GP Anecdotally and based on personal experience (from the early 1990s) I can tell you that the Georgetown law professor's statement about black students being among the lowest achievers in her classes were accurate then as well.

GP It absolutely is. The American difference these days is far less race (at least for our generation and those below us) than it is class. But we're still pretending it's all race because class still correlates strongly with race.

and, as you say, it's not the poor blacks who benefit from these programs - it's the upper middle class, who know how to exploit the system. Poor blacks living in projects who could USE a hand don't know how to pull the strings and fill in the forms. What a tragedy.
