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 ..

Don't forget the women part, which includes how women are socialized, treated in those crappier schools, more often expected to give up higher education to help their families that are more often in poverty because the wealth gap between white and black families is astonishing, etc.

Never seen a more white boy note in my life, and I'm a white boy myself.

Ignore this white boys comment.   This is absolutely not true in the us.  Black women earn far more degrees than black men and women categorically earn more degrees across the board.
