[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am preparing my child for our vacation tomorrow. He is helping with laundry and packing. Do people really have time to think like the OP?[/quote] Parent of a white child here, I'm actually getting her ready for a playdate. I didn't realize I should be getting her ready for life as a minority. Crap, I'm already behind. Are there "minority 101" classes I should take? Thanks OP for letting me know, such a big help![/quote] While you're cleaning up vomit-poo and complaining to everyone about how busy you are, here's one random section of one random race group out of a dozen just on Capitol Hill: http://capac-chu.house.gov/issue/economic-development Asian Pacific Americans want $10 billion more in government contracting steered their way. Push for promotions in management positions in both the public and private sector. More help from the GAO for minority contracts. More federal technical assistance from the federal government. Not to singe out Asians, but one year Asian owned businesses received 3/4 of all Small Business Administration loans. Why? Because they qualify for minority privileges but frankly don't need the help. Asians overachieve in many areas. Also minority government contracts are legendary because of preferences written into law. This is just one category of several demands that the AAPI group has. And one race group of a dozen just on Capitol Hill. You go ahead and think that your child is overprivileged while these pressure groups rake in billions and position themselves as your child's boss. Too bad there isn't a Minority 101 class but you might opening up your mind and reading more. Wake up.[/quote]
