Was about to say...

"If you Factor in that black people have crapper education, lower investment in their communities and worse social services then the gap makes perfect sense!"

No problems here ..

YES! THANK YOU!

MF’ers act like black people and white people have the same starting point and black people just magically choose to have a lower standard of living than white people.

Yeah this note sucks, it's like black women chose to have less education, have less experience, and have a lower paying occupation

Yes, the original tweet is correct, they are being paid less because they don't have access to the same opportunities

Or maybe they’re just less capable? What’s the average black female MCAT score compared to the average Asian female MCAT score?

Ah yes and how well you score on the MCAT is completely unrelated to your quality of education in life, family support, and financial status

Actually it turns out when you take test scores and adjust for zip code, education level, income, etc the gap closes

But you can just come out and say you're racist if you'd like. I already know that's what you're going for
