I’m no expert on race. But I’m pretty sure that is racist.

They want to trubalize whites, to control them as they’ve controlled blacks. That’s what this is about.

So 10,000 poor whites are . . . crying on Facebook? If 10,000 poor white people descended on City Hall what would happen?

It’s absolutely racist,
Preference given according to skin color.

Anti-racism smells suspiciously like racism.

unmitigated arrogance when someone makes these claims and then says they are for equality.

It would definitely be illegal for the government to do this.
It probably is not illegal for private parties to do this.
The question is whether the government is enough of a participant to lend it the government’s imprimatur.
It sounds like it, but I don’t know enough about it to give a definite opinion.

The word “racist” has been emptied of meaning by overuse.
People helping their own is normal human behavior.

I don’t know if Oakland mayor contributed to the funds, but project is evidently privately funded.
"The program, funded by wealthy private donors, explicitly excludes poor white families"
So title of referenced article is misleading imo.
Insights welcome.
