Berkeley Admission Stats 2019

Affirmative action was a failure except for women. Blacks were helped but they still think it didn’t stop racism. In fact it made it worst because many people were hurt by affirmative action including many other minorities. Same with defunding cops and reparations. These are all leftist buzz words that will backfire. The black community needs to look inward and and start valuing education and family unity. Black leaders need to address issues that will raise up their community not at the expense of others.

Black people are simply being manipulated and used. Many black people realize this. The real beneficiary will be someone else who has already figured how to tap the resentment. BTW I like the sophistry used by one of the bloggers who used a third-person speech to give a nice cover to an idea that essentially suggests to steal from one group and hand it over to the other.

“Just ask yourself, is it right to give someone a job just because they are white, or black or green or yellow? Or just because they are male? Repealing Proposition 209, enacted by voters 24 years ago, is to repeal the prohibition of judgment based on race, sex, color, ethnicity and national origin. We are talking about legalizing racism and sexism.”

Said by Assemblyman Steven Choi, R-Irvine, who urged a no vote on ACA 5.

Study on Harvard finds 43 percent of white students are legacy, athletes, related to donors or staff

I think we discussed this. Private school are free to admit anyone they want. They can have 100% legacy admissions and still it is OK. Can we say the same for taxpayer funded schools?
