2) Why is there poor social mobility for certain minority groups in 2018?

If you want an answer to question #2, it is going to look a lot like Cliff's answer, with systemic racism notably absent from the list with a notation that poor social mobility and income inequality is a problem that is affecting every single corner of society right now. Any solution that tries to answer that question shouldn't include racial lines.
That's such an evasive answer.
