Affirmative Action?

Question

Is it still needed?  Is it really quotas in disguise?  Is there a way to implement it without “reverse discrimination"?

Answer

I used to teach high school, and some of my white students would get upset about how it's "easier" for minority students to get into college.

I would always ask if they also thought legacy admissions, or getting "boosts" on your application because your parents, grandparents, etc, also attended the school, is also unfair. Especially considering some of these schools didn't admit minorities at all until the 1950s or 60s.

It was always interesting to hear their responses.

Answer

Why do people forget that affirmative action also benefits women and the disabled as well as other minority groups?

Answer

400 years... 
It's only been like...what? 150 years? 
Think affirmative action still needs to be there. You need to understand that people worked as slaves back then to build the economy and financially empower everyone else expect their own. Reverse discrimination would be having the other race back in the cotton fields. And that's not happening so... It's going to take a long time for Africans (world wide) to be on the same level as Europeans who have benefited. I'm from South Africa and white people are still more privileged than blacks. Because that kind of "looting" takes decades to cover up. That's all.
