People keep confusing socioeconomic problems with either racial or cultural problems so I felt the need to make this thread.
There is nothing about being born a certain race that makes you inferior or superior to anyone else either racially or culturally. The problem is a self perpetuating socioeconomic cycle. The first step in solving this problem is to recognize what the problem is
Racism in America (particularly but not limited to black and latino americans):
1) Lack of economic opportunities in minority neighborhoods creates a culture of crime.
2) People associate crime with race rather than socioeconomic conditions of minority neighborhoods.
3) Minorities get denied economic opportunities because they are associated with crime.
4) go back to step 1 and repeat
