That is how Justice Clarence Thomas views it. & he said so in his concuring opinion issued Thursday as a part of the US Supreme Court's latest ruling on using racial preferences. Chief Justice Roberts, in his writing of the Court's opinion got it right when he said: "The way to stop discrimination on the basis of race is to stop discriminating on the basis of race."
In otherwords, every human being deserves a fair chance. To tell somene that the only way you can make it because of your skin color is with special help is to tell that person that he or she is really 2nd class & not as good as a white person. Sorry, but I want the best person available. It should be simple, every person is hired for the job based on their talents & abilities. Color shouldn't be a factor in any way, shape or form.
We are all 1 race, the human race. & it is time for us to start acting on that fact. The Declaration of Independence says: "All men are created equal". Not some are, all. (& in this case the term men means mankind as a whole, not just males.) Discrimination is wrong & so is reverse discrimination!
