Jews and other minorities suddenly anti-diversity when it impacts their kids

Typical. A wonderful article on the push to get more black and latino students into the higher tier NYC schools shows the utter hypocrisy of the Jewish and Democratic left. Instead of welcoming diversity, the parents (all of whom probably vote Democrat) are fighting against more diversity.
"DOE dispatched a senior official — Deputy Chancellor Josh Wallack — to one of its citywide presentations on a plan that aims to increase black and Latino enrollment at the primarily Asian and white schools by scrapping a single-test-score admission system."
Primarily Asian and White? This is 2018, schools like Stuyvesant are predominantly Asian.
This proposal is nothing about education and all about division,” said objector Wai Wah Chin. “We are going to look at your race and say, ‘Oh, your parents cook the food, deliver it, they wash your clothes, but you can’t get in. Because we don’t like your race or national background.’ ” 
Yeah, well how do you think whites feel having to put up with discrimination via affirmative action?
If this proposal is enacted, we are going to increase the racism and prejudice of our kids in the specialized high schools,” said NYU sociology professor and District 2 parent Jonathan Haidt. 
Oh look, a Jewish university professor suddenly telling us that diversity is not always good.
"He argued that black and Latino students admitted through modified entrance requirements would inevitably become stigmatized – and suffer for it."
How odd, that's the same argument used by Walter Williams, Thomas Sowell and other conservatives. Left wingers usually call such people 'racists'. Hmm.
"One parent, Sasha Rozenberg, asked the crowd for a show of hands of those who opposed the changes. With nearly every arm in the auditorium extended behind him, Rozenberg turned to look at Wallack. “Now a question for this administration,” he said. “What are you planning to do in the face of this overwhelming rejection of your proposal?”"
Nice, Sasha. There was overwhelming rejection of mass migration and forced school integration, but I don't recall Jews giving us an opt-out. Remember how your people have pushed the benefits of diversity on the rest of us?
