Affirmative Action
I have been reading up on this recently, mostly from the AffirmativeAction.org site, and I am basically annoyed. How did this happen in America, isn't it common belief that two wrongs don't make a right?
You might read this and think that I am a middle-class white guy who is peaved because someone of color could get into college or get a job ahead of me on the basis of color. Well, I am a white guy, and I am peaved.
Martin Luther King, Jr., a Baptist minister once spoke of having a dream;
"I have a dream,
that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character"
How do we think Dr. King would feel if his daughter or son got into college or got a job basied on the color of his or her skin?
I think he would feel like I do after reading about affirmative action; peaved...
Thoughts?
