I won't deny that there is racial discrimination and inequality in college admissions, the workplace, pay, etc... But there have been plenty of people that were passed over for promotions or a job simply b/c they weren't a minority. Was it needed after Jim Crow and desegregation? Yes. Is it necessary now? I'm not so sure.
Where the hell is this? Name me one place where minorities have a advantage against white people? Please name this place.

That's the entire point of AA, it gives minorities preference over others.

United Negro College Fund.
Do you know what this program is all about. If you think that this is a 100% full scholarship program you are wrong!!!!! The average amount that the UNCF gives away is approximately $1000-$1500 per year, per student. Back in 1989 I received a whole $250.00 from the UNCF. :coffee:

Btw, what percentage African American do you need to be to qualify? My daughter is about 10%, would that be enough? :thumb:

The awarding of federal contracts
This is only 8% of Federal Contracts. If you want to talk about something that is unfair, why did Halliburton get a no-bid contract during and after the invasion of Iraq. Name me one minority contractor that made money in Iraq?
College admissions and scholarships
Really, we don't make up 5% at most college campuses across the country. So where is this so-called flood of black students that are taking white student places in these colleges?
Induction, promotion, and retention in the armed forces, particularly in the commissioned officer ranks
This is Bullshit. The Military is the only sector in our country where you are promoted based on your performance. 1/3 is based on your time in service, 1/3 is based on your test and courses that you have taken and the last 1/3 is based on your peer review and from the recommendations from your commanding officers. So again, who does this unfairly benefit minority officers :coffee:
Those are just three easy ones I've seen first-hand

Ain't that some shit. :lol: I got you one better. My wife is a member of the Wassamasaw tribe (they are https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wassamasa ... wn_Indians. My wife is pale skin with blonde hair, her sister looks straight up Native American (olive skin, dark hair, round face, etc...) Her sister was given a Native American scholarship based on her ancestry a year after the same people denied my wife.

The people the decided who got what grew up with my father in law and know they are all active members of the tribe. :dunce: Ain't that some shit.

My Great Grandfather Wife was a full blooded Creek Indian. He met her in Tampa, FL when was returned from Cuba after the war. I did my DNA and it said 23% Native American and it said I was mostly Creek and some Cherokee Indian.

A-lot has to do with who is reviewing the app. Today you can show them your DNA profile and they have to give you a scholarship.

Halfway between a fifth (20%) and a fourth (25%) is 23%. 20%*6.93+25%/fifth = 23%. DUH.

That would make you around 12% Creek (assuming by your Great Grandfather's wife you mean your Great Grandmother) based on the heritage that you already know.

You would have had to have done mtDNA to show any matrilineal heritage, but mtDNA shouldn't give you a percentage greater than 13% based on what you know. If you truly are at 23% then you have more than just your Great Grandmother, and at least one of your Indian ancestors was mixed (African/Indian, Indian/Caucasian, etc) Cherokee and Creek, interestingly enough, are in fact different predominant haplogroups so you can get that division.

But if we take as a given that you have one great grandparent that is Amerindian and that's all, then your DNA result is wonky

But, perhaps I misremember your position, but haven't you argued before that different haplogroups are different races? Are Creeks and Cherokees different races?
