Samuel K on 12 Feb 14This article is about Wells Fargo making black houses in neighborhood after neighborhood foreclose, to where they make the people have not home. They target one poor black house at a time and send out the bills that they can not pay.

Samuel K on 12 Feb 14Wells Fargo needs to send bills to every type of person at a time.

Jack F on 12 Feb 14There is no ladder of feedback. Need to add the tag Martin Luther King Jr.

Griffin R on 19 Feb 14Can you go deeper into the topic, this way you can understand the topic better.

Jack F on 20 Feb 14The black homeowners have definitely gotten the short end of the stick with how they are being treated by Wells Fargo.

Jimmy T. on 20 Feb 14I think that this in completely based on few to no facts. More black homeowners going into foreclosure doesn't mean there is racism involved. There are factors this doesn't account for, like getting fired. However, this doesn't mean that it isn't happening.

Jerry P on 20 Feb 14I agree that it sounds like Wells Fargo is definitely just trying to make blacks and Latinos lose their homes. That's just unfair.

Henry B on 20 Feb 14What was the major problem? You were not clear about that. Also, why do they need to send bills to everyone at a time. I don't think they should send blacks or anyone bills for the foreclosure reason.

SeanMarc T on 21 Feb 14The article is a great example of racial discrimination and this could lead us to more companies that discriminate African-American citizens.
-
William S on 21 Feb 14This is yes racism but also greed. They specificly target these people because they know that they can't pay these bill so they go straight for them. And they are making tons of money off of this. Just like at their stock.

Ben S on 21 Feb 14This needs to be more clear, you need more facts. This could be a good article for our group though.
-
Seth R on 21 Feb 14This is a good article to show how major companies can be racist. Although I feel as though this could have happened to a white person or another race.
-
Hewes S on 21 Feb 14I agree with Griffin I think that it would be better if you went into further deatails.

Jim K on 21 Feb 14Maybe your description could be longer.
-
Sam B on 24 Feb 14This may not be racial discrimination. Black neighborhoods are common in Memphis and those neighborhoods are most likely the poorer ones. The families may be in dept, thus their interest goes up.
-
Jim K on 25 Feb 14I agree with Sam. Maybe it was just a coincidence that all the people being forclosed on just happened to be black that one time.
-
Jimmy T. on 25 Feb 14I don't think this article looks at every perspective. It doesn't look at the perspective of Wells Fargo. The foreclosures could have something to do with their jobs. Maybe their pay got cut, or they got fired. I'm not saying that it isn't happening, but I feel that it jumps to conclusions.
