Answer: even college-educated people of color face unfair discrimination in earnings.

Nearly all immigrants from the Dominican Republic obtain lawful permanent residence in the United States but they were more likely to live in poverty even if they have a college degree. Juliana ’s parents may boast about their family wealth but it is not quite accurate because even college-educated people of color face unfair discrimination in earnings.
