- A Florida Reader Asks Why Hispanics Qualify For
Affirmative Action
A Colorado Reader Says Diversity Has
Done Nothing For Blacks
From:

Boulder, CO is a
sanctuary city, and I’m sure that many Latino
students at the University of Colorado-Boulder are
illegal aliens or children of illegal aliens.
A
recent Colorado Daily story shows that promoting more "students
of color" has
done nothing for blacks. Last year at U.C.-Boulder,
enrollment of “diverse” students increased 20
percent over the previous year. Latino and Asian
students account for 6 percent each.
Yet while the Latino and Asian student body surged,
black enrollment at the University of Colorado-Boulder
has remained flat for 17 years. In 2005 and 1988 alike,
African-Americans constituted 1.5 percent of
enrollment.[Tempering
numbers for minorities, Paula Pant, Colorado

How is this good for blacks or for America?
What this so-called diversity proves is that the
Rainbow Coaltion isn't serving blacks, many of who
are descendants of those who have been here since the
founding of our nation.
Graham, a
regular contributor to VDARE.COM, makes a point similar
to July Johnson’s June 28th
letter that mentioned that
black students at UCLA are losing out to Hispanics and
Asians regarding enrollment percentages.
