[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is holding back poor whites from progress? [/quote] No Affirmative Action No scholarship designated solely on your skin color No privileges in hiring for government jobs that keep quarters for minorities, but not poor whites No landing programs designated for them like the one for AA[/quote] so undoing any program that might try to make a dent in institutional racism/white supremacy? Great. There are merit and needs based scholarships all over the place for white students. I mean, bootstraps and all that? Come on....[/quote] I think even you know that you omitted the word "poor" when you mentioned white students. There are white families that have also endured poverty for generations, and those kids can barely catch a break. ALL of our impoverished kids deserve a chance in this world, and we need to be doing more for them.[/quote]
