Maybe the new affirmative action is visible minorities or other groups just get free education?

But then you’d need a K-12 system that doesn’t fail them or set them up for not succeeding by getting them into lower stream courses.

Free prenatal and neonatal care seems like an obvious first step. It's literally taking care of the unborn and babies, so they have a healthy start to life. (I similarly believe education, school breakfasts and lunches, and pediatric care should be free.)

We could sidestep all the drama by letting anyone who meets the academic qualifications attend public universities and colleges without tuition (or at least an insubstantial fees). We might actually end up with a system like we had 75 years ago… but with less overt racism and sexism.

It would be great.

But K-12 delivery would need to be reasonably similar quality everywhere, and it’s not, and that would take a decade or two of waiting.
