first of all, white women have benefited from affirmative action more than any other group. are your female white friends experiencing that same imposter syndrome and distrust? did you even know that that was the case? did they? most POC snap back at the white people that question their credentials, not take our hurt feelings out on one of the most effective social justice policies in American history.
second of all, as an actual person of color who was one of 5 POC out of 478 people to get their masters degree in my program, i’d love to learn more about how AA caused more of the problem it’s meant to address. hard to get imposter syndrome when you’re still too disadvantaged to get actual opportunities, lmfao.
also I’m not gonna lie, you saying “blacks” makes me highly doubt you have friends of color regardless. if you do I’m surprised they haven’t told you that using that as a term is uh. I’m gonna go with “eyebrow-raising”
Ok, but if a solution can be found that has the same effect without codifying a groups race into law, isn’t that better?
one last thing: for this to work, the new system has to already be in place. you don’t quit a job before you get a new one, do you? do you that new job anywhere? or do you only see the dismantling of a social program with not so much as a whiff of a plan to provide something better? I could tell you what I see, but I don’t think I need to.
