Systems of wealth and income inequality in the service of white supremacy matured in the post-World War 2 era with the G.I. Bill and the FHA and VA home loan programs. Tens of millions of veterans and their families could take advantage of these wealth transferal programs. Black soldiers, and other people of color, were systematically denied access to this massive inter-generational transfer of wealth and income.

Beyond Color Blind: Why Race Still Matters

t’s simply easier to coast through life not worrying about others (other than those immediately associated with you). It takes effort to know those not like us, to study history and ask hard questions. This apathy could be masked by the thought, “Haven’t we all moved past racism now.”

What they do not teach you about anti-racism at American high school

What they do not teach you about anti-racism at American high school | Whiteness & White Privilege | Scoop.it

"America has a proud history of anti-racism – like the Declaration of Independence, abolitionists, Nat Turner, the Underground Railroad, Harriet Tubman, Frederick Douglass, John Brown, Abraham Lincoln, the civil war, the Gettysburg Address, Emancipation, the Radical Republicans, Reconstruction, Ida B. Wells, Thurgood Marshall, Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King, Jr, the civil rights movement, Malcolm X, the Black Panthers, Angela Davis and so much else.

But since 1890 it has been played down or lied about in American high school history books.

Why?
