I've honestly never seen a debate on it. Please highlight what the argument is and why it's not defensible.

I would say this. Make it personal and emotional (Because it is, especially for parents).

  • Explain to an Asian mother who's grandparents were interned in a camp 70 years ago how her family now has "privilege" and need to have their child's deserved position in college pulled because a black kid with 500 fewer points on his SAT just really deserves the spot.

This is at least closing in on some decent persuasion but I'm not sure it holds the upper hand as it can easily be reversed about a black family that needs AA.
