This is a ridiculous comment which has nothing to do with the data presented. This graph mostly implies how much each group pursues masters level education. Nothing about this graph says anything about discrimination. The real question is what is motivating each group to pursue or not pursue masters level education, and why some groups pursue it more than others.
Remember, to get a masters degree a person has to choose to apply for a masters program. Universities aren’t scanning the general population for choice candidates, which is why your comment suggesting discrimination against Asian students or preference for Black students is irrelevant to the discussion of this data.
