Airbnb said it has found a “meaningful difference” in the booking success rate for users who are perceived to be White compared to those who are perceived to be Black

Airbnb on Tuesday said it has found a “meaningful difference” in the booking success rate for users who are perceived to be White compared to those who are perceived to be Black. The findings come after the company launched an initiative to uncover and remedy race-based discrimination on its platform.

Have you seen what they do to these houses? This is why you cant have nice things. No respect for other people's property.

A 3% difference? Not a statistician but that sounds like a margin of error not racism.
