In all the rantings and ravings of white supremacists and racists, one theme that comes up often is that POC think they are owed something or want something for nothing, in general, it’s in reference to affirmative actions.

One thing they seem to bypass is that if equality existed, if there were no systemic racism in place, affirmatives actions would become unnecessary and would fade away. But as it is affirmative actions are necessary to counter the systemic racism that exists on all levels.

If POC were given raises or promotions for equal work and capabilities as their white counterparts, there would be no need for businesses to have quotas either.

If wages were higher, things like food stamps and CHIPS would eventually become obsolete. Higher wages are necessary for people to live with the basics without asking the government for help.
If history incorporated black achievements and participation, there would be no need for black history month.
The problem has never been affirmative action, I for one would like to see it disappear, the problem is the need for affirmative actions. And there is great need.
