% Immigrant Blacks in US Colleges

<p>This is not true at all!!
If you lived in Nigeria or Jamaica and see how it is, EVERYONE WANTS TO GET OUT OF THE COUNTRY!! the only reason people aren’t leaving is probably because they can’t afford the money or they didn’t get their visas.
There’s no risk in getting out of the world’s 10th corrupt country or so. Everyone wants to leave trust me!!
You’re not leaving behind family roots because you’ll keep phone calls, your language, culture e.t.c. and even when you’re settled, visit once in a while.
It wasn’t a risk for irish families to immigrate when there was the potato famine was it?</p>

<p>Even though it’s true that the rich families have the edge because they have connections and can afford to leave, it still doesn’t make any difference because If you look into it, you’ll find out that rich people whether immigrant or native have the edge in elite colleges or any college at all</p>

<p>so, take out affirmative action (the way it’s currently set up) and replace it with one that accepts based on economic factors (ie poor black kids get in easier than rich black kids) you’ll find out that Immigrant Blacks will still be in the lead!!</p>
