Now we’re just arguing semantics. I’m arguing that the 13th amendment abolished racial slavery in the way we think of racial slavery, like generic, history class, cotton field slavery that supported the south’s economy before the civil war. You’re arguing that the powers that be essentially found a way to continue slavery under a new guise. That has a lot of merit, its just not what I was talking about in my earlier comments.
Secondly, thanks for proving my point. Look at who the largest demographic is on that chart you posted
Inb4 “but compare the percentage incarcerated to the percentage in the population”
Direct quote from the article: “58.70% of the prison population is white, which includes Hispanic Americans.”
Except that most people consider Hispanic ethnically different from your run-of-the-mill white people, and most leftist talk a lot about racial disparity towards Hispanics as being similar to racial disparity against blacks. These are pretty poor statistics to support your argument
