“If preferences for black and Hispanic applicants are abolished, expect a backlash against admissions boosts for children of alumni and donors”….
Wrong, all itm means is the demographics of admissions would shift to those that fit the new system/criteria irrespective of color…..”
Second type of articles claim abolishing affirmative action would be determent all to minority rights. Wrong. It would be detrimental to some minorities that got in under a two criteria system. it would not be detrimental to those minorities that can get in normally. And it would definitely help those minorities that were held back because they aren’t considered minorities and quota limited.
Notice no mention of Asians anywhere in these articles… Things are only white and black….no consideration for yellow….How convenient…..
Now consider this..Most Asians probably only care about the education unfairness institutionalized mainly by progressives. Things repeatedly challenged over and over again as far back ago 20 years+ by Asians, including me. Constantly falling on deaf ears from progressives… no hearing, no thought, no compromises from progressives….Same old policy or worse as the years progressed. Without reform, or a say, Id say there’s a pretty large body of pissed of people that would be glad to see this entire system torn down…and this is just over one issue … there’s countless other issues that that a lot more people are equally pissed off over all over the country, again unmet over decades. It finally boiled over….and what we ended up with is an extreme, ugly backlash of the status quo that is now known of the Trump Era… It’s pretty ugly, it’s pretty extreme… and it will undoubtedly undo a lot of changes bad OR good….but certainly, it shouldn’t be a surprise why this happened..
on as much if we stay on this extremity, in 10-15years, well end up violently swinging back to the far left….10-15 years is probably when another supreme court judge seat will be available…..
That’s what our country has become a violent swinging between far left and far right where anyone in the middle is perceived as weak, in part stirred up by the media for ratings. We deserve every bit of crap we are getting.
