See I did not have to work hard to be a Black female I was born that but whateve skills I acquire I dam sure worked hard for and I want them to be recognized. It is not fair for people to get special privilages if they are White nor is it fair if they are Black. Of course. Yes we have been discriminated against throughout history and will probably face some forms of throughout life, but still we fought for fairness and EQUALITY. Affimative Action was enacted, to achieve Equal RESULTS not Equal RIGHTS. There is a difference in the two. There are a lot of reasons why Blacks and women are underrepresented in certain markets today. I hate to burst some peoples bubble but most reasons have nothing to do with racism, it has more to do with personal choices........... I could go on all about this one so I will stop now sorry about the typos.
