I'd like to present the following video of an interview with a man called Thomas Sowell. He is arguably one of the greatest economists of the past 100 years, second only to Milton Freedman. He has quite a personal history, is a highly intelligent (bordering on genius) man who happens to be black. He thoroughly rejects the idea of systemic oppression of black people. This video addresses a lot of different subjects and how they can be intertwined to create a particular outcome.
He may not be flashy or exciting but he doesn't say anything that hasn't been thought out thoroughly and backed up by statistics and studies.
I will present another arguable genius of modern times: Jordan B Peterson. He is a clinical psychologist out of Canada. His research into all things relating to the mind and the way it works along with sociology is, in my opinion, a masterful endeavor. He has no political agenda and vocally denies political motivation in anything he says which is evident in his arguments.
This is a compilation of some of his best arguments relating to inequalities and differences in people and outcomes. He gained notoriety and the wrath of the left when he spoke out against compelled speech laws that were being passed in Canada. ( A whole different story and progression in and of itself)
