think my coils burnin. damn.

Put some ice on it

Oh crap liberals want that banned

Yeah: institutional racism is the imbalance of treatment to one particular demographic or race with the intent of continuing or creating a power imbalance through statutes, rules, and codes that do not necessarily specify race but which have an effect regardless. That is the definition of racism I have been using.

we want ice banned? lol

Liberals shouldn't be trying to abolish ice. The right is doing that well enough with the ice caps. liberals should be trynna save it. D:

ohhh ice lol

hahahaha

lol, it's a joke on ICE.

yee yee

prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior.

I try to keep an eye open and I realize, I haven't closed my eyes in a long time.

This is the real definition

no dude, they're both definitions

Notice the “prejudice”

and they have different situations that are important

By denying whites that is technically prejudice

yes, you're right

but the power imbalance is not in that direction

Does this mean you are okay with racial prejudice?

Depends, again, on the power imbalance

that's what I keep saying

Can blacks be racist towards whites?

again, depends on the definition of racism

and the situation

black people trying to get the same opportunities as whites by getting some extra help is far from being racist towards whites

because of...again...the power imbalance that has endured centuries in america

I think anyone who shows they could really succeed in college should be admitted, and if someone who shows they will succeed is not admitted, that's sorta wrong. But, I think the ones being weighed in the issue of race are the ones mostly who show they "may." The lower end of the admittance pool. Am I wrong in this assumption?

Yes it is because if I was more qualified than someone and they got to go to that college over me because they were black, is racism.

But how could you measure qualification? SAT scores and GPAs are often linked to several factors including stability at home, income, and how many generations a family has sent kids to college. All of those factors are also correlated with race.

So is it moreso that if two people are relatively close in academic excellence, they're more likely to admit the minorities?

exactly

It does not matter about race. It just matters about academics

it would have to be close to be acceptable

but our measurements of academics are flawed

From what I've seen of most colleges, you don't have to be fantastic academically to be admitted.

and imperfect

depends on the college

An economy cannot work with unqualified people getting the most college admissions

I'm not advocating for that

The higher end colleges are fewer in number
