  • I held a “racist” bake sale once. It teaches a lesson about affirmative action. And free speech.

      @@abrahamfelix334 They may not necessarily be arguing about the unfairness of affirmative action at *their* school, but the unfairness of affirmative action period. Or, there may be criticizing it's use within a particular (usually highly competitive) program, such as medicine or law or business.
      Where I work, they *just* initiated this for black applicants. I'll be curious to see the result - schools here already use a sort of affirmative action to try and attract indigenous students (there are two protected spots for indigenous applicants) - I believe most years they go unapplied for. Or when someone does apply? It's someone like Elizabeth Warren (whose DNA test revealed she had no more than, I think it was, 0.25% native ancestry).
      Even HAD Warren had a significant amount of "native DNA," she'd have been missing the point - these policies are meant to "level the playing field," (and many, as in this vid disagree even with that). But if you "pass" for white, it's doubtful you experienced the kind of discrimination that affirmative action is meant to adjust for. Instead, you're often a student with a lower grade and/or less-impressive application simply looking for an open window to squeeze through.

    True story. My daughter was getting ready to go to college. I am Asian, her mother is Latina. She applied for several scholarships and was denied. She was heartbroken. I asked her what race she put on the applications, she said Asian. I told her next semester to reapply and this time check the Hispanic block. Sure as shit she was approved for those exact same scholarships she was turned down for the first time.

I figured everyone there loved books and would chat about it all the time.
    Heck, combat arms was full of jocks and football players. I bored most of the guys in my company.
    I ETSed out of the Army in 2007. I enrolled at a state college and got my job as Starbucks Barnes & Noble. No one read books. No one discussed complex issues. College was a lonely, isolated place. Americans do not care about issues unless it is in front of them. It is the downside to having the security and wealth of options we ALL enjoy every day as American citizens.

    As a young black man who crushed my SAT, got perfect grades, ran track, and got accepted to Princeton... I DETEST affirmative action. The only purpose it serves is to lower the value of a college diploma and make white people doubt whether I earned it from merit or a quota. It is sick, a repulsive affront to justice and equality. To suggest that I "need a little help academically" just because im black?
    Should we get paid more because we are irresponsible with money? Or maybe black politicians should get extra votes added to boost their numbers?
    To politicians who support affirmative action:
    Start treating us as people instead of some different species that needs your graciousness to uplift us. As long as this institutional division exists, equality cannot exist.

      Congrats on your success! We had a small discussion panel at work and a woman (low level) asked HR what the company can do to promote gender equality in our company. Another woman (VP born in China) answered her question by informing her in China everything is based on meritocracy. She never once thought her gender inhibited her from getting into grad school or work place promotions. I work in finance and this especially holds true.

    I'm east asian, and I got rejected from most of my first choice schools (they weren't even that selective) even though I had a 4.4 GPA, received 8 awards, was on the e-board for 4 different clubs, and was on varsity tennis. America needs to re-learn the meaning of "equality"
