Ban race-based and gender-based affirmative action in universities.

Created by P.B. on August 29, 2015

Race-based and gender-based affirmative action in universities is unconstitutional, as it shows that all men/women are not created, or judged, equally. It discriminates against many, mostly white and Asian men, and it doesn't have to be this way. Picking someone for their skin color/gender is unfair either way.There are different, less racist, and even more efficient ways of ensuring diversity in colleges that don't rely on skin color or gender, such as class affirmative action. Simply put, being black or a female, unlike coming from a poor background, is no validation for lesser grades and shouldn't be treated as such.
In conclusion, race and gender-based affirmative action is discriminatory and racist, and it will only proceed in widening the racial and gender divide in our society.
