People should actually read the article for themselves.


A few interesting excerpts.

Kawsar Yasin, a Harvard sophomore of Uyghur descent, found the Supreme Court decision last week banning race-conscious college admissions gut-wrenching.

Jayson Lee, a high school sophomore of Taiwanese descent, hopes the court’s decision will open the door for him and others at competitive schools.
And Divya Tulsiani, the daughter of Indian immigrants, can’t help but think that the decision would not put an end to the poisonous side of college admissions.

Asian Americans were at the center of the Supreme Court decision against Harvard and the University of North Carolina. In both cases, the plaintiffs said that high-achieving Asian American applicants lost out to less academically qualified students. In Harvard’s case, Asian Americans were docked on a personal rating, according to the lawsuit, launching a painful conversation about racial stereotyping in admissions.

But in the days following the court’s ruling, interviews with some two dozen Asian American students revealed that for most of them — no matter their views on affirmative action — the decision was unlikely to assuage doubts about the fairness of college admissions.

“I don’t think this decision brought any kind of equalizing of a playing field,” Ms. Tulsiani said. “It kind of did the opposite.”

Lower courts found that Harvard and U.N.C. did not discriminate in admissions. But the Supreme Court ruled that, “however well intentioned and implemented in good faith,” the universities’ admission practices did not pass constitutional muster, and that race could no longer be considered in deciding which students to admit.


A few students found hope in the Supreme Court’s decision.

Mr. Lee, the Maryland sophomore, is interested in studying science and technology and supports standardized tests and other traditional measures of merit.

“Before the case, yes, I did have worries about my ethnicity being a factor in college admissions,” he said. “But if colleges implement the new court rulings to get rid of affirmative action, then I think that it will be better, and more even, for every ethnicity.”

Others had more mixed feelings. Jacqueline Kwun, a sophomore at a public high school in Marietta, Ga., whose parents emigrated from South Korea, said she has felt the sting of stereotyping, when people assumed she was “born smart.”

Even so, she said she believed the court’s ruling was wrong.

“Why would you shut the entire thing down?” she asked. “You should try to find a way to make yourself happy and make other people happy at the same time, so it’s a win-win situation, rather than a win-lose.”

Some Asian American students believe, contrary to the dominant narrative in the court case, that they have benefited from affirmative action. Evidence introduced in court showed that Harvard sometimes favored certain Asian American applicants over others. For instance, applicants with families from Nepal, Tibet or Vietnam, among other nations, were described with words like “deserving” and “Tug for BG,” an abbreviation for background.

“I do believe I was a beneficiary,” said Hans Bach-Nguyen, a Harvard sophomore from Camarillo, in Southern California. He said he was not sure until he requested his admissions file and found that one of the two reader comments in it concerned his Vietnamese heritage.

He was happy, he said, to be recognized as a member of an underrepresented minority in higher education. But he wondered whether he was fully deserving. His parents came to the United States as refugees at around his age, and got college degrees at state universities.

“I think my guilt comes from that I did not grow up low-income,” he said.

Echoing a common criticism of the university, he noted that many Harvard students, “even if they are from minority backgrounds, are from financially stable or more affluent families.”

They knew we weren’t the issue, though. :dwillhuh:

What they’re really upset about is the fact that, despite doing CACs work for them, they won’t be rewarded for it.

That’s what a lot of these non-black “minorities” never understand until it’s too late.

Outside of white Latinos, CACs don’t fukk with these other “people of color” either. They view them as useful idiots and pawns.

An Asian could help a CAC lynch a black person and then that CAC would turn around and lynch the very same Asian who helped them.

Hell, I’d argue that CACs on some level respect us black people more than these other groups because we still put up resistance against them.

We have our c00ns and our bootlickers, but en masse black people aren’t trying to buy into “whiteness” like many of these others are.

It’s human nature to respect the rebel and despise the ass kisser and that’s what a lot of these other groups are learning the hard way. :mjpls:

they don’t care. just like the white people who continue to vote against their best interests, the asians who supported the supreme court’s ruling are fine if very little changes on their end, so long as access to higher education is narrowed for black people.

Asian are some of the top earners in this country
white people from both liberal and conservative backgrounds love Asian. It really comes down to the fast that Asian don’t like us.

Here all day long for Asians getting a big boot on their neck. Asians will gladly be the whipping boy for white people. Bunch of big babies that want acceptance from white people and lash out towards black people when they get hemmed up. They’ll continue using us as scapegoats and cowering in fear of whites.

I ain't trying to hear it.

Them smart dumb idiots fell for the banana in the tail pipe. Completely played themselves :snoop:

"Slugs you aint bucking nuthin, You better off bucking yaself, you need to stop fronting." :stopitslime:
We played ourselves too. We allow them to setup businesses in our communities and frequently shop at them, and yet they didn't have our backs when Peter Liang killed Akai Gurley. Not to mention they were smiling with DeSantis when he pushed to ban CRT & approved AA studies.

I strongly disagree that they respect us more because we are putting up any sort of resistance. They are just sitting back watching while we fight among ourselves and do harm to our own communities. We are doing a lot of their work for them and they know it.
