(Edit: after re-reading (or perhaps just plain reading) BoR's original post, I noted that I misunderstood his intent.)

Creating an award to celebrate a black persons achievments is all fine and good, but let's call it what it is. Is Trevor not an african american? He is a south african native who is now an american, thus an african american. By disallowing Trevor to take part in this award is segregating this award.

In a perfect world, awards would not be needed in specific social groups, they would be open to any and all. I feel King's ultimate goal is not that black people be treated the same as white people but that *all* people be treated equally, and the high-school is not helping this at all.
