Race and gender matter for representation

[PartyHeart]

have no idea but presumably females

is there some point you are trying to get at?

You said race and gender don't matter in representation, disagreeing with article. You then said what matters is money. The questions I posed to you were an attempt to get you to see how the amount of money you have is directly effected by your race and gender (it has proven time and time again to be correlated with the race and gender gaps). So your initial point that race and gender don't matter, is wholly inaccurate.

but i wasnt disputing the lack of representation, i was disputing an analysis based on race and gender, the analysis should be based on money

going down the path the article is suggesting is just a recipe on begging white people, its not recipe for independent black economic power, that is why i dismiss it

Understood and I don't disagree with what you've just said here. More than likely I think the author of the study took what you're saying about the disadvantages of being economically marginalized (they mention a lot about wealth and class) a step further and related it to race and gender.

Within adult Black people, who has the least wealth, men or women?

Both have low wealth and representation and they're both the same group. So who cares? Plus, black women likely only make less money because they work in crappier fields.

i know what they were doing and i think its a waste of time, if somebody isnt talking about economic development they arent saying anything, its just a sideshow
