I have NEVER understood why they never counted Asians as minorities.
Unless the definition of the word “minority” has changed Asians would qualify-——and in 30 years Caucasians will qualify.
.
Asians don't burn down their own neighborhoods, they have too much money, they don't threaten to kill Whitey, they aren't as reliable nanny-state leftist vote slaves, and they aren't as easily manipulated
Whites were . a minority in the freshman class in 2017.

QUOTING HARVARD: “Harvard is responsible for protecting the confidential and highly sensitive personal information entrusted to us. We are committed to safeguarding privacy while ensuring that the public has the access that it is entitled to under the law ........"
Well, I'll be dammed. Harvard has the same PR person as Zuckerburg and Facebook. And we all know how THAT turned out.
ROTFLOL.

Mears, as asian American I can answe you that question. The word ‘miniority’ is political coded word referring only to blacks and Hispanics. The coded words are more deceiving and political and culturally convenient.
“Unless the definition of the word “minority” has changed Asians would qualify-——and in 30 years Caucasians will qualify.”
At my last three employers, all defense contractors, Asians and Hispanics did not count. I asked the HR lady at the final place whether it mattered if we filled out the race part. Wide-eyed and innocent she said, I check every day to see if any blacks have applied so I can set them up for an interview. If it isn’t filled in we know the candidate is white. She said that in a dismissive tone. I was applying for the job I was performing as a contractor, but as the only open highly compensated position, they wanted to hire a black. There was a bonus clause in the contract if they qualified by hiring a black.
So, is there discrimination in hiring and promotions, yes. But it’s not what CNN says it is.
In the minds of the white Left-wing self-annointed saviors of black people, “minority” is a synonym for “inferiority,” meaning they consider blacks to be inferior and in need of their rescue services.
In order to be a minority, you have to be on food stamps, welfare, in a gang and never know who the male lineage is in your family.
Minority means blacks, Hispanics (with a Hispanic last name) and Indians, even fake ones like Warren.
They discriminate against Jews and Asians for the simple fact that Jews and Asians (for various reasons from IQ to culture) will take over a high performing school -— and they view that as a bad thing. So they have higher standards for those groups — and Jews still end up with 1/4 the slots despite the bigotry.
I first heard this at orientation on first day of grad school about 30 years ago.
There were, we were told, underrepresented and overrepresented minorities.
That was their excuse or reasoning.
Probably because unlike a lot of other minorities, Asians tend to take care of themselves....they don’t make good targets for super leftist ideas.
