Good article, but it doesn’t address the mixed self reporting status of many native Americans. It also doesn’t address the prevalence of preferences for African immigrants, who are black and poor, but didn’t suffer the historical injustices.

In fact, there are studies showing how a disproportionate chunk of African-Americans at Ivy League schools are recent immigrants from the Caribbean or Africa, often children of skilled upper class professionals.
