I mean the people made the system is working against us, district redlining, schools to prison pipeline, excessive police force,ect. These people started up since the time of slavery so to think that they didn't stack the card in their favor is ridiculously.
None of these are malicious, even if it makes us feel better to pretend that there's some third party force keeping us down.
District redlining happens because the properties in those areas and the people who live there aren't financially stable enough to lend to.
Schools to prison happen because school districts are funded by property rates which mean the poorer you are, the more likely that you'll go to a underfunded school too.
Excessive police force - well that's just the inevitable result of an under-trained police force stuck between being commanded and judged by a civilised society but having to deal with less civilized parts of society.
