[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Of course this helps. Anyone who says it doesn’t should be ignored. As said above, mention it in essays.[/quote]

I'll mention that I have a personal suspicion that DCUM skews very very white and that white people might want to believe (and might want to make you believe) that this (colleges still giving a boost) isn't the case even though it is. The # of colleges that changed their prompts to be intentionally leading in a way that would be beneficial to non-white applicants alone is proof enough. Places are just looking for something to point to if they're in a courtroom justifying your admission. Give them something to point to and you're in a good place. Mention life experiences. Mention inspiration.[/quote]

Prop 209 wasn't passed because a lonely asian mom was bitter about her kid being discriminated against.

Prop 15 didn't fail in 2020 because of a lonely asian mom.
The San Francisco School board wasn't recalled because of a lonely asian mom.
The push to get rid of testing for stuyvesant wasn't driven by one lonely asian mom
The opposition to the TJ is not coming from one lonely asian mo.
SFFA wasn't celebrated by one lonely asian mom.

Clearly the work is not over yet.  There are still too many people with racist attitudes like yours.[/quote]
