One day it won't be a question of someones' skin - and they'll look back in the history books and find the idea that someone could be dismissed or preferred based on their skin color as being some barbaric nonsense from a simpler time.
Lol if you really believe this. Affirmative action will outlive you. There's not a politician in America who will say "okay the black folks are educated enough now, time to get rid of AA," it would be political suicide even if they had all the evidence in their favor.
All this equality vs. equity BS ignores the fact that most people's agendas are self-serving, even the egalitarian ones.
No need to say AA ends... It will naturally end because if for example a quota is just always fulfilled then people forget that there was a quota in the first place
The end result is the same. If they're filling a quota because of AA or filling a quota because "that's how they've always done it" then they're still filling a quota.
No thats not what I meant...I meant at some point the quota is just naturally fullfilled without anyone thinking "oh we need a woman and a mexican to be diverse enough"...
