Despite centuries of slavery, decades of Jim Crow laws, and ongoing policies that have resulted in substandard conditions in many innercity areas, Tom argues that it's not straightforward to assign blame for the disparities faced by African American children born in inner cities today. Drawing comparisons between the material conditions of black children now and in the past, such as the experiences of renowned surgeon Ben Carson, Tom emphasizes the importance of education and the role it plays in overcoming these challenges.
