If you really want to get rid of disparities to the extent that you can, you need to 1) get rid of welfare, 2) implement school choice with tax$$ following the child to whatever school (public, private, religious) , 3) get rid of teachers unions. Then you need to wait a generation or more to let those BOPC kids establish themselves in careers and accumulate some wealth and then asses the situation.

You will see a diminished racial difference in wealth, IMHO (not going to disappear completely & shouldn’t by principle of Justice.

For years I'd read about Chicago's Urban Prep school. All grads were accepted in college. Just read an article to refresh my memory, apparently it was all bogus. I don't know how they chose the students, don't know what kind of remedial help was needed and not given. They also stated that a lot of students dropped out of university for financial reasons. That should never have happened. Those boys came from poverty, how are their families excepted to afford the tuitions? Just another joke.

Another example of Democrat racism, whether from ignorance or on purpose, doesn’t matter, they hurt the recipients of their’charity’.
