And how do we do that?

Equality and equity are not the same thing, systemic issues are baked into our laws and policies. Mostly geared at the lower socioeconomic status members of society.

Which tend to be minority members due to the very same systemic issues.

Some people need a different sized ladder to get to the same position.
