[quote=Anonymous]I am fine with giving some preference to poor kids of any race. Society is not yet race-blind, but we collectively have to keep moving towards that goal. As an example, dirt poor kids (of any race, and yes most racial/ethnic groups are present) deep in Appalachia have no advantages, and lower quality schools available to them. In some public school districts in Appalachia, nearly every kid qualifies for a free lunch. Often, school lunches are the only hot meal those kids get during the week; sometimes it is the only meal they will get that day. People in prosperous suburbs sometimes forget just how many poor people live in this country. [/quote]
