Racial Lies and Racism

CNS: Earlier this month, The New York Times ran an article titled “U.S. Rights Unit Shifts to Study Antiwhite Bias” on its front page. The article says that President Donald Trump’s Justice Department’s civil rights division is going to investigate and sue universities whose affirmative action admissions policies discriminate against white applicants. This is an out-and-out lie. The truth is that the U.S. departments of Justice and Education plan to investigate racial bias in admissions at Harvard and other elite institutions where Asian-Americans are held to far higher standards than other applicants. This type of practice was used during the first half of the 20th century to limit the number of Jews at Harvard and other Ivy League schools.

Drs. Thomas Espenshade and Alexandria Radford documented discrimination against Asians in their 2009 award-winning book, “No Longer Separate, Not Yet Equal: Race and Class in Elite College Admission and Campus Life.” Their research demonstrated that, when controlling for other variables, Asian students faced considerable odds against their admission. To be admitted to elite colleges, Asians needed SAT scores 140 points higher than whites, 270 points higher than Hispanics and 450 points higher than blacks.  more

  1. They’re changing the original Asian emphasis to “White”; so that brain-dead left wing white-hating dog-whistle responders will reflexively be against this, even when they’re Asian.

  2. Still completely on the wrong track, eliminate all Race based criteria.

    However, if the student is from a communist country they must score 2000 points better than an American, Socialist Europe is 1000 points more than an American and anywhere else 500 points more than an American.

  3. Funny, I just read a quote a few minutes ago that came up at random:
    “Hating people because of their color is wrong. And it doesn’t matter which color does the hating. It’s just plain wrong.” – Muhammed Ali.

  4. The statistics showed that even with lowered standards and affirmative action, blacks are a lower percentage in top universities and colleges today than 35 years ago. 8 years of a radical leftist racist bigoted black leader held to lower standards of performance couldn’t change things.

    Maybe it’s time to follow Moynihan’s advice of benign neglect.
