[quote=Anonymous][quote]No it's not the result that determines if it was racism when they selected students with color blind policy.[/quote]

Uhh, yes it is, and it doesn't mean there is blatant racsim in the policy, it means the policy is biased and doesn't account for racism in the facets of the process.  It's EXACTLY how it is always determined.

[quote]How can you be racially biased when they were color blind??[/quote]

The process and its parts can be biased.  Just how they showed standardized tests are culturally biased. https://study.com/academy/lesson/cultural-bias-in-standardized-testing.html

[quote]It's the method. If you discriminate individuals because of their race, that's racism and against law.

Yes, and seeking balance in admissions does not discriminate against any individual because of their race.  Any race which is under-represented will benefit, as Asians do at many LACs where they are under-represented from the same policy.

[quote]Affirmative action is extra help. It's just the fact. You seem to promote racism and sexism.[/quote]

Racial balance in college admissions is NOT affirmative action, and if you don't even know the difference there is no reason to continue this discussion as you are uninformed.[/quote]
