Honestly, if the KKK would of offered me a full ride scholarship back in college I would of thrown on that white robe so fast it'd make martin luther king roll in his grave.

In reality it does nothing to help those that it was set up for since any type of affirmative action quota scholarship program is actually mismatching the beneficiary with a college education that might otherwise be a poor fit for them, hence they fail or drop out, all while blocking a slot for another well-deserving candidate.
A true misappropriation of educational resources for the sake of making political statements.
