If you goal is to improve this country, then you need to ask yourself why there are rules, and how they actually work out.
If your goal is to end discrimination, will telling people they cant for x reason but not y really do much?
I would say it does a ton! I mean we say you can't for x reason but not y all the time. That's basically mens rea in a nutshell. Most crimes are only crimes because of the reason why you took that action.
Aggressive government intervention eliminated in a matter of years a systemic exclusion from public spaces for black people that had persisted for centuries. If that's not success I don't know what is?
