seems like a silly request doesnt it? more black people are in the NBA because more black people are good at basketball. If more white people were good at basketball, more white people would be in the NBA? right? simple.

It's the same way with scholarships, engineering jobs, political offices or anything else. Quit using race as an excuse. anytime black people dont succeed at something, its blamed on race. Everyone has an equal opportunity to do anything they want.

That is a straw man argument. No one here is arguing we need to have the same number of blacks or whites getting scholarships. I'm certainly not. That being said, saying we all have equal opportunities is pure naivite. In this country we all have great potential to succeed but the world is full of biases and unequal opportunity and we will never abolish that completely.
