If elite colleges really wanted diversity, they would not ask for skin color unless they think races are different.
MOST People Think Races are/have Differences.
Examples
Lets say, There was a Major Marathon, without knowing who they are, but knowing the winner came from one of these Countries Kenya or Samoa which of these 2 countries do you think the winner came from?
There is a High School State 100 Meters being run 32 Kids will run the heats, the State is 75% White, 10% Black and 15% other Asian, Indian Etc. which group would you pick to have to the most kids running the 100?
I just used these examples as they are running related, but you could do the same with Intelligence, School Grades whatever.
Does it mean you are Racist, I say No because racism has to involve hate, It is Occam's Razor- The simplest answer is probably the right one, YOu see in most of the Marathon's most of the people who win or are at the front are Kenyan or Ethiopian, The winner of Major Marathons is Almost Never/Never from Samoa (Samoa actually did produce at least 1 Good Marathoner Gary Fanelli who often led races in Costumes like the Blues Brothers) so most of you would think the winner is more likely to be from Kenya, You thought that NOT BECAUSE OF HATE, but because what you see usually happens, It is NOT ABSOLUTE a great Runner can come from Anywhere, Same with Medicine, people don't think of Advances in Medicine, as coming from African Countries but the First Heart Transplant was by an African Doctor, Also the Igbo Tribe of Nigeria excels academically so smart people can come from anywhere, But most would think Asians meaning Japanese, Koreans, Chinese and Whites would score higher in academics than Blacks as a group There are lots of individual exceptions and the Igbo Tribe is an exception as a group, The only ones that don't think there are differences are Politicians and Far Left Professors (I put Far Left because most Professors see each students performances, so they know the results) Again it is not hate, and racism must involve hate, it is great when Individuals break barriers and prove it can be done.
