I propose a two-type Affirmative Action system for college admissions. It would give extra consideration to two groups: 1. Black Americans and Native Americans 2. Americans from poor backgroundshttps://twitter.com/business/status/1054374025374433280 …

Is there more? Latinos are ineligible? What about mixed race? What percentage black is "black?" What about Africans? Who gets hurt by the preferences -- Caucasians or Asians (like Harvard)?

Very good piece on a difficult topic. I think the historical lens is critical when evaluating affirmative action so I can understand limiting racial prefs to African & Native Americans. But how do we systematically & fairly determine whether someone is Black/Native?

fair enough. and the two tracks would be completely distinct? IOW, kids of Robert Smith, Michael Jordan, Barack Obama will all receive prefs?

The tracks would be cumulative. And yes, they absolutely would.
