You cannot undo these injustices anymore. You try to fix these injustices on the backs of others with racial discrimination. This is the objective thing you are doing. If you are white and believe corrections are in order, you have to step back and nobody else but you.

But since you probably won't, your proclamation to fight racism is very hollow. You might just like to discriminate, projecting your anger or vanity on others.

The goal is to reach equality and you are in the way of it. There aren't any metrics that could satisfy the strive to "diversity" anyway.

> But I would encourage you to focus on the much more widespread similar feeling felt by those being helped up by such efforts.

We teach 4 year olds about the problems with compensatory justice, but you are revealing yourself with that comment. Worse, you try to compensate for different generations. People championing diversity call themselves progressive but at the same time espouse ethics from the 17th century. But here racism is primarily a you problem, not a society problem.
