Misunderstandings about the causes of the wealth gap: One of the most common misconceptions is that the racial wealth gap is primarily due to the inferiority or justification of one race over another. other race.

This is an idea worth spreading and a much-needed conversation right now. Thank you, Renee, for your passion, knowledge, and leadership. Let's close the gap in this lifetime.
Renee - this is so on point! I especially appreciate the “invest in yourself” tip! No one hands us anything. It’s up to us! This can be a concerted approach to closing the wage gap.
Great work Renee- a clear and powerful discussion about all the aspects that contribute to the racial wealth gap, and hold us back from the promise of what our country can and should be.
One way to decrease the wealth gap is for the more productive folks to waste their money in ways that are similar to the ways that less productive people waste their money
Renee, like you said, “Let’s Disrupt the Status Quo”. The whole world would benefit if the racial wealth gap didn’t exist. Thank you for your inspiring message.
There is great variation in the financial situation of individuals regardless of their race. Some people of the same race may be rich while another person of the same race may face poverty.
Some people misunderstand the social and economic aspects of the racial wealth gap, which can lead to exclusion and discrimination of people of different races. This causes division and social injustice.
Baker's speech was an important reminder of the importance of addressing the racial wealth gap. She argues that discrimination and lack of opportunity are the main causes of this problem, and we need to address these causes if we want to create real change.
Wow! Amazing presentation, Renee. Your ideas were empowering and your heartfelt delivery was moving. I kept feeling like yes, we can do this and everyone benefits. Thank you for sharing your insightful wisdom and brilliance. Very inspiring!👏🏼
The racial wealth gap is a complex problem with many causes, including a history of racism, the criminal justice system, and inequitable economic policies.
Renée Baker's TEDx talk can provide insight into the factors that influence the racial wealth gap and promote understanding and action to address these inequities.
Equity and ownership go hand in hand with capitalism. Strengthening those on the fringes helps us all! Thank you for helping us understand this basic tenet of our U.S. economy!
It’s up to individuals to take charge of their own life. Doesn’t matter what race you are. If you have the will to make something happen then it will happen.
I disagree with the emphasis on closing various types of gaps. If this means some groups or individuals accelerate away from others, so be it. It is my understanding that we benefit greatly from the culture and technology which largely comes from those with Westen values and who have IQs over a 120. So I'm not okay diverting academic resources away from those that are cognitively gifted just so you can close gaps. Also, schools will naturally exacerbate inequities because individuals that are fast learners (high g) will accelerate away from the low g students. Schools don't need to close all the gaps. Don't throw all your money at the smart kids, and don't throw all your money at the slow ones either. It is especially important that you don't throw all your money at the students that are learning English as a second language. It is extremely important that we slow down immigration because they tax our academic resources with ESL programs and so forth, when the money could instead be spent on those that have a heritage and history living here legally. I'd hate for music, robotics, or archery classes to be diminished or eliminated so as to allow funding for lots of special ed and ESL courses.
Correlation does not = causation. Please say it with me, correlation does NOT = causation. What evidence does she provide that the wealth gap is caused by racism? Her argument is they are wealthy and we are not, thus they must have caused it.

Racism is an important cause, but it is not the only cause.Other factors such as education, employment and housing also play important roles.
Renée Baker's TEDx talk can provide insight into the factors that influence the racial wealth gap and promote understanding and action to address these inequities.
Although policies can help raise the living standards of the poor, inequality still exists because assets are mainly concentrated among the wealthy.
May all being be healthy, be well, be free!

With racism and sexism knowing your worth doesn't necessarily work in decreasing the wealth gap

The economy is unstable, so poverty affects not only rural and remote areas but also in urban areas. This should be a long-term solution.
It was painful trying to watch this video. Way too rehearsed!
