And I pity you as you wallow in your racial blame game as the way to explain why it is you have failed in life. If the black mans fault, it's the (insert racial catagory here)'s fault. I am sorry you have not achieved but it is not AA fault. If it were really what you claim then I would have felt it too. My brother and my father would have felt it. My father graduated HS in 1965 just as AA was beginning, he has a Ph D, and a post doctoral degree in Neuro-Psychology. My brother was a cop for 12 years and is now a HS teacher. I have a law degree. NONE of us was passed over to make way for a black student. You protest too much. Pick yourself up by your bootstraps and make something of your life and quit blaming everyone else.
