I respectfully disagree on not having the same opportunities.  I think we all have the same opportunities we just don't have the same opportunities to good parenting.   

Oh, there are definitely different opportunities.  A person's money, family, and connections can surely provide better opportunities.  I will give another example:

My cousin (Mom's Sister's Daughter) has a white mother, and a Mexican father.  (Father from Mexico, mother from Alabama)  My cousin grew up in Atlanta where I was born and lived the younger part of my life.  Since my cousin was a minority, she was bussed across the city of Atlanta to a Performing Arts School.  Guess who didn't get bussed across the city of Atlanta?  You guessed it the poor, white kid that was her cousin.  So different opportunities do exist for different people.
