Historically, racism and poverty have played a significant role in the struggle of some Texans to receive equal opportunities. Communities of color and low-income individuals have faced systemic barriers that have limited their access to quality education, healthcare, employment, and housing. This has perpetuated cycles of poverty and inequality, making it more difficult for these groups to thrive and succeed. Additionally, discriminatory practices and attitudes have often marginalized these groups and hindered their ability to fully participate in society on an equal footing with their wealthier, white counterparts. Overall, racism and poverty have contributed to the ongoing struggle for equal opportunities and social justice in Texas.
