Take your head out of the sand. We don't live in some utopian bubble where black kids and white kids have the exact same odds to be perceived as "smart" or "mean." We didn't 100 years ago. We didn't 50 years ago. We didn't 25 years ago. And we don't today. I'll say it again. Black kids are more likely to grow up in an environment that will instill in them characteristics where they will be perceived as "mean." White kids are more likely to grow up in an environment that will instill in them characteristics where they will be perceived as "smart."Is this somehow a foreign concept?
