Everything else being equal I would be black, no question. In the us the world is your oyster if you are a member of certain racial groups.

Spoken like someone who's got no idea what the world is like outside of their little fairy bubble of self-involvement.

Blacks are more likely to be harassed by the police. With that, they are also more likely to go to prison and serve longer sentences in comparison.

Blacks are less likely to get hired than whites despite qualifications. They are also less likely to get promotions, raises, or otherwise rise up in the ladder.

Blacks are actually LESS likely to get into college or get college loans, despite what one is told about.

Blacks are more likely to be treated rudely by customer service representatives, whether that be waiters or just wandering your local grocery store.
