[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]About time we end this unconstitutional nonsense.

The Civil Rights Act was also super clear on nondiscrimination based on race.

A ever complicated multicultural society like ours [b]must be race blind.[/b] [/quote]

But that is hard to enforce. That is why affirmative action HAD to be introduced. The whites in the establishment would not have budged to take on blacks in certain places, even if they wanted to (for fear of alienation from other whites). The oppression was deep, hard, and almost never ending. In 1964, there was little hope. I know people who are still in the workforce who remember being the first black student at their elementary school in NVA. The teasing, the hair puling, the kicking. The long nights up crying. Those people are heroes and I honor them. They didn't go to school to learn primarily. Rather, they went to school to set a precedent. I simply do not trust groups to be civil and open minded enough to take on those who are different from them. Racism will likely get worse. [/quote]
