People understand that it contributes

22:47

to the morale of the community,

22:49

so you want a decent athletic team.

22:51

But it's not meritorious when it comes to academic criteria,

22:55

if they meet minimal qualifications.

22:58

At this point everybody says fine.

23:02

But then you introduce racial diversity

23:05

and all hell breaks loose.

23:07

You get a whole theory about the decline of civilization.

23:10

And all you're trying to do is allow some of the children

23:15

of the foremothers and forefathers from slavery

23:18

and Jim Crow to be part of a pool

23:22

who meet minimum qualifications

23:24

to gain access to the very institutions
