WARNING WARNING WARNING!!!!!
Laz, I believe in it too. Unfortunate as it is, apparently there are a lot who don't. If we lived in a perfect world, we wouldn't need affirmative action. But unfortunately we don't, and we need it. I don't like it, because it promotes the idea that minorities are inferior to caucasians, and it doesn't give some minorities incentive to work hard. Line of thinking, I only have to do this well cause they have to take me cause I am (insert race here). It shouldn't be that way. From what I can gather from reading this article, these kids have the right idea. They are trying to push some buttons. White kids getting scholarships simply because they are white?? ABSURD!!! As it should be for any race or ethnicity. Others may not look at it in the same way. But maybe one of these days we will live in a world, or a country where the thought of anyone being judged on the color of their skin, before the content of their character, or mind will be smiply that, absurd.
