This poor girl can't answer whether she deserves to be at her school. It's sad that she doesn't have the confidence to say I earned my spot in this university with MY work. Top of her class, she earned it, but the white or Asian kid sitting next to her in class may not think she earned because of affirmative action. I like how he draws parallels to welfare and how it cripples rather than empowers.

And Affirmative Action created White Privilege.

Affirmative action is most certainly racist; personally I would want to be advanced based on my knowledge, training, and experience rather than belonging to a particular demographic.

I worked with a black guy that the agency tried to groom for that reason alone. He basically told them he was insulted by the whole prospect and to pound sand.

Applications of any kind should have no personal data of any kind (barring only male or only female appropriate employment). Each applicant should be assigned a number and their qualifications should be the determining factors. It will never happen, because the racists would never sit still for it. The REAL racists that is...the ones for affirmative action.

Yes, it is racist; "the soft bigotry of low expectations".

Good for him!
Blacks will only be treated equally when they demand to actually be treated equally.



"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."
-- Justice Janice Rogers Brown

Hard to ween someone off being a privileged class or handouts.

It starts with people standing up and saying I don't need your pity, I can do whatever I want on my own.

Justice Thomas hates affirmative action. He thinks it casts doubt on every thing a beneficiary of a preference does. He wants true color blind policies. Affirmative action perpetuates racism.

Affirmative Action is the opposite

Helping people meet low expectations. Does the exact opposite of what it is intended to do (intended by misguided people).

If racial discrimination or preference is wrong, it’s always wrong. Those claim the pendulum needs to swing, don’t recognize there is no pendulum.
