Dude 3: DUDE! You can't go to UCLA, they have to accept all those Black people
Dude 2: Well, if they have to accept all those Black people, then they have to accept us at a Black school
Dude 1: What Black school? Grambling?
Then they saw me...
Current encounter--2007:
Boss: The only reason why AKA_Monet is here is because she is Black and the only way she got her Ph.D. is through Affirmative Action...
LMF: (Laughing)
Azn Dude: (Shock)
Next day, I found out, I called my husband and he said "I want you to leave."
Welp 21 years and ZERO change in race relations for my life!

Wooooooooooooooooow at the 2007 encounter. You'd think your own co-workers would have enough sense and logical thinking skills to know that there is no such thing as an Affirmative Action degree, and that earning a Ph.D takes
years of research and writing for anyone. SMH
