[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First Affirmative Action speech was giving at Howard University...Not Harvard, not Galludet, but Howard. That's for a reason because it was meant for American Blacks descendants of slaves & Jim Crow and to make up for those things. The 300 + years of racist/bias policies directed toward American Blacks meant we lack any type of GENERATIONAL WEALTH, especially compared to the larger White Society. If you listen to the speech and legislation the words DIVERSITY WERE NEVER MENTIONED. As Affirmative Action had ZERO TO DO WITH DIVERSITY it was meant to help American Blacks move up the ladder when it came to opportunities and Generational Wealth. It also was NOT RACE BASED as American Blacks aren't a "RACE" but a cultural/ethnic group inside the United States. A cultural/ethnic group with a unique history in a country they help built. As American Blacks were here before it was a United States or a 13 colonies.

Now what has happened is Affirmative Action has been distorted as [b]White Woman have been the primary beneficiaries since 1970[/b] the second beneficiaries are White Males whom both groups receive something called "Geographical Affirmative Action" because not only do these schools want RACIAL diversity but also Geographical Diversity. So if you are are white and live in WV, Texas, MS, Alabama etc you get "extra points' simply based on where your parents decided to set roots.....are we gonna end that program as well? Also they give White Americans Affirmative Action when applying to HBCU's...always have. Now it applies to anyone and everyone including Hispanics which is absurd.

True Affirmative Action was not created for DIVERSITY or for Whites, Asians, Hispanics, LGBT etc it was to make up for Slavery & Jim Crow which none of the groups experienced at the hands of the US Govt. As for as Asians, they need to stop the phony victimhood card. Asians are more than triple their population at ELITE SCHOOLS how can you claim bias when you are OVER REPRESENTED? Not only that but these Affirmative Action policy was instituted YEARS before a lot of these Asian student parents arrived here. How can you complain about a Policy that was created before you voluntarily decided to immigrate here? Asians are not VICTIMS of Bias. US has a unique history that its trying to make up for if those groups don't like it or understand it there are THOUSANDS of other countries and millions of other university outside the US they can decide to attend to[/quote]

White woman have test score and grades that are generally higher than white men.  They did not receive affirmative action, they simply got what they had earned by merit.

Asians are over represented as a percentage of their share of the population but not by their share of top students.

It's time to end affirmative action, along with the boosts that legacy and sports give.  Make it about academic performance.[/quote]

Your delusional. Why is  it just about Academic performance? That's NEVER been the US culture its always been academics plus outside things like sports, school clubs, extra curricular activities combined with GRADES. Things ASIANS usually ignore which is fine in their native culture bu the US culture which they DECIDED to immigrate too never just looked at GRADES. So we should changed US culture because ASIANS want to be more over represented in US colleges? That's Asian discrimination that Asian entitlement. [/quote]
Are you the same poster who was complaining a couple of days ago that Jews are over represented in elite universities? And now you're complaining that Asians are over represented? You are demonstrating a lot of hostility to these groups, and what did they ever do to you? All they want (and seem to do rather successfully) is study hard and get into top schools. Why are you so negative to them? They want the best for their kids just as you do for yours.

Also, you seem to think that different groups should be "represented" in top schools in direct proportion to their populations. So if 10% of the country is Asian-American and 14% is African-American, then the school should have a student body that is 10% Asian and 14% Black. Wrong! You can't just dismiss entrance standards, which are established to predict who is likely to succeed in the program, and throw them to the wind. Asians, generally speaking, score much higher than Blacks, and Whites for that matter. It is only reasonable to expect they would be accepted top schools at a disproprtionate rate.[/quote]

Sorry Different poster, your confused I never made any comments about JEWS. No these groups are the one's showing hostility to American Blacks who face UNIQUE challenges in the country they help form. Unlike these other we didn't have the option to immigrate away from our social and economic constraints we had to do it the HARD WAY and CLIMB OUT OF THEM...which is totally different. You keep putting words  in my mouth so you can DEFLECT away from my correct point. I never claimed universities need to have numbers representative of groups US population. My point is ASIANS are OVER REPRESENTED 2-3 times their population at EVER ELITE COLLEGE yet they get to claim "victim hood". I'm calling out the B.S. Yes Asians score higher than Blacks and Whites WHICH IS WHY THEY ARE 2-3 TIMES THEIR POPULATION AT ELITE SCHOOLS LOL. Where is the discrimination? They score higher so there are more of them. I'm not the one complaining about the Asian population is YOU ALL WHO ARE COMPLAINING saying some how they are being treated unfairly i'm just saying they are not[/quote]
