I encourage you to teach a science course for non-majors at a local university that serves minorities. Unless you are intentionally blind the experience will be enlightening. The variation in quality of high schools in the US is astounding and needs to be experienced first-hand. Where does the talk about genetic variation and unconscious bias even come from? It's not relevant in this context.

That's like saying I need to go live in a bad neighborhood to understand they are bad. Or that I need to do opiates firsthand to understand they feel good. I 100% realize that there is massive variation in high school quality. It doesn't astound me. [1] What does that have to do with making college admissions fair and standardized?
