In addition, the use of race as a proxy for 'opportunity' is thoroughly absurd.

My neighbors in law school were a white man and a black woman, both lawyers, with a daughter.

She will be given preferences for admission, scholarships, etc. solely because she claims to be black, even though she is more than 50% white (her mother is light skinned) and both her parents make solid six figure incomes.

Whereas a kid like I was - from the dirt, parents who were always struggling to pay the Household Finance monthly bill, would be considered to have a more advantageous position than their daughter in college admissions and scholarships.

Now, is that equality under the law? Really?

You are going to defend that?
