Shut up white woman.

“While people of color, individually and as groups, have been helped by affirmative action in the subsequent years, data and studies suggest women — white women in particular — have benefited disproportionately. According to one study, in 1995, 6 million women, the majority of whom were white, had jobs they wouldn’t have otherwise held but for affirmative action.”

This is a good example of why "studies' are the JOKE that they are. Done by biased leftist liars, they present the "conclusions" that they set out to present, all the while making them look legitimate.

Since these so-called "studies" generally come from leftist sources (universities, think tanks, mainstream media) they say what the sources intended them to say.

Actually white women have endured HARM disproportionally, from 2 ways

1. More often being discriminated against by Affirmative Action programs that don't take sex into account
2. By being family members (wives daughters, etc) of white men discriminated against by Affirmative Action.
These scenarios are 1000 times as common as the relatively few cases of white women benefitting from AA, especially while most women benefitting from AA, are black.

This discussion/interview by Marc Lamont Hill w/Robin DiAngelo discussing her bestselling book "White Fragility" shines some much needed light on race in America.

Specifically addressing why it's so hard for white people to talk about racism.

You'd do well to take a listen...


Dilkligaf???!!!
