Historically, racism and poverty have played a significant role in creating barriers for marginalized groups in Texas, making it more difficult for them to receive equal opportunities. Discriminatory practices, lack of access to quality education, healthcare, and employment opportunities have all contributed to the ongoing struggle for equality faced by many Texans. Additionally, the concentration of resources and opportunities in wealthier, predominantly White communities has further exacerbated the disparities faced by marginalized groups.
