Just so we’re all clear on what we just read. Black people make up 22% of the poor but only 14% of the government benefits. Meaning, 8% of poor Black people are not taking government benefits when they need them.

While, white people make up 42% of the poor but receive 69% of the government benefits. Meaning, there are white people who are classified as middle class who are receiving government benefits. 

…but welfare queens and stuff.

LET ME GET THIS STRAIGHT!

Black people make up 22% of the poor BUT only 14% of the government benefits.

White people make up 42% of the poor BUT receive 69% of the government benefits.

This needs to go viral.

This is essential piece of information revealing racial bias AGAINST Black people in receiving government benefits.

Never again do I want to hear about White people living in poverty.

Never again do I want to hear about Black people living on government benefits. 

Reblog this. Over and over again. POST IT ON EVERY SOCIAL MEDIA SITE WHERE YOU HAVE AN ACCOUNT.

Dummy of a book I’m currently working on!

It’s the novel ‘Thief of Time’ by Terry Pratchett. I split up all the story and timelines and the main story can be read just like an ordinary book, but all the other storylines (I.e. the one with Susan, or the death of rats) are hidden behind flaps that you must unfold.

The novel is ofcourse © Terry Pratchett, but I found it online ánd I even have the original book here at home, so I thought it wouldn’t be a problem if I used the text for this one copy.
