	15	+** Example: The poorest homeless Black man is encouraged to have pride in his race, while a White president cannot express pride in his heritage without backlash. This is extended into entire months of celebration and associated White guilt indoctrination on the one group of children forbidden any such ethnic solidarity.
16	16	* **Racial Grievances Taken Seriously**:
17	17	** Nonwhite groups have their grievances acknowledged and addressed at societal, political, and academic levels, often leading to policy changes.
18	18	** Example: Historical grievances such as slavery or colonialism are frequently discussed and prioritized, while white communities face erasure of their historical suffering or contributions.
19	19	* **No Collective Guilt**:
20	20	** Nonwhite individuals are not burdened with collective guilt over historical or current actions of their racial group.
21		-** Example: No classes or public narratives exist to guilt nonwhite children about their ancestors' actions, whereas white children are often taught to carry guilt for events like slavery or colonization.
	21	+** Example: No classes or public narratives exist to guilt nonwhite children about their ancestors' actions, whereas white children are often taught to carry guilt for events like slavery or colonization. Blacks are never held to collective responsibility, sometimes even being explicitly excused from such on the basis of their race for the actions they commit in the present. White students on the other hand, are given no such leniency, are expected to succeed and told they have advantages and a far easier path, whilst being held to a collective standard of guilt for the past they never even knew or experienced.

	39	+** Preferential treatment in college admissions and job hiring for nonwhite candidates leads to systemic exclusion of equally or more qualified individuals from other groups. Not only have schools openly stated they will continue to prioritize diversity in spite of the Supreme Court's ruling on the matter, organizations like the NAACP initiated campaigns such as the Diversity No Matter What{{footnote}} https://naacp.org/actions/diversity-no-matter-what{{/footnote}} for schools to pledge their rejection of law.
	40	+** This is on top of lowered testing requirements for admissions for blacks and Hispanics compared to Whites and Asians. There are also many instances of schools dropping certain testing requirements altogether. In certain cases where testing was removed out of necessity due to Covid, schools were resistant to bringing them back{{footnote}} https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/article/2024/jun/20/university-require-sat-act-test-diversity{{/footnote}} because the diversity increases were seen as a more valuable tradeoff.
