Who is Previously disadvantaged

I'm a black guy - Poilitically correct is African male. I would think that I'd be previously disadvantaged, not according to some people at YFm.

I'm studying Radio broadcasting and completing my final year. So' there I went down to Yfm at The Zone to try and hustle for a job or an intern at least. To my shock, I was told that I wouldn't be considered highly to get the opportunity for an intern because I attend school at a "Advantaged" tertiary institution. I attend school at Boston Media House, but because I'm seeking a better education to provide a different type of radio entertainment to SA I'm being sidelined.

They said it would have been better if I went to a University or Technikon as opposed to a private institution. They don't teach in depth Radio broadcasting (inclusive of everything that occurs at a radio station), just Sound engineering.

AAhh!! I'm SO mad.

I'm still going to go back to Y and find out what is what, I'm still black and previously dis'd.
