There is nothing Positive about 'affirmative action'

RE: There is nothing Positive about 'affirmative action'
Racism is best defined as the belief that the human race can be divided upon ethnic/racial lines. The truth is that race is a social construct, the Irish for example were not considered white in the USA until relatively recent times.

To give some a free pass because of their race is racist in the extreme. It is paternalistic & re-enforces racist stereotypes that blacks are incapable of supporting themselves.

Color blindness should not be merely the aim, but also the method for ending racism.
