    It’s not about preferential treatment. Because if it was preferential treatment, well, white folks have had that for centuries.

    It’s about leveling things up. Yes, smart people come from all backgrounds. But if that smart person has a cognitive burden of worrying about basic stuff that other smart people don’t have too, he/she will be at disadvantage when seeking opportunities to advance.

    I’m not saying I’m an expert, and that you’re totally wrong and I’m totally right. It’s just that the topic is not that simple as black and white (heh.)

            In which contexts? Because I’m sorry, you seem to be against affirmative action, and affirmative action definitely gives more advantages to minorities in the U.S. than Europe, which has none of that.

            You’re now contradicting yourself. Is preferential treatment the problem or not? (and it’s spelled preferential with one f.)

            So clearly you’re talking about something else. Please elaborate, if you’d like.
