I told you I share your goal, but the better (and more acceptable way of getting there) is to pour all your efforts into expanding equality of opportunity, not equality of outcome (quotas) which in the end will cause even more racism and perceived injustices.

Do you want the best pilots flying your plane or operating on your brain (black, white or brown) or would you feel more comfortable in a system where quotas dictate who is in front? I’d like the best regardless of race! So let’s focus the efforts on bringing opportunities and support to potential minority populations not to guarantee slots based on race (that’s the easier, cheaper, and most destructive to a merit based society).... How about we get to your end goal the right way (although it might take more money and effort)?
