The more I watch the more sad I feel. This heaviness and tiredness takes over. I know how challenging my life has been for me, as an impoverished white person- not having to live with such intense systemic racism.
Redlining and these other racist practices don't compute for me. I don't understnd why you would intentionally want a group of people to fail. Why you would want them to live in poverty, have poorly funded schools and keep them in poor neighborhoods, and not hire them due to the sound of thier name.
It makes me wonder if this is something that is a onscious thought to thse making deisions regarding hiring, or economic development. I surely hope it isn't...
