poor whites how good they have it when they have been 1%ers their entire lives.

What exactly holds people of color back today other than their personal choices? At any school in America a black child can get a quality education if they take advantage of what is offered. If they do that they will be able to attend a four year college at no cost. If you graduate with a four year degree there is no reason you are not firmly in the middle class for the rest of your life.

Is it easier for some people than for others? Of course but that does not change the fact that opportunity is there for every single American. My mother was raised dirt poor yet she retired as a production manager of an international company. White privilege? No she worked her a$$ off and made herself invaluable to her company.
