No worries, thanks for replying. When I say I don't believe in them, I mean I don't believe we (i.e. society) should create those systems. Unfortunately I absolutely believe we do create them, both deliberately and inadvertently.
To clarify, I don't believe in the creation of any deliberately biased system, but I believe the main societal issue is overwhelmingly one of wealth disparity.
I'm not assigning a moral value when I use the phrase "disproportionate benefit". I'm alluding to the disproportionate degree of poverty experienced by African-Americans. Poverty relief should therefore benefit them more. If there was no differential distribution of wealth with respect to race, the benefits of poverty relief would be neutral with respect to race.
Additionally, the person I responded to is very clearly describing a situation related to a student's socioeconomic status. I absolutely believe some kind of "blind" application process is necessary to minimise the impact of a number of possible prejudices held by the admissions team.
Mine has also been up to the wrist in vagina, with moderate colon (limited to the digits). I let people know this before they shake my hand, in the spirit of transparency.
I know where you're coming from, but my mortgage-having peers are often little better off than I am. Though I suppose neither of us technically own a house.
