I have an idea for future AA bake sales--
Instead of adjusting prices for race &/or gender, charge the same price to everyone but supply a different amount of cookies for that price. A degree costs everyone (except for out of state students) the same no matter who's paying for it.
white male: 1 cookie/50 cents
American African male: 2 cookies/50 cents
American African female: 3 cookies/50 cents
American Asians if overrepresentation of minority population: 1/2 cookie for 50 cents
and so on.
And by all means get some good cookies!
As to the future meeting regarding your bake sale, I would ask anyone that's alleging racism to define what racism means. I'm really curious & I'm betting that you will hear that 'if it offends a minority it's racist'. (Please, please, please ask a few people to define racism & report back what they say!)
BTW, 'racism' is defined by Dictionary.com as
1.The belief that race accounts for differences in human character or ability and that a particular race is superior to others.
2. Discrimination or prejudice based on race.
Looks like college admissions based on race, an act of discrimination, is racism in practice. Of course I know how to read a dictionary.
There are some scholarships available only to blacks, or women, or American Indians, or minority women, etc ... so these people pay less, on average, than white males do. In which case, the cookies should all cost the same, but with "scholarships" that amount to refunds if one is in an affirmative class.
