It's not fair. Neither is discriminating in the other direction because these people are not at fault for what their ancestors did, not to mention that affirmative action policies divide people along racial lines rather than the factor more relevant to today, class lines.

Ask yourself whether a black student with wealthy parents should benefit from preferential admissions to colleges over a white student from a poor background.

you hear people from minority group all the time saying they want to keep the bloodline pure and not dare someone from a different races.

If a white people said this everyone would say he is a nazi.

Similarly when immigrant minorities gravitate to particular localities for their shared culture and background, this is a wonderful example of diversity. When white people do this, its called white flight and is akin to nazism.
