[quote=Anonymous]The system has been stacked against AAs for a long time. Most AA kids are still in low quality public schools. I think as a society, we deserve to give them a boost in college admissions. Yes, some wealthy AA families get an unfair boost but they are a minuscule number. I am a white parent and am eternally grateful that my kids don't have to deal with the stigma of racism, unconscious bias and police targeting. Asians generally have a positive bias towards them which can be a help overall rather than an obstacle. Most people tend to generalize and assume when they meet an Asian person that they must be smart, hardworking and good at math whether that is actually true for the individual or not. Positive biases can be very helpful in pushing individuals along in life in a positive direction whether a person realizes it or not. [/quote]
