we're into the final week of #TheReadingRoom and it has been a challenging and inspiring experience

if you're interested in exploring philosophy outside the standard white academic sphere, and learning about the theory behind intersectionality, decolonisation, anti-racism, i can't recommend it enough

thank you @CaribenxMarciaX for all the work you've put into it, and into the fediverse in general

"”Cities and towns with majority Black residents experience among the highest quote prices compared to cities of any other racial makeup, regardless of how clean their driving record is,” the report states. “A driver with a clean record living in a majority-Black neighborhood pays almost 20 percent more for car insurance on average than a driver living in a majority-White neighborhood who has prior driving offenses.”

As the report tells it, the industry practices a form of “redlining,” the long-illegal practice in which banks used to deny or charge more for loans to homeowners in Black areas — although it doesn’t use the term: “A similar pattern holds for homeownership and credit score, with a 13-percent increase in car insurance costs for homeowners in Black neighborhoods compared renters in White ones and a 24-percent increase for car owners with excellent credit in Black neighborhoods compared to poor credit in White neighborhoods,” the report says."
