    I wholeheartedly agree that minorities are often at a disadvantage in our society, and that there is a correlation between race and socioeconomic status in the USA. I think that if true equality is to be achieved, we need to stop separating people (at least in important processes like legal proceedings, college admissions, etc.) by their race at all. It sets a bad precedent, and I hope for a future where no race has any connotation with any socioeconomic class.

      I appreciate your thoughtful response and for taking the time to write it.

      I don’t fully share your optimism, but it’s great this conversation didn’t devolve into a shouting match just because we are at odds.
