Affirmative action doesn't deter or solve discrimination. It bypasses proper investigation into statistical anomalies and just assumes everyone is guilty. As a result racist employers can still discriminate as long as they have 1 black community college boy in some portacabin somewhere managing stock control they can bring him up and say "we ain't raceest". The employers who chose uneducated white people over you were all following affirmative action legislation to the letter in the knowledge that the state is too corrupt and stupid to implement any actual anti-discrimination legislation.
Don't worry though, there are plenty of companies who need a token in a dead end job to fulfil their quota, thanks to affirmative action.
