U.S. owes black people reparations for a history of ‘racial terrorism,’ says U.N. panel


Quote:So you're pointing to reverse discrimination? Is that what you want to say? They wanted to improve numbers for underrepresented groups so they passed you up? Discriminated against EEOC, what a joke. My father couldn't even dream of getting a job as a firefighter in Jacksonville until AA was enacted in the 1970s. A black man as a firefighter! Such as silly idea.
 

It's exactly the same and both are/were wrong.

 

Merit, not group affiliation (including the good ol boy club mentioned by others) is what should count.

 

It doesn't always, and it's always wrong in those instances.
