Coverage

"One student argued that today's institutions and systems discriminate based on socioeconomic class rather than race."

"'Minorities in colleges are often expected to act like honorary white people,' said Kendall. 'They are asked to leave race at the door. What does this mean? It means that we white people are trained not to see our privileges as such. Then we try to teach minorities not to see white privilege too.'"
