Because not everyone is born with the same aptitudes. Not everyone responds the same, emotionally, to racial rejection, nor do all respond the same to socio-economic rejection. The makeup of each person is radically different in the way of emotions, intellect, natural talents and gifts, talents & skills, and the way they respond to obstacles.
Even in an "equal" society, some are capable of making millions of dollars and others simply don't have the gift of monetary reproduction. How much more does that apply to those who face the enormous obstacles of racism and racial stereotypes, and to those who face socio-economic bias?
