...however, when your neighborhood is poor, your primary school is not of quality. It's a systemic and accepted second-classicism that damns poor black kids to a place from where we debate if affirmative action really is a solution.

While no one desires to send their kids to an inner city, under-performing school, the numbers actually tell a story that doesn't support your premise. Children of engaged parents tend to do well in life no matter what school they attended. Parents turn out to be so much more important to a child's development, both academically and socially, than a school ever could be. But unfortunately, in our society, you're a racist if you go by the numbers in this case.

Off topic, but diversity is a bullshit argument vis-a-vis affirmative action. We shouldn't be afraid to call affirmative action what it is: indirect reparations, and there's nothing wrong with that. Its attempting to right an egregious wrong. But we also shouldn't be afraid to scrap it in the face of all the empirical evidence that says its failed. Diversity was never the original goal of affirmative action, and it shouldn't be the de facto goal now that its the only one that the Court allows. It should be replaced by a new, more creative system that doesn't carry the same baggage of the last decades. I don't have a clue what that would look like, but ideas are needed in this regard; the status quo isn't good enough.
