I'm not sure how one could view the article as "misleading" - what do you feel it was "leading" you to believe?  What do you disagree with?

 You might ask yourself why you had such an animated response to this, or why you felt the need to respond like this.

 I don't see that the article stated anything untrue.  The racial wealth gap is a serious, systemic problem.  And student loan debt is strangling millions of people in this country to the point that many will live their entire lives with it.  There's no way to get rid of it if you aren't able to pay - it will follow you literally to your grave.
