Take heart - many of us do speak out and support you. It's just that most of us aren't actually empowered to help either. It's a somewhat defeatist perspective, but just know that the system really is rigged against you here, but it's also rigged against a whole lot of people in many ways that go far beyond college admissions. If you're lucky, this experience will help develop your empathy and leave a chip on your shoulder too. Both of those things will prove advantageous if and when you obtain the means to help fix these systemic issues. Solidarity, friend.
