Snap CEO Evan Spiegel: The Covid-19 pandemic has 'laid bare the tremendous inequity in American society'

It's "been very painful to watch," Snap co-founder and CEO Evan Spiegel said on the ""The most important thing that Covid has done, in my opinion, is it has laid bare the tremendous inequity in American society and the failures of many of our systems," Spiegel told CNBC contributor Novak, "including our health system to take care of our citizens."

For example, "you see Black or Latinx people in our culture are dying at higher rates, and you see that the economic impact of Covid disproportionately impacts those people who are also dying at higher rates," Spiegel said.

MakeIt WTF is LatinX?

MakeIt Wondering how sincere he is? Words are cheap.

MakeIt He can donate his salary and stock to the federal government if he really meant it! I bet he does not!

MakeIt Idk why Uber rich white guys try to act woke. It never comes across as genuine and nobody believes they really care. Same with actors in Hollywood. It’s all so transparent in my opinion.

MakeIt What once was a business channel is now nothing but a far left political channel.

MakeIt I thought it was the death of George Floyd that did, but ok. 🙄

MakeIt 💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔

MakeIt The Obama’s entered the White House worth $1.4 Million. Today $40 Million +

MakeIt Virtue signaling rich people. What a joke

MakeIt Let me hold $100, Evan 😉

MakeIt Snapchat is a platform mainly used by women to sell nude videos and nude pictures calling it 'SNAPCHAT PREMIUM' many of those same women are using Snapchat for PROSTITUTION. The women charge money for sex called 'MEETUPS'

MakeIt Why does people with unlimited amount of the money wants to sell the idea that they feel for the poor ? Why don’t they just enjoy their lives without reminding the rest of us what we do not have ?

MakeIt Inequity is intrinsic to capitalism. Stop dreaming or move to Cuba!

MakeIt Some saw it long before.

MakeIt If he feels that way Evan should sprinkle his wealth across all of the areas he feels need it......

MakeIt Another wacko spewing social injustice BS. The black communities are the most heavily taxpayers funded for Food, housing and education! Why the major fail? Well the Black community needs to look within and stop blaming others. You learn... you earn!!!

MakeIt Zimbabweanlivesmatter

MakeIt Right, because befoe Covid everyone saw america as the beautiful and land of the free ? people do say some daft shit.

MakeIt lifes not fair. good parenting taught you this at a very YOUNG age.
