quote:The income gap between Black and White households has remained stubbornly persistent since 1960. Black families holding roughly 60 cents for every dollar of White family income, showing minimal long-term progress. While the gap narrowed between 1960 and 1980, it has largely stagnated or slightly widened over the last four decades.
Why is being a Black Owned Business still a thing?
Rant - Saw an article on KPLC. How do the people writing these articles not see how divisive this is? What does it matter your race if you have a business that provides a good product at a good price with good service?
I've seen there are also shop only black business days. Isn't that racist? Is your business so weak and unsuccessful that you would risk losing a huge customer base just to appease another base?
Even Amazon has notes on product pages that the business is minority owned. So that's supposed to make me buy your product?
I would hope in the 21st century that there are fewer of these narrow-viewed individuals out there.
In 1967, Black households had 58 cents for every dollar of White household income. By 1981, the median family income for Blacks was $13,266 compared to $23,517 for Whites.
In 2021, Black households had only 62 cents for every dollar of White household income.
Between 1970 and 2018, the absolute dollar difference in median income grew from roughly $23,700 to $33,000.
The wealth gap is significantly wider than the income gap. In 2019, Black Americans held only 18 cents for every dollar of wealth of non-Black Americans, up from 12 cents in 1962.
At the current rate of progress, it is estimated that it would take over 500 years for Black households to reach income parity with White households.

But you have. You just admitted you saw that it was reported. You just don't believe the source, even with no basis not to believe it.
No? No source that doesn't rely upon the hoax source?
Are y'all trolling, don't care about credibility, or are you just morons?

The same way we know about anything: it was reported by reliable individuals who confirmed the information is legitimate.

The school system literally released a statement about it. The picture is real.

I never claimed any such thing. Wow, the irony of you calling ANYONE else a moron.
quote:And that's why Ramona Bessinger claims the Pawtucket School Department issued a press release . . . "to keep the lid on it and not raise a fuss"?
Why would it want to? Best to keep the lid on it and not raise a fuss.
quote:
And likely, it's an official statement, not a press release. Even Ramona could have flubbed that technicality , and gotten it wrong. Stuff like that happens.
Ohhhhh. Sure, sure, sure. So when Ramona Bessinger created the fake press release, she should have created a fake official statement . . . and only to her. She really screwed up on that whole "FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE" language. She probably should have created a fake email.
Or maybe she should have created a fake tweet. No wait, that would be redundant.
She must have flubbed that technicality and gotten it wrong. Stuff like that happens. Morons are not very good at creating hoaxes . . . or defending them . . . or questioning them.

Accept the narrative, or be branded MORON!!
quote:No. There's no such thing as a press release issued to a single person. Even your quote disputes your moronic notion.
And not all 'press releases' are the same. it's likely more of an official statement, directly to her, not released to all local news agencies.

WOW, you're turning into a SUPER slueth and totally trusting the legacy media, the school district.
First, how did the Pawtucket School Department become a legacy media?
Second, how can anyone be trusting the school district if it has NOT said anything about a Moloch mural?
Third, if you are referring to the fake "press release" posted by Ramona Bessinger, aren't YOU the one who is relying on it?
Therse are simple questions, but you take as much time as you need to ponder them. While you're pondering:
Please provide an independent link to the story.

Items can be removed from websites, news paper articles, edited from video....
But keep acting like you've never known that to be the case - ever.
Do you truly believe that the Pawtucket School Department put out a press release just long enough for Romona Bessinger to copy and tweet it, and then removed every single trace of it?
That's what a moron believes.

the posted press release.
Why are you morons INSISTING in talking in circles?
Do you REALLY believe this is making some clever point ? Or that you'll end up being justified somehow?
Can you please provide an independent link to the press release?
Or do you always take confirmation of a hoax from the source of the hoax. That's what a moron does.

Again, in light of how hard school systems push their indoctrination over education, it's every bit as likely that was real.
You should consider not being a moron.

quote:And yet . . . according to your SINGLAR SOURCE, Ramona Bessinger, the Pawtucket School Department put out a press release.
School district isn't going to crow about a mural they had to paint over 20 yrs ago.
The 'source' did give a direct comment on this current matter. You can ( I assume) understand why they would rather not hype up a story that came and went from the early 2000's.
You can't declare it didn't happen.
So, the Pawtucket School Department allegedly is crowing about the mural. The Pawtucket School Department allegedly did hype up a story that came and went from the early 2000's.
Of course, the press release, intended for wide-spread circulation, cannot be found anywhere except Ramona Bessinger's tweets.
Wouldn't you just love to find an independent source for this story and throw it in my face?

quote:Are you an actual moron, or do you just play one on this board?
It did exist though. It's funny that you'd rush to "muh A.I." and claim it never happened rather than face the reality that it in fact DID happen.
An intelligent person (and this might be difficult for you, so just follow along with your finger pointing at the words), might question something so unlikely as a school permitting a mural of Moloch on its walls.
That same intelligent person (just keep pointing to the words as you read), might consider questioning the existence of such an unlikely mural in a world where AI is prevalent.
The intelligent person would look for confirmation that the purported picture exists. Upon finding that the ONLY source of the picture is one SINGLE tweet and retweets of the SINGLE tweet, one would rationally conclude that the picture is a hoax.
When confronted by a purported "press release" from the EXACT SAME SOURCE as the SINGLE tweet of the picture, an intelligent person (and, admittedly, this does not include you) would look for confirmation of the purported press release. After all, a press release is intended to receive wide-spread publication because it is a "press release." Somebody ought to be a source of the press release even if it's only the Pawtucket School Department.
Upon finding that the ONLY source of the press release is, in fact, the EXACT SAME SOURCE as the SINGLE tweet of the picture, an intelligent person (no, no, not you) would rationally conclude that the picture is indeed a hoax.

ETA - 10 pages in, and you're still pretending this didn't happen.
I'm flat out saying it didn't happen because there is NO source for this story except the tweet by Romona Bessinger and retweets of that original tweet.
The only source of the "press release" is the EXACT SAME SOURCE as the original story: Romona Bessinger.
Please provide an independent link to the story.

Are you asking if we have anything other than actual pictures?
No. You won't find better evidence than that
In a world of AI, you are willfully ignorant.
Ten pages of debate on an "actual picture" of something that does not exist.
Intelligent people occasionally question the premise.
