The race was a great example of how unfair life and the American Dream actually is.

Once some of the kids got closer to the end, the ones still at the start got a little uncomfortable. The guy who ran that still says they can race to win, basically saying they can jump back up in their future and be able to be with everyone else depending on the question.]]> 2019-04-12 15:51:39 UTC https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/cc4y2h68xsea/wish/351208801 https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/cc4y2h68xsea/wish/351208873 The fact that you don't see any white rich people in the videos.
Also the way they act is as if they are the boss of everything.]]> 2019-04-12 15:51:49 UTC https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/cc4y2h68xsea/wish/351208873 https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/cc4y2h68xsea/wish/351208876 I found the video about distribution of wealth with the percentages and all to be really eye opening and kind of shocking/saddening. I knew already about the whole idea but having a visual made me more aware of how bad things are. The last video with the race made me feel the same way: shocked/sad]]> 2019-04-12 15:51:49 UTC https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/cc4y2h68xsea/wish/351208876 https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/cc4y2h68xsea/wish/351208881 The video of the 100 dollar bill race made me think of my inner city friends and their drug activity in Indiana. Many of them have little to no privilege, don't know where their next meal will come from, their parents cant afford to buy them nice clothes. These things have caused many of them to resort to selling drugs while someone with privilege would never even think of doing that.]]> 2019-04-12 15:51:50 UTC https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/cc4y2h68xsea/wish/351208881 https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/cc4y2h68xsea/wish/351208887 The wealthy often look at the poor as moochers, or people who don't want to work. Thy view them as less. And the video displaying the wealth is an eye-opener]]> 2019-04-12 15:51:51 UTC https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/cc4y2h68xsea/wish/351208887 https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/cc4y2h68xsea/wish/351208934 Why do most people in the Us seem to want an try to remove themselves from other different types of social classes in the Us other to their own?

The announcer decided to ask questions in order to find out who was privileged or had wealth. There was a noticeable trend between the privileged and non privileged.]]> 2019-04-12 15:52:01 UTC https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/cc4y2h68xsea/wish/351208953 https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/cc4y2h68xsea/wish/351208987 The American Dream is based on a wealth that most Americans will never achieve]]> 2019-04-12 15:52:05 UTC https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/cc4y2h68xsea/wish/351208987 https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/cc4y2h68xsea/wish/351209091 The last video really made me think about how many kids grow up without anyone there to help them along the way of life. ]]> 2019-04-12 15:52:21 UTC https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/cc4y2h68xsea/wish/351209091 https://padlet.com/mcdougallj/cc4y2h68xsea/wish/351209103 The American Dream is made up of wealth. Old money and new money.
