1961 - John Kennedy started an initiative to help basically anyone who wasn't white. This was the first of it's kind. Over the years, it was expanded more and more until eventually, President Bill Clinton used it. Offering (primarily) African Americans the chance at college. The recent women's rights movements (based around sexual violence, unfortunately), seems to try and tap into this.
My sister-in-law- a straight-A student, was denied from University of GA over this. Federal law REQUIRED they have a proportional ethical mix, even though her grades far exceeded most students. She accepted at University of Florida instead.
This sort of behavior, where government dictates how, "well, we don't have enough ________ yet, so we cant _________". Is a defeatist attitude. Black kids are getting in colleges for the sake of being black, not their merit, not their scores. If scores on a test doesn't matter, and all that matters is the color of your skin, then what the fuck are we doing?
American education is piss-poor and I am ashamed of it.

People who don't realize how affirmative action is bad for everyone involved need shot.
