Hypocrites. Look at how Asians are targeted in hate crime in France, by both whites and non whites. Covid being called the "China virus" threw oil on this fire.
Here, the issue the school board is that it has only 1 Asian America (10%) for a 33% SFUSD student body.
The way I see it, Asians always get the short end of the stick, for some reason unknown.
In the US, there are anti Asian admission policies in most universities, and somehow we can't make that stop.
Maybe because they are called "equal opportunity" and made to favor other races who can use it to get admitted with a fraction of the SAT (and predictably fail, while other races with higher scores are not even given the chance to compete).
Now we hear France hypocrisy and think it will make this right. People, look at what happens there and tell me to my face you think they got it right and we should emulate them:

I say no. French thinkers would be best to focus on their own problems, and leave us alone.
We have a problem with Asian representation, but so far I have not seen anything I can support.
