How is it not discriminatory to give one kid money based on their degree choice and not money to the other kid? Simply put: it's not. Just because it involves race, especially when it's used to narrow down a certain demographic, doesn't instantly make it racist. Same goes for gender, sexual preference, etc.
Degree choice is a choice. Skin Color is not.
Wasnt it MLK Jr. that said that he wanted people to be judged by the content of their character, not the color of their skin?
@below: I would agree that it would be a step in the right direction. If we want to stop racism, then we must stop discriminating and making such a big deal about our racial differences, which should not matter.
