A groundbreaking exposé of racism in the American taxation system from a law professor and expert on tax policy
“Important reading for those who want to understand how inequality is built into the bedrock of American society, and what a more equitable future might look like.”–Ibram X. Kendi, #1 New York Times bestselling author of How to Be an Antiracist
Dorothy A. Brown became a tax lawyer to get away from race. As a young black girl growing up in the South Bronx, she’d seen how racism limited the lives of her family and neighbors. Her law school classes offered a refreshing contrast: Tax law was about numbers, and the only color that mattered was green. But when Brown sat down to prepare tax returns for her parents, she found something strange: James and Dottie Brown, a plumber and a nurse, seemed to be paying an unusually high percentage of their income in taxes. When Brown became a law professor, she set out to understand why.
In The Whiteness of Wealth, Brown draws on decades of cross-disciplinary research to show that tax law isn’t as color-blind as she’d once believed. She takes us into her adopted city of Atlanta, introducing us to families across the economic spectrum whose stories demonstrate how American tax law rewards the preferences and practices of white people while pushing black people further behind. From attending college to getting married to buying a home, black Americans find themselves at a financial disadvantage compared to their white peers. The results are an ever-increasing wealth gap and more black families shut out of the American dream.
Solving the problem will require a wholesale rethinking of America’s tax code. But it will also require both black and white Americans to make different choices. This urgent, actionable book points the way forward.

Lol. A wonderful piece of fantasy fiction with a heart warming conclusion as the delusional anti-hero leaves with the nothing that they so richly deserve.

But, but, but…you wuz kangs n sheeeiiiittt

Well I must be black and never even knew it, I’m dirt poor… and white…
This is more racebaiting and race based victim Hood crap…
October 23rd, 2021
Dear white Highlandcharge,
you identify as a victim. Why don’t you join forces with the many black people, who are victims too, to fight against your oppressors? Wouldn’t combining forces be better than doing your oppressors bidding and shooting yourself in the foot in the process? ;-)
October 23rd, 2021
Spot on Highlandcharge.

Many non-white people have arrived in America and elsewhere with nothing but ambition and drive and have gone on to be very successful. This is not about race or being oppressed, it’s about getting stuck in.

Every topic that rightfully shows how white people created a system to oppress blacks and benefit themselves, they automatically condemn and bash. Take critical race theory, they can’t even deal with their actual real matter-of-fact history of racism, hate and slavery being taught in schools. If you want to know if something is a real, look for the angry white people bashing it.

Nothing wrong with being white.
October 23rd, 2021
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha everything is racism…nothing is our fault……SMH

rethinking the American tax system?
repeal the 16th amendment?
I’d go for that…..
Consumption tax… in its place.

@Highlandcharge sorry to hear that, I assume that your parents were denied the right to marry someone of the ‘wrong’ skin colour, denied goods, denied services, denied education, and denied access to housing because of their skin colour as well weren’t they? There are still plenty of people alive who lived through that.
Careful throwing stones and saying black people are only poor because they aren’t ambitious or driven. On a site where people download audiobooks because in most cases their budget means they can’t afford to buy them.
Temporarily embarrassed millionaires.

For all the whining that a certain group of blacks do, why don’t they just head off to one of those black Utopias which are run for the benefit of all the black people?
Oh right, yeah, it’s because they don’t exist.
The idea that the white man built a world to ruin blacks is laughable. From Africa to the Caribbean, they do a perfectly good job of that themselves.

I think you’ll find the tax system is designed to favour the lifestyles of the wealthy.
October 25th, 2021
Are there mods here?
Can we kick out the ACTUAL FASCIST GordonCoon please? You’ve given him a platform for his far-right lunacy and abject racism for long enough I think.
October 25th, 2021
know thy enemy
October 26th, 2021
Wakanda’s not a real place Benson, and it’s not “far right” to speak the truth.
October 26th, 2021
@GordonCoon
But YOU are far-right, and as such deserve what’s coming to you.
We won a big war over it, you might have seen it on the History channel.

tenbenson is a low-IQ loser who calls anyone smarter than him “FAR RIGHT!!!!! and “FASCIST!!!”
This is a stupid book. Niggies account for 13% of the population yet commit 55% of all murders and 70% of all felonies yet we’re supposed to believe they’re the victims of “the system.” What a scam. The rest of us are the victims of niggies.
