Answer:

The fact that only 1% of the top managers of the most important companies in the world are African-American, when the total African-American population in the United States reaches 11% of the population, speaks clearly of a situation of inherent inequality between African Americans and the rest of the ethnic groups that make up the country in terms of access to jobs.

This may be caused by the structural difference in opportunities that these people have compared to white people, due to, among other things, the differences in levels of education and income of their families, which conditions them not to reach a university level at great scale, as can be achieved by members of other ethnic groups such as whites or Asian Americans.

This leads to African Americans, due to the lack of possibilities of being university students, accessing lower-skilled jobs, and therefore cannot obtain the income that allows their children to go to university, creating a chain of disadvantage based in a structural racial inequality that the United States suffers as a nation.

Answer:social learning

Explanation:

Social learning refers to how we learn from all those around us by closely watching their behaviour. Mostly we have people we look up to as our model and we are likely to model their behaviour after studying it carefully and we may find ourselves later doing what they did exactly as they were doing it.

However the behavior that we imitate depends on whether the behavior that we observed was reinforced or punished from our model. If the behaviour we observed was reinforced which means it hard a rewarding outcome ,it is likely that we will imitate that behavior so that we can also receive such reinforcement however if the behaviour was punished it is less likely that we will imitate it.

This is why Donna is trying to look at their mistakes and achievement because she wants to learnt from their mistakes and not repeat them and imitate those behavior that led to achievements.
