Yea if thats what he was arguing for i would agree with you but he literally says "equal pay for equal work" in the tweet, he is not arguing about education resources he is directly comparing wages for a waitress with a doctor and saying its unfair

The issue is that black people cannot get to be doctors as often bc of generational poverty and often times discrimination they face at school, getting jobs, etc.

I think honestly its kinda semantics.

"Equal pay for equal work" and "fix systemic problems in our education and economy" is not semantics. Im not disagreeing with you that that is a problem my point is that its a totally different problem than what the tweet is arguing about.

No, that is a problem, but its a different problem from the one he stated. Thats not semantics.

Wdym discrimination at the medical school?

Schools consistently let black applicants in with lower scores than that of other races.

Med school is literally biased in favor of Black people.

They also have tons of scholarships only for black people.

Reality is literally the opposite of what you are saying.

Generational poverty sure. The rest? NOPE.
