| Show Affirmative Action on Right Track Student Claims Dear Editor I am writing this in response to the letter that you printed by Stephanie Lindsay I 1 cannot cannot cannot can can- not believe that a woman feels so inferior to wl white te males that sh she complains about affirmative affirmative affirm affirm- action Its It's a shame that affirmative action programs ever h had d t to be created cheated and are still necessary Its It's also a a. shame that whites still believe minorities are inferior People fail to realize that white males started the game on top while blacks were slaves and hispanics were cheap labor Minorities have come a long way since the days of slavery But ut instead of whites tes acknowledging acknowledging acknowledging ac ac- ac- ac the efforts and accomplishments accomplish accomplish- ments of minorities they cry that we get too many breaks and opportunities T Take ke an hon honest st look and you will see that whites are still getting all the benefits and opportunities I agree that affirmative action is reverse discrimination But minorities have always be been n faced with racism and discrimination and always will be Now whites have to deal with it but only at a a tiny fraction of what minorities do I dont don't feel sorry sony for any person person person per per- son that is a victim of reverse discrimination What's wrong with President Bill Clinton having minorities in his cabinet Are whites afraid of having minorities in charge Lindsay obviously believes that minorities women included are inferior to white males Lindsay has no right to ask if its it's right to judge people based on race creed and gender She obviously is one that judges and stereotypes Racism and discrimination wont won't be solved until whites open their mind and stop stereotyping minorities Lindsay seems to believe that minorities are l lazy zy and beg for opportunities We minorities dont don't want anything anything anything any any- thing handed to us We just want a fair chance Andrew Aragon general studies |
