Brilliant article. The quota system insults the intelligence of us all. Those who benefit from quotas as well as those who are punished for not meeting the requirements of quotas. The judgment of people based not on the color of their skin but on the content of their character has been lost long ago. The present obsession with race is, ironically creating conflict between races. Corrective measures must first, do no harm. I will never forgive the DNC for race baiting to advance their fortunes. It is destructive and immoral.

Affirmative action is structural racism against Black people.

The dirty little secret is that affirmative action hurts Black people and the people who run affirmative action programs know it. I don't have access to my files, but they admitted to this in the Michigan cases.

It's obvious why. Black students thrown in with a class of stronger students drop to the bottom or out at a high rate.

The consequence of this is that Black people have not been able to close the gap. The solution, instead of getting rid of harmful programs, is to make racism worse everywhere and call it "equity." And they are drawing in more groups as a smokescreen.
