there are always unintended consequences to this...using geographical quotas is not the same thing as using race. However, other majority and minority groups may see this as an easy ‘in’ to a school. Just move into a low-scoring predominately minority district to gain easy entrance to an otherwise unattainable school.

When you add in illegals aren’t white males now a minority in California? Aren’t they due minority rights under the law?

Yup. Two wrongs make a right.

Racism is apparently permissible according to the court.

Of course not. It isn’t about fairness. Its about getting even.

"Aren’t they due minority rights under the law?"

White males are the doormat of our modern society. It's perfectly ok to make fun of us, discriminate against us, and confiscate our wages.

All the while, we are expected to work hard and produce, because they need us to pay our "fair share"....

Under a plan the district enacted in 2004, each area of four to eight blocks is given a diversity rating based on racial breakdown and parents' income and educational levels. The district uses that rating in enrollment decisions at the city's 11 elementary schools and in special academic programs at Berkeley High School.

(edit)

"Using neighborhood demographics when assigning students to schools is not discriminatory," Justice Patricia Sepulveda said in the 3-0 ruling. "The challenged policy does not use racial classifications; in fact, it does not consider an individual student's race at all."

The way that they can look you right in the eye and tell you a boldfaced lie is just astonishing.  Utterly soulless vermin.

Liberalism is truly a cancer that eats away not only the mind but simultaneously the heart and soul as well.

Back in 1951 the SF Dons Football team was one of the best teams in the country, had three future NFL Hall of Farmer's, the Information Director was a kid name Pete Rozell, they were 9-0 and invited to a bowl game only if they left the black guys at home. They, as a team decided not to go. I am sure a lot of these same comments were made back then.

Yeah...probably Democrats who told them to leave the black guys at home......read UNFOUNDED LOYALTY by Wayne Perryman, an African American researcher/writer.

Certainly no Conservatives of the time would say such a thing.

Nope. Whites aren't a race, just white. And if you are a white Christian, they can call you a racist AND bash your religion without repercussions.

This is reverse redlining.
That is, by California legal rulings and Federal Law, by definition a form of racism according to National Commission on Fair Housing and The Leadership Conference on Civil Rights Education Fund (LCCREF).

There is a definite avenue of appeal for this case based on extensive case law regarding redlining and CREF lawsuits.

Well, sure. Everybody knows if you grow up in a black neighborhood it’s very difficult to learn. But if all your neighbors are Asian, life is easy for you.

This is no different from the admissions practice of Jim Crow; only the races have been changed to protect the guilty.

Well the answer if for every American to list their race
as “other.” Probably most of us have some other race
as part of our heritage. So....we just claim that
race as our own identity.

At least then if there is a specific race that is supposed
to be the beneficiary of all the goodies, the gov’t will
have to get very specific. Could get interesting.

Nope. Whites aren't a race, just white.

Whites discarded their racial identity long ago as an olive branch to minorities.

The expectation was that we would all discard our racial identities but the gesture was regarded as an act of the guilty.

Now, every other race wallows in its own racial pride rather than uniting thanks to the Left.
