“However, I have not once heard anyone complain about other preferences. Like the preferences for “legacies” in college admissions. ”

Typical response from the defenders of Affirmative Action. They say that their system of unfair preferences is justified because they agree to keep parts of an older unfairly preferential system. That’s just wrong, two wrongs don’t make a right.

Instead of trying to fix racism with more racism, why don’t we just try equality for once?
