[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It doesn't seem fair that some middle class kid who grew up in a middle class neighborhood, lived a typica Americanl middle class life and had only seen American Indians on TV, gets an advantage in getting into aschool because of his great great great grandmother.[/quote] And my point is, if an African American kid meeting your description gets an advantage because five generations ago his ancestors were slaves, then a kid with Native American ancestry should to, because of all the shit the government did to them (which, like Jim Crow, persisted well into the 20th century).[/quote] However, African Americans are still discriminated against today. Study after study has shown unfair treatment in the legal system. Black people walking in wealthy neighborhoods are always suspected of crimes.[/quote]
