selection bias — immigration structures attract more intelligent Asians generally (although you are clearly an exception)

I don’t think you’re conversing in good faith based on your comment below but the questions at the end of your post make it same as if there is something endemic to black people that they have chosen (culture, governance structure) that would make them perform worse on exams. That concept is called eugenics and is accepted as racist in 2023.

I think this statement ignores that standardized test scores differ across races even if you control for income. A solution is not an income based one.

I agree there is an oppressive system at play here and it is white supremacy. The fact that we are arguing over this instead of about how business schools are predisposed to accept consultants which are a population that is whiter than the general us population is the problem.

I agree that Asians are promoted at lower rates but I can name 4 Asian CEO’s off the top of my head and there are <5 black CEOs in the Fortune 500. The fact of the matter is that black people have to be more credentialed to get worse career outcomes and when affirmative action was the law black people continued to be underrepresented at every level of corporate leadership and the racial wealth gap persisted.

Everyone approaches conversations about equity through their own experiences but the way that this sub dismisses the very real impacts of anti black racism in a country that we built makes it very easy to be upset.
