GuestIf you talk to a layman about American/African black history, they will probably try and parrot the fantasy of a historically unique oppression of blacks that warrants current social politics. So try again.

GuestSince 1989, whites receive on average 36% more callbacks than African Americans, and 24% more callbacks than Latinos. We observe no change in the level of hiring discrimination against African Americans over the past 25 years… Accounting for applicant education, applicant gender, study method, occupational groups, and local labor market conditions does little to alter this result. Contrary to claims of declining discrimination in American society, our estimates suggest that levels of discrimination remain largely unchanged, at least at the point of hire.
http://m.pnas.org/content/114/41/10870.full
The authors responded to more than 1,300 employment ads in the sales, administrative support, clerical, and customer services job categories, sending out nearly 5,000 resumes. The ads covered a large spectrum of job quality, from cashier work at retail establishments and clerical work in a mailroom to office and sales management positions.
The results indicate large racial differences in callback rates to a phone line with a voice mailbox attached and a message recorded by someone of the appropriate race and gender. Job applicants with white names needed to send about 10 resumes to get one callback; those with African-American names needed to send around 15 resumes to get one callback… It indicates that a white name yields as many more callbacks as an additional eight years of experience.

Black-white residential segregation, while on the decline, still persists at high levels in most US metropolitan areas… Recent evidence suggests that household-level socioeconomic and demographic characteristics explain only a small proportion of the racial differences in location choices. Racial processes such as prejudice and housing market discrimination continue to drive black-white segregation patterns.

GuestThis article analyzes sentencing outcomes for black and white men in Georgia. The analysis uses sentencing data collected by the Georgia Department of Corrections (GDC). Among first-time offenders, both the race-only models and race and skin color models estimate that, on average, blacks receive sentences that are 4.25 percent higher than those of whites even after controlling for legally-relevant factors such as the type of crime.
http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jels.12077/full
Although there exists a large and well-documented “race gap” between whites and blacks in their support for the death penalty, we know relatively little about the nature of these differences and how the races respond to various arguments against the penalty… whites, who are highly resistant to persuasion and, in the case of the racial argument, actually become more supportive of the death penalty upon learning that it discriminates against blacks…
http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1540-5907.2007.00293.x/full
Controlling for a wide array of factors, we found that in cases involving a White victim, the more stereotypically Black a defendant is perceived to be, the more likely that person is to be sentenced to death.
http://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1111/j.1467-9280.2006.01716.x
Empirical studies of the death penalty continue to find that the race and gender of homicide victims are associated with the severity of legal responses in homicide cases even after controlling for legally relevant factors… In particular, we empirically test the hypothesis that defendants convicted of killing white females are significantly more likely to receive death sentences than killers of victims with other race-gender characteristics. Findings indicate that homicides with white female victims were more likely to result in death sentences than other victim race-gender dyads.

GuestThis paper assesses whether Blacks and Hispanics are disadvantaged at the sentencing phase of the justice system and whether the findings depend on the use of traditional regression-woke af methods to control for legally relevant variables vs. the use of precision matching methods, which attend to potential sample selection bias that occurs when there are not exact matches for those sentenced to incarceration and non-incarceration. Analysis of the population of Florida offenders from 1994 to 2006 using both methodologies indicates that Black offenders continue to be disproportionately incarcerated compared to White or Hispanic offenders, and that Hispanic offenders were slightly more likely than White offenders to be incarcerated.

Using unique data on misdemeanor marijuana cases, this study examines the impact of defendants’ race on prosecutors’ decisions to make (a) plea offers for a lesser charge and (b) sentence offers for non-custodial punishments. Preliminary findings indicated that black defendants were less likely to receive reduced charge offers, and both black and Latino defendants were more likely to receive custodial sentence offers. However, these disparities were largely explained by legal factors, evidence, arrest circumstances, and court actor characteristics, though black defendants were still more likely to receive custodial sentence offers after including these controls

GuestRecent studies by police departments and researchers confirm that police stop persons of racial and ethnic minority groups more often than whites relative to their proportions in the population… In this article we analyze data from 125,000 pedestrian stops by the New York Police Department over a 15-month period… We find that persons of African and Hispanic descent were stopped more frequently than whites, even after controlling for precinct variability and race-specific estimates of crime participation.

Although Medicare provides beneficiaries with primary access to the health care system, racial/ethnic disparities in health care experiences and preventive care are well documented in the Medicare population… In the absence of major health problems, whites have better overall access to care than other Medicare beneficiaries.

African Americans and Hispanics traditionally have faced many barriers that limit their access to and choice of housing. During summer and fall 2000, local fair housing organizations conducted 4,600 paired tests across 20 major metropolitan areas nationwide. These surveys directly compared real estate or rental offices’ treatment of African Americans and Hispanics to that of whites. The study finds that disparate treatment discrimination in rental and owner-occupied housing markets persists…

GuestThis paper tests for racial discrimination in the rental housing market using matched-pair audits conducted via e-mail for rental units advertised on-line… Generally, discrimination occurs against African American names… Racial discrimination is more severe in neighborhoods that are near “tipping points” in racial composition, and for units that are part of a larger building.

Rapid actions to persons holding weapons were simulated using desktop virtual reality… Signal detection analyses revealed two race effects that led to Blacks being incorrectly shot at more than Whites: a perceptual sensitivity effect (when held by Blacks guns were less distinguishable from harmless objects) and a response bias effect (objects held by Blacks were more likely to be treated as guns).
http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0022103103000209
Research shows that participants shoot armed Blacks more frequently and quickly than armed Whites, but make don’t-shoot responses more frequently and quickly for unarmed Whites than unarmed Blacks. We argue that this bias reflects the perception of threat — specifically, threat associated with Black males.

