that simple. As an Indian, at school I'm constantly called "curry muncher/lover" or "call scammer." It may seem like a small issue on the outside but deep down it hurts that my family and I's culture is ridiculed for no reason. All I would like is to receive the same cultural respect I give to everyone around me.

Maybe, "African American" defines the difference with 'ease of conscience' for the speaker. So, isn't that a bit of pre-judgement going on in that persons head right there. Look, in my humble opinion, the right way to define people is simply to say 'Americans' and disregard race. But society isn't ready. Just look at Election Polls, they have to cut the pie to tell you how many black, white or asians voted. Go fill out a job application, they ask race and want to cut the pie to how they think. And, here's another one, employers can now ask you if you are under 40, just the same as asking if your are over 18. Congressional Law changes this nonsense. But I don't even hear talk of this! Because our ancestors voted in stupidity decades and decades ago, we live with this stupidity still. Tearing down statues won't fix it, we need to stop asking Americans to define themselves into compartments for the stupid Laws they want to label us with based on the color of our skin.

The problem with that video is that they started off assuming the neighborhoods are all white or all black.

It is also assuming that the poor black people has no access to better jobs just up the road from there. I live in a mixed neighborhood with middle class blacks, including one who paid cash for his home just across the road. He has his own business, drives nice cars and trucks and the other black neighbors are also driving very nice cars, equal to or better than the one I'm driving. It is also assuming that the reason the white boy lives in a better neighborhood is because he is racist, not because his father and mother just simply did better like my black neighbors have done. Too many assumptions based on very weak evidence.

However, growing up we ended up back out there quite a few times, until I started 6th grade where we stayed in Baltimore County in an apartment for 5 years. If I brought home all A's and one B, I was never praised. My dad would ask, "What happened with the B?" I was told that we had to go to college and that they also (my parents) were not going to pay for it. Neither one of my parents are college graduates. My parents were not wealthy by any means. My dad waited 2 years to get in at one company and has been there most of my life. My parents bought their first home when I was in 11th grade. My brother received two nominations (very rare) to the United States Naval Academy. I went into the Army, finished my degree, and am now a Senior Network Engineer. My sister is a stay at home mom. My parents pushed excellence and accepted nothing less. They had their struggles and sought to make sure things were better for us. Did they teach us about our past history? You betcha! Did we hear words of caution? Yup! But we were also taught to not make race the first thing we see. We are all God's children. Learn from your past.....don't live in it!

Or the statistical data that blacks are least likely to be approved for home loans or hired due to their names on job applications for having african/black sounding name? Or is it the general notion that systemic racism exists with solid data collected by many sources (Multiple University research groups such as Washington, Monmouth. US data sources such as the Federal Reserve and FBI gov too). There may be fear of having people know the existence of systemic racism, but a different fear also exist under that notion. Fear that, in knowing this as a minority (particular when you're black), there's still that chance of being denied the American dream of financial stability regardless of how hard you worked for it. The system works against you from the moment you're born into poverty.

I spent several years on a school board. In my opinion, a massive problem in educational success and opportunities is parents. Try and hold a kid accountable for his academic progress and you get angry mom in yelling that the teacher can't teach her boy and that the school is racist. Ask the parents to help their kids, they loudly tell you it's your job to teach their kid and it's not their job to help. Try and discipline a kid for anything, and you get threatened with a lawsuit. It's a mess.

The fact that NO ONE talks about ALL THE OTHERS and the fact that most are either still treated that way, treated in some variation or were only started to be treated right AFTER black Americans got their freedom, that says alot. Maybe YOU need to open an ACTUAL history book instead of believing what modern media, "woke", or victimhood mentalities that is shoved down people's throats.

As an asian who also used to use that argument a lot, i want to bring up the model minority myth! Yes, there are a lot of asians who have worked crazy hard and have changed their circumstances. But a part of that was that we were "allowed" to by the people more privileged than us because they wanted to make an example out of asians. Culturally, we're a lot more quiet and well behaved, so we've been propped up as a group to be used as a weapon against those who fight back. "Asians are the perfect example of what hard work and dedication will get you," yes, but if and only if it's advantageous for the more privileged to let them get anywhere in the first place.

If anything they tried to make a poor example out of asians in history, but we worked hard and grinded our success into existence. We're culturally more quiet because were told not to complain or say anything because it is our duties to work harder and get whatever it is done.

If it is a "mixed" neighborhood then it isn't a black neighborhood. Flawed logic. There are plenty of poor white neighborhoods. Blacks are economically behind due to slavery. They didn't manage to even make it to middle class until they were allowed to work better jobs for proper wages and join the military in the early 21st century. They are basically playing catch up.
