As a white male (and simply as human being who believes in fairness), I would say I'm concerned with this trend. Positive discrimination for some means negative discrimination for others. I think we should give unprivileged people access to good education, but I'm against quotas.

I used to work in academia in computer science. There were no written rules but the recruiting committees always favoured minorities and women. It was obvious when looking at the stats.

I work now for a big tech company. The policy is that the hiring bar is the same for all candidates, but they're actively looking for candidates from minorities to interview. I'm fine with that approach.