The current work examined police officers’ decisions to shoot Black and White criminal suspects in a computer simulation. Responses to the simulation revealed that upon initial exposure to the program, the officers were more likely to mistakenly shoot unarmed Black compared with unarmed White suspects.

GuestPolice officers were compared with community members in terms of the speed and accuracy with which they made simulated decisions to shoot (or not shoot) Black and White targets. Both samples exhibited robust racial bias in response speed
http://psycnet.apa.org/record/2007-07951-004
Participants were exposed to a crime story embedded in a newscast… Afterward, participants were asked the likelihood that the depicted officer and perpetrator were either White or Black. In addition, participants were asked how positively they viewed the officer who was featured in the story. Results revealed that race unidentified perpetrators were rated as having a high likelihood of being Black. In addition, heavy news viewers were more likely than light news viewers to express a high likelihood that the unidentified officer was White. Finally, heavy news viewers were more likely than light news viewers to have positive perceptions of unidentified officers, but not of Black officers featured in a newscast.

We conclude that disparities in military allocations of goods and burdens sometimes disadvantage racial minorities. This conclusion rests on a review of institutional analyses in five arenas to which researchers have paid close attention: racial patterns in enlistment, officer promotion rates, administration of military justice, risk of death in combat, and health care for wounded soldiers. Although not a direct or intended result of military policy and practice, in three of five cases there was evidence of racial bias and institutional racism.

GuestThe results show that white respondents who saw an image of an African American voter and poll worker expressed greater support for voter id laws than those in the no image condition, even after controlling for the significant effects of racial resentment and political ideology. Exposure to an image of a white voter and poll worker did not produce a similar effect. The findings provide new evidence that public opinion about voter ID laws is racialized

Guesthrough the use of a unique dataset from the 2006 elections, we analyze the impact that voter identification laws have on immigrant and minority voters in California, New Mexico and Washington… Because our data reflects the identification trends of actual voters, not just adult citizens, the findings go far to suggest that voter identification laws could immediately disenfranchise many Latino, Asian and African American citizens.
https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/c910/559899789100536c71b2e577026ba0ea8d66.pdf
Because voter-identification laws discourage voter turnout, particularly among identifiable minority groups, their implementation abridges a fundamental constitutional right. The U.S. Constitution includes a little-known remedy for denying or abridging the right to vote that reduces a state’s congressional representation in proportion to the extent of the abridgements

GuestThis was back when I was around 5-9.
I thought the RAF in WW2 shows and movies referred to the Russian Air Force.
I thought that the Spanish language must have been something like Chinese.I thought that the Holy Roman Empire referred to the late Roman Empire.
I had a teacher’s assistant insist that Gaza and Giza were the same thing.
Yeah, back when I was 6 or something after learning about the Revolutionary War, talk on the TV about the British royals was confusing to me.
I was like, "aren’t they the bad guys, our enemies"?That’s okay, lad. When the Russians invaded Georgia in 2008, I didn’t know Georgia was a nation in the Caucasus and I thought they were invading the US state (which I live adjacent to). I started to panic and wonder if my dad would have to fight them.
We teased our truck driver friend about that and he thought he would have to haul his truck down there.

GuestAre you serious? Check up on the yalta conference where the allies carved up post war europe. Each nation got their occupation zones, ofcourse the capital of the defeated enemy will be split the same the whole country was. stalin wanted west berlin so he isolated it, build the wall, etc. The allies stood strong (thankfully) and supplied west berlin by air (look up berlin airlift). But why would west germans leave west berlin, it is literally their home.

Sometimes they’re closer in sensibility, like the Roman republicans, and sometimes further like the Byzantines, but they’d all be exceedingly strange if not impossible to be able to sit down and converse with normally now even if we could speak their language

GuestI was raised by extremely religious parents/grandparents and so I totally bought into the Biblical account of history. I believed that Judaism was the first and only true (before Christianity) religion and God created everyone, but some people hated God for trying to make them follow rules, and so they started practicing false religions. Also believed Noah’s Ark, Garden of Eden etc. were real events and that creatures like angels, demons, nephilim etc. were real. But then when I was around 8 I watched a cartoon of Noah’s Ark and realized it was kinda scrotebrained and that eventually led to me realizing the whole thing was scrotebrained by the time I was around 15, it took me so long because I was afraid my thoughts would send me to hell.

Naturally this made me start to question how I knew my God was the right one out of all of them, and I eventually came to terms that I didn’t and it was all bullshit. I feel like I’ve lost something because of it though because religious communities are very wholesome and friendly unlike the group of unrepentant poopyholes I find myself surrounded with these days

I thought everybody was in war with Germany in ww2 because they saw the labour camps and the starving people and they just wanted to be humanitarians and kill Hitler -

GuestLike others in this thread, I didnt know what Prussia was. I thought it was a region between Poland and Russia that they called Prussia, you know like a portmanteau of "Poland" and "Russia"
I was really confused when I later learned that Prussians were Germans.

GuestI believed that the ‘holocaust’ happened.
Not my fault as it’s the most propagandised fiction in history.
The amount of human effort that has gone into maintaining this lie basically proves that satan is real.

GuestI thought a nuclear bomb would destroy half the planet and thought that dropping one out of a Concorde to outrun the explosion to wipe out the terrorists in the middle east was a good idea.
I know it’s not history but that’s probably the stupidest thing I ever came up with as a kid.-

GuestI remember my mum telling me that there was a button called the doomsday button was linked to a nuke in the core of the earth, and that if the world got too shitty they’d press it and blow the planet up.
She also told me the doomsday clock was a clock was a clock that would count down to tell people when the government was going to just randomly nuke cities at various times.
I don’t know whether she actually believed this or was just making it up to fuck with me.
