73. That's A A Difference Without A Distinction

You have traditionally African American and Native American institutions that were born out of the battles against racism and colonialism and still exist today because the battles are not over. Such institutions include the Congressional Black Caucus, the American Indian College Fund, the United Negro College Fund, Miss Black America, the traditionalally African American Universities such as Furman and Fiske, et cetera. There are legitimate reasons for their existence.

You are hsnging your proverbial hat on the word "discrimination" but in the context you want to employ it makes no sense.
