Synopsis

This book gives a thick description on skin color discrimination. Africans and Native Americans were enslaved and oppressed based on biological variations in skin color. Black business owners who applied for Paycheck Protection Program loans received far less favorable treatment than white business owners. There has been evidence of in-group disparity in traffic tickets, with black and white police more likely to cite out-groups. Black and Hispanic men were much more likely to be killed by police than white men. Black defendants in Florida face far longer jail terms than white defendants of the same history.For third-degree felonies, white judges sentenced blacks to 20% more imprisonment than white judges, while black judges sentenced blacks more evenly. In school, white women face sexism, with darker skin graduating at a lower rate than lighter skin. Doctors behave differently with black and white patients, even though their medical records are statistically similar. Historically, there has been widespread and pervasive racial discrimination against African-Americans in the United States' housing and mortgage markets, as well as against black farmers. In comparison to blacks, government policies and incentives have made it easier for whites to become homeowners.According to a 2018 survey, housing market professionals held disparaging racial attitudes toward black and Latino individuals and communities. NBA players of color were 30% more likely to leave the league during any season than white players with comparable player statistics. According to a 2019 study, voters in predominantly black communities waited far longer at polling locations than voters in predominantly white neighborhoods.
