Whereas white males have significantly less disadvantages and negative representations compared to the black males because white males tend to keep their privilege. ]]> 2019-09-24 00:52:14 UTC https://padlet.com/rebekah_overfelt/w8z5dkk9hn5v/wish/388543968 aquanettat https://padlet.com/rebekah_overfelt/w8z5dkk9hn5v/wish/388544029 Historically speaking, black men are automatically destined to fail in life. Being born into money does not mean they will not suffer in society. Having money will allow certain access to certain situations, but it won't stop them from getting pulled over or put in the category of "dangerous". We also think the black man lacks knowledge in how to maintain money when born into it. ]]> 2019-09-24 00:52:28 UTC https://padlet.com/rebekah_overfelt/w8z5dkk9hn5v/wish/388544029 samantha_rodriguez1 https://padlet.com/rebekah_overfelt/w8z5dkk9hn5v/wish/388544145 Wealth connects to social status and so therefore if black men are unable to obtain similar amounts of wealth as white men then they will be unable to attain similar social status. ]]> 2019-09-24 00:53:06 UTC https://padlet.com/rebekah_overfelt/w8z5dkk9hn5v/wish/388544145 aortamond https://padlet.com/rebekah_overfelt/w8z5dkk9hn5v/wish/388544183  The article states "fundamental problem is class and not race, and clearly this study explodes that idea.” Since the foundation of the US, it has always been divided by what is race and not what a person can do]]> 2019-09-24 00:53:18 UTC https://padlet.com/rebekah_overfelt/w8z5dkk9hn5v/wish/388544183 ashperez85 https://padlet.com/rebekah_overfelt/w8z5dkk9hn5v/wish/388544215 This article talks about how african americans have historically been discriminated against educationally and because of this debt has accumulated and is still persistent today.
