Questioning the effectiveness of affirmative action in helping African-Americans

The speaker questions the effectiveness of affirmative action in helping African-Americans, pointing out that there are more Nigerians at Harvard than African-Americans. They believe that the promotion of race theory is not related to actual genetics and is only a government categorization. The speaker argues that bringing in lots of literal Africans and West Indians under the guise of helping African-Americans indicates a failure in pursuing the goal. They also mention that studies have shown that affirmative action did not actually help African-Americans, and attribute this to the programs being designed for and most beneficiaries being African, not African-American.
