The system is there to spread dark skin across all strata of society, breaking the stereotype that a particular skin color belongs in a particular lower strata.

The system is there to spread dark skin across all strata of society, breaking the stereotype that a particular skin color belongs in a particular lower strata.
The problem with this though is that whites have to pretend that the system doesn't exist for it work. If dark-skinned students are allowed in because of a well known preference program the stereotype is in fact reinforced.
- jeb 16y agoIn the short term it is reinforced. But on the longer term, you create a wide array of dark skinned college educated people who have college level jobs. College educated tend to breed college educated, and family/relatives will tend to be college educated. So in the medium term, the current state that the black community is in will change towards a more intellectual and educated one.
