Racism Rooted in Our Evolutionary Past

[Trumplestiltskin 5,791]

And the word "Faggot" does?

Look if you can't list the traits or qualities campus diversity enhances ... just say so.

I responded to one post.

You're trying to hijack the thread with a completely irrelevant tangent.

I do get the "historical" angle but every time this issue is discussed, especially in the university context, it's always about adding "diversity" to the college campus, in fact this is the basis for defending their policies in court.

If people have no genetic dispositions... why is a genetic marker such as skin color the primary marker as to what social traits one would automatically add to an environment?

Since no one seems to be willing to list what exactly these attributes might be.... would you care to offer a few?

I for one would like to know exactly what social traits Blacks (or other races) might individually add?

Your list please?

You are assuming campus diversity is also my contextual support for diversifying. It is not. Hence you are requesting something based on a null. Furthermore that context you generalize to seeking enrolled diversity when in fact the point is altogether different and one that transcends the confines of academia. The racism component is one that also transcends academia.
