Oh my god thank you, the people in my replies are making me feel crazy. The system itself needs a change, not a check to every single person

As someone from an area with a large quantity of impoverished black individuals, I promise that if they were handed a check the money would likely be abused and they would fall right back into the cycle. A lot of people in my community are drug addicts as well and if we hand them a check and say! Yeah go wild! That’s probably what’s going to happen.

“Providing programming” yes I’m sure that’s the answer to generations of discrimination and wealth destruction

Anonymous OP 13w

Yes absolutely it is. Creating programming surrounding education, finance literacy, community building, a resource center for those who are homeless (shelter, food, water), medical care (both psychological and physical) would be a beautiful start to helping people out of cyclical patterns and benefiting society as a whole

You act like those don’t already exist and are useless like lmao financial literacy programs. You think we’re not educated or community oriented lmao. You think there aren’t already programs for the homeless or Medicaid doesn’t exist. You don’t know us at all

Anonymous OP 13w

They barely exist and if they do they are not accessible to everyone. Putting government money towards those programs would boost them in a way that more people are benefiting from the programming. Financial literacy is not useless???? Unless mommy and daddy fill out your bank acct statements for you. Educational and career development programs are absolutely necessary as well. Homeless and medicaid solutions are not one-size-fits-all which is why targetting areas with heavy populations of black

Individuals could create more medical interventions that are specific to situations that are prevalent particularly in the lives of black people.

Additionally, community building is not just “hey I know my neighbor” it’s setting community expectations and navigating problems and finding solutions for specific communities which could helo any struggling group of people

Equality can only be gained be equalizing the pedestals. White people struggle less because for a large population of white people, these resources were historically easily accessible. The way to create equality is to begin to build and change the opportunities that are offered to POC
