1
Why does poor housing affect ethnic minority
groups worse?
  • Black and Hispanic groups are more likely to live
    in poverty they have less choice about where
    they might live
  • Blacks and Hispanics groups are more likely to be
    unemployed this means they cant afford better
    housing and can be forced to live in the ghetto.
  • Blacks and Hispanics are more likely to be poorly
    educated this means you are more likely to be
    unemployed and not be able to afford a good house

Education and inequality
  • Education is seen as the most important factor in
    achieving the American Dream. It is supposed to
    provide equal opportunity for success to all
    ethnic groups.

    ethnic minority groups doing much worse at school
    then their white counterparts
