"There are close to three for every two men in in [the U.S.]. ...
But the easiest way for many competitive to fix their gender ratios lies in the selection process, at which point officers often informally privilege applicants, a tendency that critics say amounts to for men.
At the very least, Martin says, we should know when there’s a thumb on the scale, and for whom."

‘It’s Affirmative Action for the Rich.’
Five Legacy Students Spoke to Us About Their Privilege.

“It’s painful for me to think that all of my hard work in high school was so irrelevant compared to the fact that I was able to check the box that my dad went there,” a graduate of Brown University says. “There is a pretty natural human shame in admitting that you might not have earned something.”

its very stressful being black all the time, its why we die early. Its exhausting, in fact, that no one in power cares to stop the lynchings that go on every year for good. They passed a whole law to prosecute ppl especially for that but we dont do any work preventing the crime or any crime really. All they while, SCOTUS, Desantis and Fox tell us we are a post-race nation. Racism was outlawed in the 60's so we dont need or even to learn abt our history so we stop repeating it

パリの郊外列車の乗換駅で、大きい駅ですが黒人の従業員が多くいました。掃除夫や雑用係で。高収入の仕事でないことは分かります。アファーマティブアクションなら黒人差別があるからそうなるし、アファーマティブアクションでなければ低賃金の仕事に黒人が流れざるを得ない。フランスには明確な差別が存在します。ただし日本にも恥ずべき愚かな差別が徹底して明確にあります。部落差別や在日韓国朝鮮人差別、それ以外の在日外国人差別。特に白人コンプレックスが強いから有色人種への差別が酷いですね。
