    yes, benefits white women the most but you cant argue that it doesn't help working class black people. some university HALVED their black student pop. do you really think that was all rich kids? it was never anything but table scraps and yet its the most this country has given us. universities are expected to return to 1960s levels of black students. seriously this is going to be horrible for hundreds of thousands of black people. please try to have empathy. just because we look like a few percentage points on a graph doesn't mean we dont feel this shit.

          You're good, it's also my fault for not being very knowledgeable about this, sorry

          I also never went to school in America so I never got a ground level view of the issue either

      My black students are going to be more depressed than usual next semester and I think I know why already. yea
