I'm contacting my psych prof to get links of studies showing that racism still exists since you all seem to believe that it doesn't.

Those methods you described for compensating transitional wealth would backfire so much with resentment. wow.

Why wouldn't you simply use your college website to cite articles?  I mean it's really easy to find journal articles when you have access to the college database.

 

Also those methods would cause a lot of resentment.  They're also the only way it would work.  Affirmitive Action isn't helping.  The wealth gap has been growing since the civil rights era.  Not shrinking.

The only way to fix it would be unequally applied grants to match up perfectly with whites... or to greatly hinder those who got a head start.

Affrimitive Action will never fix the problem... and instead just be with us forever... while everyone gets to ignore the issue.
