[quote=Anonymous]We all know that it's very, very much harder for first generation college students to finish college. UVA didn't desegregate fully until the 1960. Likewise for UNC. At UNC, parties with Klan costumes and blackface were not unknown in the 1980 (just check out the yearbook from those years if you doubt it). We all know that most middle class people have traditionally accumulated family wealth through their home. Restrictive covenants and other kinds of housing discrimination prevented black families from owning homes that would appreciate until the 70s, and housing discrimination continues in 2019. Where are the black landowners who were kicked off the land where Ft Reno is now in the early 1900s? When were DC schools desegregated, and how did the white community respond? These are the roots of "inadequate prior experience." [/quote]
