This is stated by a person that has no clue that even though America may be "dysfunctional" that even the "blacks" at "the bottom of the food chain" are not starving. I'd like to consider the society pretty damn functional as I can see!
P.S. This is all stated from a black woman who has a college degree and is currently pursuing another and that is FAR from the bottom of anything.

BSc. Mathematics- Uni. Of Waterloo
PhD. Financial engineering- Columbia University.
Trust me, spending a few months at wall Street and seeing what the white elitist do, to corporate America, I arrived at this conclusion.

where did i mention that I lived in Nigeria? affirmative action has really done more harm than good.

Where did I mention affirmative action and how has it been harmful?
Affirmative Action was created so that blacks and other non-whites could attend colleges and universities who in the past weren't aloud simply because of their race, it didn't matter how intelligent they were, only skin color mattered.

So meritocracy should have be thrown to the dogs?; Whites still outearn blacks, incarceration rates are still over the roof; SAT/ACT scores of blacks is still in the 25th percentile; black population in science(not Gademm nursing) is still abysmally low. I have been with the corporate elite of uncle sam, and the place and plan for black America is a disaster waiting to be seen.

I don't think there is anything wrong with Affirmative action. White people had about 500 years head start so its going to take a while for blacks to catch up with white people. I do agree with you that black Americans registration is very low in STEM programs across most colleges in US. Also the unemployment rate among blacks is twice that of whites and Asians so it means less opportunity for blacks that is the reason for affirmative action. I do think blacks in America still have to do more in improving their lives like improving on the high school graduation rate among blacks and stop having kids out of wedlocks.
