Affirmative Action: Who does it really help? | Thomas Sowell

This video is a narration of the writings from Thomas Sowell, pictured below. I consider him to be one of the great intellectuals of the last 50 years. 

Here, the discussion deals with Affirmative Action, which as you all know (or should know by now) is mostly a failure. Not surprisingly, it is an invention of the Left, who are so desperate to “help” the “helpless” blacks in this country that they have done anything but…

It is sad but true that almost without exception every single policy initiated by liberals is a failure. Unfortunately, it is liberals who run our major and most populous cities as well as academia. Then people wonder why an entire segment of the black population in this country has made little progress in the last 50 years, with broken homes, poverty, crime, a high abortion rate and a low literacy rate in way too many households.
