Growing up in a city like Detroit is really hard. But when you grow up seeing that you yourself can not personally succeed in life like any other white person can (not trying to sound racist) but it is not fair. If you would please watch the video in this link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vX_Vzl-r8NY this video will change the way your think of life. My father has always told us that life is just a race between blacks and whites and this video proves what he was saying is true. Even after watching this video multiple times in 2 days it still surprises me when it says what is holding us (blacks) back from a fair life as compared to the whites. Not to be racist but this video makes it look like white are still trying to pull the fast one over us blacks. Seeing that slavery ended many years ago, blacks are still being held back from a successful and prosperous life by many things like lower education, unemployment and other things that the video talks about. And even when Blacks think that they are catching up in the "race" they are not. I really would advise everyone of every race to watch the video. Because I did not believe in inequality until I watched this video. But this video made me feel mad and a little upset when it was all over. Professor Leeper I would suggest showing this in class tomorrow only this is a well thought out film and it needs to be shown.
