| Abstract | It's not clear how supportive African Americans are of racial preferences. Supporters of preferences like to use the term "affirmative action," which is supported by most African Americans, but it is not the same thing. The old forms of affirmative action--positive, proactive measures to end discrimination, and aggressive outreach and recruiting in markets shunned by those uninterested in the minorities there--are legally unproblematic and accepted by everyone. The only kind of affirmative action at issue today is preferential treatment, something African Americans are less likely to endorse. This article provides support for this argument and concludes when added up, the costs of racial preferences clearly outweigh any benefit and African Americans should oppose them. (ERIC). |
