And if you can “identify” as female, why not as “black” or “hispanic”?
If the packet was obviously excluding anyone of African ancestry, there’d be “outrage”,
so, you did the right thing.
entry cover-charge at $100, but offered an 80%-off discount if you were visibly of European descent. I would have few, if any, non-white customers

Now, you know that would NEVER fly.....
Remember a few years back when some ‘Men’ lodged law suits because ‘Hooters’ would not even allow them to apply for a job and others sued over establishments offering ‘Ladies Night’ saying it was unfair to Males (and I guess the LGMVDSLSMFT crowd felt ‘insulted’ when she-boys were not included as ‘Ladies Night’ eligible).
I personally thought the suits frivolous BUT it may have brought light to just how ‘idiotic’ we have become.—
Of course, the only ones that really noticed were those of us that knew we were/are in ‘trouble’.
“...America is (or was) supposed to be a melting pot, with advancement due to one’s ability...”
You didn’t start this - the other side did. They took advantage of the natural and compassionate decency of American folks - our people - and used it against us.
It’s called Self-Preservation and Cultural Survival now, unfortunately. That’s the reality we have to deal with.
But yes, I get your point as well.
Black privilege.
DevBootCamp should be outed for the racists they are.
But on their own webpage, they cannot figure out how to put in a decent left margin, and they have a tab that overlaps the main body of text -- and you cannot remove it or collapse it.
SIGN ME RIGHT UP FOR *THAT*!!!!
And their ‘Alumni’ are a bunch of failed 3rd world nobodies. Don’t sweat it.
Legality doesn’t enter into the discussion. There are many laws that are invalid, and don’t apply.
It’s WRONG. Unfair.
or native American, based on high cheekbones and family lore
“How the heck can a “scholarship” awarded by an educational institution based on race or sex be legal?”
Imagine the uproar if a scholarship fund was earmarked “Whites Only.”
I actually DO have that claim, based on pretty much the same thing - plus pictures & diary entries.
Anyway... I haven’t tried to “game” it as I’m no democRat.
I read the page, and did some reviews. $12,500 for essentially four months of intensive coding, or about $800 per week, not including food and lodging is rather harsh. To be blunt, if you have the Internet and put in the same amount of time, and you can join a couple of coding groups as well, you can probably do the same thing in maybe a little more time for considerably less money. Perhaps the job placement may be worth it IF you can get a job, but I’ll be blunt: if the school were THAT confidant you can get a job, they would not require the money up front.
Frankly, I would see this as an opportunity for a competitor to come in and offer the same thing, but with a job GUARANTEE for graduates that pass. If such jobs are really in demand, this would be a no-brainer for the most part.
I am starting the Transracial movement to take advantage of these programs. Whites can feel and identify as any race they want. Same for blacks, Asians, arabs, Persians, Indians, everyone. Everyone can chose whichever race they identify with and be granted the entitlements given to the race of their choosing.
If some freakshow that chopped off his own penis and stuffed a bunch of silicon in his chest can identify as a woman than I can sure identify myself as a Filipino.
