Probably a positive. Affirmative action should be based on income, not race, with American citizens prioritized. That way AA will still help those who need it the most (ADOS, second gen Mexican Americans) anyways.

Bad class-reductionist take. You realize black and brown people face hardships that cannot solely be explained by income, right?

Of course, racism is a disgusting scourge on society. But that should go without saying, and that doesn't mean race should play a role in admission to University. My policy would help middle and working class American citizens, most of whom these days are non white anyways. Why are you okay with wealthy Ghanaians taking advantage of this system when they could easily just pay like the rich white folks they have much more in common with culturally?
