being looked at funny/being followed at the mall =/= starving and drowning in debt
the overlap is obvious in many cases, of course, but which one is more straightforward and easy to solve?

Racism is not a moot subject. Economic inequality is tied in with race, gender, etc, especially in countries in North and South America. Addressing these issues is necessary to address economic and social equality.

One of reasons why certain Asian-American groups like Indians and Taiwanese do well in the US is because, like early German immigrants in the US, they stick to their own and avoided bigotry by doing so, which allowed them to perform well. Other groups try to integrate and fail because mainstream America is not interested in them. It's the same issue with gender. Women have equal rights on paper, but most people are not interested in seeing women excel.

I think he's secretly in love with Beyonce.

Honestly I stopped caring what he had to say after he said that Tyga was smart for 'getting in early' with Kylie, like how terrifying is it that this man is raising a baby daughter
like what kind of BS is this racism certainly hasn't ended and I doubt it ever will end.

Kanye is so sad. Watching his spiral is like witnessing a train wreck.

wtf? no it's definitely not. classism and racism have long histories and are separate issues. they overlap, and that's where the larger amount of black/hispanic/some other races i forgot probably poor people there are comes from, but it isn't entirely based on racism. if it was, european countries where races other than whites are less represented than in the US would have less classism, which isn't true at all. classism comes from ancient systems of nobles and rich people being viewed as superior and given superior rights that had nothing to do with race. serfs and slaves of the country's majority race were very common in those ancient times and for a long time afterwards. learn your history omg

He's so ignorant about racism it's scary, especially since he's a black man, and goes around spouting all this nonsense like its facts.

true

you think being looked at funny is the worst racism has to offer in america? how about lynchings, or police brutality?

and classism isn't about starting, or being poor, thats poverty, its about the stratification of society based on perception of wealth and culture
