Only 42 percent of blacks who enter college will complete, versus 62% for whites.
Even with low-standards majors like "black studies" as a fall-back. Only about one quarter of one percent of computer scientists are black.
Sure - because the racially-entitled don’t want to actually study and work. Too many blacks, Hispanics, and women (the “preferred minorities”) actually believe many of us only have our jobs because we are white, and that we really don’t do any work that any of them couldn’t do - even if they just have a fifth-grade education.
I worked in a place once (as an accountant) where I received a promotion (which surprised me - I was very intimidated by it); a black co-worker (a part-time file clerk) who had been there longer told me he was angry they hadn’t offered it to him. He was truly barely literate, had no knowledge of the work, and really had no idea that there was anything he’d really have to do. He believed they just gave me money instead of him because he was black and I was white.
If whites knew how out of touch many “preferred minorities” were with the daily reality the rest of us face, they would be very frightened; there is no conceivable way we can coexist. There is absolutely NOTHING in common.
Affirmative action is simply a way to fit people into a modern economy who have job skills more relevant on the prairie 150 years ago.
