When the system is dominated by the majority, and has been for a long time, a correction requires being “discriminatory against the majority”.

“The system” itself was incorrect before. This is why it’s called systemic racism/sexism/etc.

But the kids applying to colleges today had nothing to do with the history. A white (or asian) boy won't get accepted to his chosen college because of something he had no influence on, be it "history" or his skin color and gender.

Is collective punishment of kids for something they had nothing to do with really the answer?
