[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So you agree with the premise of lower standards![/quote]

No, but it’s clear that you attempt to scapegoat URMs in order to avoid the truth that you (and your children) are simply mediocre.  Your ancestors were mediocre too because they didn’t use their white skin privilege to gain admission to Ivy/highly selective universities when those institutions actively and openly discriminated against qualified URMs.  It sucks to suck.[/quote]

What about the qualified Jews, Irish and and Italians that were discriminated against?  I have one of each on my family - alive right now - who were all denied admission to the best law schools.   Open discrimination that someone like you is not aware of.  You need a wider world view and less ignorance.  It’s complex and complicated.  Not sure you can muster what it takes to consider.

Are qualified Jews, Irish, and Italians still being discriminated against based on race or skin color (the latter two groups, specifically)?  Are they still subject to widespread economic discrimination in the form of employment, housing, and education?  Please sit down and educate yourself about anti-Black racial discrimination that is BOTH historic and contemporary before you attempt to join this discussion.[/quote]
