No doubt Blacks have paved the way for the rest of us, however this is not the issue, paving the way via protest and sacrifice and leadership roles in business are two different skill sets. Blacks have reaped a windfall in entertainment and sports but have consistently lagged behind in academics. I am not here to address the reason but rather to state the statistics.
b_gurd one, what on earth do you mean by the "lesser intellectual performance" of "Blacks" ?
further, what does all this have to do with "Africa" and , for that matter, "INDIANS" and India?
better yet . . . GUYANA!!!!
hmmmmmmmmmmm??
Maybe he referring to this? Scalia was commenting on those getting in based on quota and not merit! I'm sure it was not all, but the "some" to which he as referring!
