- schools with more black students have more police officers than mental health professionals, meaning literal children are accustomed to being disciplined by law enforcement rather than receiving actual help - multiple empirical studies have shown how those with “black/foreign-sounding names” are less likely to receive employment despite same or greater qualifications - redlining, which is textbook systemic racism
There are police officers, because all stats show, that predominantly black schools have on average more gang and violent activity. I agree that they do also need mental health professionals, yet at the same time you cannot compare law enforcement to a mental health professional lol😂 and is it possible that people with foreign sounding names could also be non completely well versed in their English and employers also know this—which could impair their job or how they work with others?
