"If they achieve in school will they be hired?"...without question, companies big and small all over the country spend countless millions in their search for quality women and minority candidates. The US Dept of Labor ensures that.

"Is it easy to achieve in school when you have to do homework with gunfire and police sirens"...no, but I don't really care about easy. Life isn't easy. Nobody that came to this country from foreign lands had it easy; my business partner was telling me about his dad just last week; he started working full time at 12..still got his diploma and eventually funded his own degree at about 30 yrs old.

"Is it really equal?" What idiot on this planet ever convinced you life could or should be "equal". Take whatever cards you were ****ing dealt, and play the hand. Work hard, try to give your kids an opportunity for a better life than you had, and then you can experience the American Dream, rather than belittling those that believe in it.
