Affirmative action (including in media) is a good thing

First of all I should of stated earlier that your source continues to say Asians being discriminated against has nothing to do with affirmative action and there is no link between the two, While it is bad it doesn't bring anything to your argument. Also lead very much does make you violent (8), And no it isn't correlation (9), Lead contamination in African American house holds was a very deliberate move by housing companies (a move that the government did nothing to change) to profit off of black people with lead poisoning. But yes with immigrants it is a correlation, But why does that matter? And stop-and-frisk laws mostly effecting Blacks and Latinos, Even within crimes Whites commit just as much (6, 7) can only be seen as disadvantaging certain races, And you can't make the argument that "blacks just do it more" or "it's just poor neighborhoods not black neighborhoods" won't cut it because they don't target poor white neighborhoods and in crimes like cannabis use whites do it just as much but blacks are much more likely to get arrested for it. Also obviously I oppose racism, But fighting racism isn't the same as being racist, Affirmative action doesn't hurt whites (10, 11) which is why racial quotas are illegal and it doesn't hurt Asians (your own source and 11), Saying I'm supporting racism to stop racism is disingenuous. Also "If you don't want something to happen to you don't do it yourself" is a ridiculous assertion. I want better representation in certain fields and media to help fix problems that almost always have to do with race, This doesn't negatively affect any race and I'm doing it for marginalized groups (so I want to help blacks because they're disadvantaged and not because I like blacks better), Nothing here proves that I'm racist. And denying there are racial issues even with the overwhelming evidence of racial inequality (12, Every source I've linked about racial inequality prior) isn't helping anyone, And the "you're the real racist" argument is especially unhelpful. The argument that racial discrimination is in the past and it's illegal now isn't helpful when laws, Yes technically illegal, Are still in effect to this day (12). Segregation is illegal yet america is still segregated (13), And blacks are generally poorer than whites (14), Why do you think this happens? The theory used most frequently is generational wealth, Because if your family is poor you are more likely to be poor, And because getting out of a ghetto situation is to expensive for the average person living in one they have to stay in these horrible environments, We can't blame anyone other than past politicians, The personal responsibility argument isn't gonna cut it. So when people vouch for programs like this they want to fix this problem that current African Americans are facing. And I know you're going to think "how could something that long ago affect people today, Quit bringing the past into this", The past is a great way to determine what's going on now, Which is why professionals would never argue that these historically segregated places are still segregated (13) and blacks are poor within these areas like they have been historically (14) is just a coincidence and African Americans should just strive to get out of the ghetto, This mentality is harmful and (if popularized) could regress the progress we've been seeing so far. These kinds of laws don't just disappear, You can still see the mark of it to this day, So programs like affirmative action is trying to fix this problem. The immigrant thing is many an economic thing: Immigrants are almost always a net positive for a community (15) so properly educating them can help them contribute to society and representation in media will help make them integrate into our culture and society, This will allow us to take advantage of the good qualities of immigration and fix the cons to immigration like violence and lesser education. If you don't want immigration that's a different argument but if we continue to have immigration at this rate affirmative action is helping the cause. All my sources are on my profile. And I won't be able to defend my self this time so I'd appreciate it if you cooled it on calling me a racist.
