I don't recall if Glenn and his guest discussed this point, and I didn't see if in a quick read of Clifton's analysis, but isn't age a critical factor in wealth accumulation? The median age of whites is 44, while the median age of blacks is 27. That makes any comparison not adjusted for age into an apples-to-oranges comparison, doesn't it? If I missed something, I apologize. Coincidentally, just this morning I watched a 2016 Sandy Darity talk at Brown on this very topic and he didn't once mention the role of age, which I assume was a deliberate omission.

Why, I wonder, does The Narrative CONSISTENTLY leave out the results of Asians? Hm.
