So how does Affirmative Action help?

The result is, when a black person truly does achieve success, a lot of people will only think they got there because of Affirmative Action, or some other quota-based program...how does that help race relations?

And then intense tension slowly develops based on people thinking that race was the reason rather than ability and those hired even if they are qualified will have to be deal with the resentment other has towards them.

Reverse Racism is even worse than regular racism because most people don’r realize it exists and it lowers people expectations of people who are a minority group.
