It's pretty clear that we aren't going to reach agreement about strong affirmative action and compensation.

Let's think about other approaches. Usually when we evaluate policies politically or morally we spend most of our time thinking about their CONSEQUENCES. That's especially true when we discuss economic policies. And affirmative action is, among other things, a kind of economic policy that influences the distribution of two very important kinds of things: jobs and higher education.

Let's look at it in terms of its consequences, both good and bad.
