Race conscious admissions gave the white people who run these universities perverse power over racial minorities. It enabled them to create an “It’s a Small World” atmosphere that effectuated the vision of diversity favored by white people. I can’t help but think that the admissions people at Harvard and Yale regard Obama as a success of “diversity” but don’t feel the same way about Justice Clarence Thomas. Minorities groveling to prove to white ladies that they’re the right kind of minority to “represent” their race is a practice that needs to be confined to the dustbin of history.
