affirmative action is racism based upon your skin color

the link you provided is what MLK dreamed about:
The actual phrase "affirmative action" was first used in President Lyndon Johnson's 1965 Executive Order 11246 which requires federal contractors to "take affirmative action to ensure that applicants are employed, and that employees are treated during employment, without regard to their race, creed, color, or national origin."

today's affirmative action has no resemblance to it's origins

you want examples?
