they’ll never let us be “minorities”....

Darn it all.
I was ready for privileges, set asides, cash education benefits, government programs restricted to my benefit, going to the head of the line for colleges, professional jobs, promotions and all the rest of the goodies. What happened, did the Golden Goose croak? I want my benefits.

In 2001, San Diego’s city council approved striking “minority” from official usage — and to stop using the term “Southeast San Diego” to refer to neighborhoods that are largely black and Hispanic — to “move away from the pejorative connotations ... and move to something that was respectful,” said Danell Scarborough, a human resources manager with the city.

“When I asked people around here about ‘minority,’ they said, ’Huh? I haven’t heard that in ages,”’ she said. “There was not a resistance.”
