I agree, somewhat. I feel like AA was a smaller injustice invoked to help repair a larger ongoing injustice. It may not have been the right tool.
There's another comment somewhere in this section where someone said that AA has been benefiting mostly white women and minorities that went to elite schools so it wasn't even helping as many people from disadvantaged backgrounds as it was set out to do.
Hopefully we'll be able to come up with a different system that is more just. I think a good start for that would be to remove legacy admissions and take an overall look at different solutions. I don't have a lot of confidence in today's supreme court on that front though.
Thanks for sticking with me through this, sorry about the bread stuff, I got a little tilted.
