I received a gift this morning that supports an argument I just had with my son. (thank you Mario Sellitti) When I told him he was a black man he had to work harder! He was raised that color doesnt matter everyone is equal but he has yet to realize in our house it doesnt but from the outside world his ass will be treated very differently! Having Second thoughts about this perfect bubble of a world we have made his reality. While there have been great strides in civil rights and many people of color have been able to reach pinnacles of success, discrimination still exists. In this Princeton study for example, they found that white ex-cons were more likely to get a job than a black man with no criminal record: princeton.edu/~pager/ASR_pager_etal09.pdf
