Y’all realize it’s a wrap for affirmative action if they get a new conservative judge in, right?

[levitate]

We gotta get Trump the fukk out

Too late.

They control the Senate and there’s nothing we can do to stop the nomination/senate vote.

 

[TRY GOD]

So what who benefits the most. We still benefit. Stop throwing out the baby with the bath water. We need every ounce of help we can get. Brilliant black people get looked over for jobs all the time. You want even MORE to get overlooked? Holding out votes does not accomplish anything.



If you’re looking at population size, of course more of them are going to be in those positions. And we have to acknowledge that we’re not the only group who has suffered under white men. (Despite White women still getting a cut of what white men have through their fathers and husbands)

Y’all aren’t being realistic. You want to risk getting rid of an entire policy, because it als benefits others? That makes no sense. I’m not even going to debate this topic even further if you’re saying we can get rid of it, because other group also benefit. Let’s say it helps 10,000 Black people vs 20,000 white women. So what?? Those black people still need their jobs. Every little bit helps.

So your answer is that even though this doesn't benefit us as much as it does everyone else, and we get the least benefits from this policy, we should still go for it, because Crumbs are just as good?

That, and aca pre existing conditions which helps a lot of black folks. But hey lets roll back to the 60s. Need my racism in the open

This will be good for black people.

Black people haven't benefitted from affirmative action in 30 years.

White women, and other minorities groups benifit off it more then we do so..

White women are the biggest beneficiaries of affirmative action that's who it was made for. It wasn't made for us.

Only took you a few weeks ago to finally realize Trump gotta go?

Never said I wanted him to stay in the first place, always wanted him out

Was more of the mindset of not voting because they dont respect the black vote

 

[The_Sheff]

They about to toss out the ACA as well. This is gonna fukk over a lot of people when people cant stay on their parents insurance until they are 26 and an acceptable pre-existing conditions list gets drawn up and kicks a lot of people out.

You don’t need a McMansion to have a nice house breh

a couple people way to write off nice metro city neighborhoods where a lot of black people live. nikkas can’t stop moving to places like Gwinnett

Gwinnett is a neighborhood in ATL, that doesn't represent all of America. The median house cost in America is $220k+, we're not affording any home(en masse) if we're worth less than $4k. First time homeowner loans require either 3-5% down payment, the average ADOS doesn't have $6.6k laying around.

Maybe a couple ppl you know can, but collectively ADOS ppl can not afford "nice houses".



Black-White Jobless Gap Widens, Narrows Between Women and Men

This includes black immigrants, if you just count ADOS unemployment, it's very fathomable that 20-25% are currently unemployed

This graph is pre-covid and includes black immigrants, it's definitely lower if you remove non-ADOS and you factor covid.

We're not getting "nice houses" en masse

Please stop, these metrics dont mean black people cant currently get into nice homes. When they use the "wealth" metric what they mean is they take all your assets and then subtract all your debt. A black family that has enough money to afford to live in an expensive home can have plenty of money to pay that mortgage but the debt associated with the loan puts them into negative wealth. So a black doctor who just bought a home in a nice neighborhood is technically less wealthy than some toothless hillbilly who inherited a broke down trailer from his grandma.

Trump already said he dont want your black asses in his suburbs so now you about to see redlining come back, gerrymandering on a completely different level, etc....

Good maybe this will convince all big time black college athletes to attend HBCU's instead also. You gotta hit these schools at their biggest money maker which is athletics.

Breh what are you talking about..

Degreed and non degreed black folks benefit from affirmative action. Look at any government job and the amount of black folks that work there.

Look at defense contractors and the amount of black folks that work there (managers, engineers, directors, operators, material movers, mechanics, maintenance workers).

do you realize at one time lockheed martin was the number one hirer of black engineers and the number one hirer of HBCU graduates in technical fields.

These are all affirmative action jobs that black folks get.

 

[Robbie3000]

Black people definitely benefit from government jobs.

Most of the black money in the DMV area comes from government jobs. Speaking of the DMV, have you noticed how many black people work at the Department Of Motor Vehicles? Airports? Newark airport is full of black employees on every level.

You can’t talk sense to these fools.

Breh these folks on here are nuts. I have worked in DoD. Ain't nothing for a company to hire a entire graduating HBCU class in engineering or computer science starting out at 50k to 70k depending on the location.

Then if you work for a government contractor you see a bunch of black folks cause once someone gets in they are able to reach back to their alma mater and get other black folks hired. So you see hundreds and thousands of black folks in the field or even company depending on the location.

Hell I live in dallas and I would argue probably 10 to 15 percent of the professional/ technical (operators, inspectors, technicians, mechanics) black population out here works in DoD (thats degreed and non-degreed folks). Making anywhere from 35k to probably 300k depending on the field and job title.
