"50% (+/-) of funding for Schools, is dependent on taxes.
So a community composed of low income, very low income, no income people, the taxes are very low. A community composed of middle income, high income, very high income people, the taxes collected, is significantly higher.
So the, 'funding', (+/- 50%), is dependent on who is in the district."
Well that's the issue. This isn't historically true. The percentage isn't based, historically, on income values per district. Less money percentage wise was, historically, allocated towards Black Communities in certain areas in certain States at certain times. Many, many FOIA documents prove this, which is why it isn't even debated anymore as the evidence is overwhelming.
Arguing this does nothing anyway. The point is one is not forced to become a criminal because they didn't have equal financial allocation of tax dollars in public education, whether you think Black Communities received equal financial support or not. Also none of this makes criminals even if the funding was allocated to "people" and not "communities" or the associated components that make communities to include people among all things that are exclusive of people as a term or entity.
Systemic Racism does not create criminals whether you think Systemic Racism exists or not.
