And if somebody self identifies as trans-racial.<p>All jokes aside, some white people grow up dirt poor in predominantly black neighborhoods and identify more with black Anerican culture then their own skin color.<p>Do they get better access to schools, scholarships, government jobs, funding for small businesses? Etc...<p>What about the black kid who grew up in the suburbs with a stable family and all whote friends. Should their access to the same programs be cut because they&#x27;re less likely to need it.<p>Categorization will never go away as long as people are incentivized to promote their identity as a &#x27;protected class&#x27;.<p>It has gotten to the point where everybody except white males falls under one or more protected classes.<p>I&#x27;m not claiming inequality is an issue that should continue to be addressed. I&#x27;m creating government mandated classes of people based on their race&#x2F;ethnicity and throwing money at the problem isn&#x27;t the solution. It replaces implicit descriminatiom with explicit descrimination.
