I too left my reflexive “left-liberal” attachment to the Democratic Party because of what it did to Black people. I saw it first hand in my own neighborhood. White liberals talk a good line, but when schools reach a tipping point, they panic and run away. Affirmative action benefits 2 groups only, white liberals who use it to reduce the competition for their own children, and Democratic politicians who use it to get elected.
Affirmative action is just about as realistic as basketball as a ticket to success.
