Funny I heard a story regarding the same point about bachelor's degrees

Guy one and Guy two are in the waiting room for a job interview. Guy one walks in and the interviewer says, do you have a degree? He answers, "I have a bachelor's degree," the interviewer says, don't worry about that. We will train you and teach you everything you need to know.

The second guy walks in and the interviewer asks, do you have a degree? Guy 2 says, "No, but I have..,"

The interviewer Cuts him off, well, you don't qualify to work here

Systemic racism and conditioning plays a role in that tho. We often couldn't get good service if we weren't dressed well. It was also a way of showing we were as good as other races etc. Some places refused to sell quality items to us or sell to us at all. Consumerism became a symbol for worth and it started as a way to make day to day life smoother but now that's corrupted.
Doesn’t explain a 5000 bag for any understandable reason. You can dress nice for much cheaper than that. And actually have something. Dressing presentable does help garner respect but the people today spend money to look like bums.

I wasn't addressing the specifics, just part of the root of the issue in general. This phenomenon isn't unique to Black folks, but our issue is more complex than just wanting to appear well off due to the history of racism in this country.

Fact. More Black people were getting their Bachelor's, so they do this. That way they can hire the white folks they want
