Race and economic inequality

Centuries of policy—slavery, redlining, unequal schooling, employment discrimination—created wealth gaps that compound across generations, making current inequality partly inherited rather than earned. Understanding this structural history is essential for distinguishing individual financial success from systemic advantage and for recognizing why "hard work" produces different results for different people.
