A superficial review of the reverse discrimination argument appears to have merit. In reality, once you understand the basis behind the reverse discrimination argument, you find it is racism and bigotry in its purest form. The reverse discrimination defense only addresses the symptoms of racism and bigotry that affects a small portion of the white male population. It does nothing to address the root of racism, bigotry, and sexism that ravish the vast majority of African Americans, minorities and women in America. It gives no credence that the white male majority created and supported institutionalized racism, bigotry and sexism in our country.
White males refuse to accept responsibility to eliminate the plague they created in our society.
White America created the need for Affirmative Action and no one else. It is a misconception that African American have reaped the most benefits from Affirmative Action. In fact white females have benefited the most from Affirmative Action Programs. They have received more jobs, promotions and benefits as a result of it than blacks and any other minorities. Affirmative Action was never designed exclusively for blacks and yet the public sees it as such.
