It's not wrong if the discrimination benefits a "protected class" of society.

Just ask your government.

From UNCF website...



UNCF - Facts and Questions


Q. Does UNCF help only African Americans?

Not at all. UNCF's member colleges and universities admit students without reference to race or ethnicity. UNCF's largest scholarship program, the Gates Millennium Scholars Program, supports Hispanic American, Asian/Pacific American and Native American students as well as African Americans.

So...why retain the word NEGRO in the name of the fund?

Why not call it the united college fund?

Don't see white americans mentioned in there anywhere. The question was can a WHITE person apply for, and receive, benefits from the UNCF. Not just if a white person can go to a UNCF sponsored school.
Interesting question........

Why don't they update the word Negro in their name?

















It should be the United Nizzle College Fund.
