America is the Land of Equal Opportunity reading
- answer-Whites most often think racism isn't an issue, compared to blacks who
overwhelmingly recognize it as an issue.
Whites are less willing to live in a diverse neighborhood, and thus housing
discrimination from all white exclusive neighborhoods occurs.
Housing discrimination also occurs because realtors won't show minorities
particular houses, or will make them feel unwelcome.
Linguistic profiling- identifying and then judging someone's race based on the
sound of their voice.
Minorities are hesitant to move to all white neighborhoods out of fear of being
ostracized.
wealth gap from whites to minorities is even greater than income gap- this is a
result of living in higher valued homes.
Children's books- most telling sign of racial inequality.
Commercials- whites are in commercials buying luxury items, while minorities, if
they are in a commercial, is usually buying fast food, sports equipment, or weight
loss aids.
Army and racial integration
- answer-Rank is so highly valued in the Army, that race is almost insignificant.
One is promoted solely based on their skills, and this is reinforced by the idea that
one's rank can oftentimes be a matter of life or death in battle based on who is in
charge, racism is eliminated in rank and promotions out of fear that an inadequate
white officer receiving a promotion based on race will endanger lives. The Army
also pays for college education which ensures smart and capable people enlist, and
also offers educational opportunities to minorities they may have never had before.
Goal system, not quota. Basic training eliminates any advantages based on race,
and focuses solely on how one performs, and as such it is oftentimes the first
instance in which minorities can outshine their white peers.

Covert Color War reading
- answer-Blacks and other minorities are subject to everyday instances of racism,
being mistaken for a valet, being pulled over frequently, people ask them how they
can afford the things they have, or when shopping with them they steer them to
cheaper goods.
"It doesn't matter what I do, I don't fit their definition of someone who can be equal
to them"
Criticism of the Davis-Moore thesis
- answer-Some suggest, rightfully so, that the salaries of occupations far outweigh
their benefit to society. They also call to attention that many highly important,
maybe even the most important occupations such as garbage collectors and
teachers, are not adequately compensated for their contribution to society. finally,
there's the notion that the gap in income leads to a discrepancy in wealth and
power. This power then allows people to set their own salaries, for example, CEOs
set their own salaries exceptionally high, but this doesn't mean they contribute
much, if anything to society.
Davis-Moore thesis
- answer-Income inequality is actually beneficial to society. The high salaries and
social rewards (people like doctors more than electricians) ensure that there will
always be talented people willing to perform these jobs that are important in
society.
Educational system reinforces rather than reduces inequality..
- answer-The best, richest, predominantly white and highest achieving schools are
consistently given financial support, when they really don't need it. These schools
also attract the best teachers, have the newest books and technology, and offer the
most difficult classes. Students in these schools are taught to be inquisitive and
ambition, and their education raises them from their natural position of privilege to
even more privilege.
