Affirmative action is not the reason racism exists. For example, slavery was a violently institutionalized form of racism. I am pretty sure slavery did not begin due to affirmative action.

Also, if you want to sound smart, do the work. Excluding usa, most forms of slavery thought history was not based on skin color.

But, yeah, rest of the world, whatever.
