Many of our houses and apartment buildings and everything were built through this huge influx in the first half of the 20th century in housing that working people could afford. And then on top of that, something really unprecedented, which was the idea that there should be Mass Home Ownership. So the government made a system where we have this thing called a mortgage, right?

Where you could be a working person and just pay off something over time and own property that would be the basis for intergenerational wealth, right? That was all government planning and it was all based on the never substantiated assumption that black people would be too much of a credit risk.

Und so literally like the progressive FDR federal government drew maps of the entire country and surveyed them down to the block level for their racial and ethnic character and said the areas with a high Negro concentration, for example, do not lend in these areas. Levittown, something I think you're familiar with, right? Other. It's just one example. What is that?

Ja, die Sprache und die Tatsachen sagten, dass diese verkauft werden können oder verkauft werden können, nur für Menschen, die von der caucasischen Rasse sind. Keine Okta-Ruhe. Kann ich dir etwas sagen? Und du musst testen.

Das ist richtig. So that's example. And housing of course is very significant because that's how we build our wealth. That's how we have intergenerational wealth. That's a lot of why today, if you are a black college graduate, you have less wealth on average than a white high school dropout.

If you are a black college graduate, you may have a higher income, you may have a better job, right? You've done all the things, you've gone to college, but you will have less household wealth, like your assets, things to rely on, your home equity, stocks and bonds, etc., than a white high school dropout. And that's entirely history, history showing up in your wallet, right? But, you know, this...

Die Regierung hat die Wörter historisch ausgeschlossen, weil sie für Forschungsgründe zuständig war. Sie canceln die Geschichte, damit wir das nicht wissen, und wir zurückkehren zu einer priviligierten Wirtschaft, damit sie und Menschen wie sie die Einzigen sind, um zu wachsen. Und mein Punkt insgesamt ist, dass das... Not good for anyone. We need diversity in order to thrive.

We need economic, racial, gender diversity as a way to innovate. And we are simply, if everything they're trying to do goes through, and is maintained by the Supreme Court, I think that our country will economically, not just morally, but economically be shoved back a generation or two. We will lose our place at the top of the economic pyramid.

Ja, ich denke, es gibt zwei Wege, das zu tun. Einer ist, wenn man den Leuten einfach erinnert, dass ein System, in dem nur weiße Männer ermöglicht wurden, Top-Positionen zu halten, oder nicht sogar Top-Positionen, wie ein Maschinist, ein Produzent, ein Pilot, ein Fahrer, etc., was itself a form of affirmative action that diminished competition.

If you didn't have to compete with anyone but anyone who looked like you, and increasingly now the majority of the country nicht für verschiedene Gründe für diese Jobs zuständig ist. Das war seine eigene affirmative Action. Und dann sahen wir, als wir die Macht der Kompetenz entdeckt haben, sahen wir unsere Landesinnovation und Prosperität wirklich explodieren.
