Where is the equal treatment?

Because for 8 years, that school had NO PROBLEM WHATSOEVER acknowledging black students doing well. And let's face it: this school is in OMAHA, Nebraska, with only 56 black students in it (out of over 1600). You honestly think that if they decide to make an award for all students, that there isn't a chance that a black student would not be overlooked (and some lame ass excuse used for WHY they were overlooked)?
