Tip of the Tongue

In the midst of a discussion about race and America and jobs and other such things, my sister and I both forgot a key phrase.

"You know...when like...they say they want more blacks in a school or a job or...something. Like an advantage?"
"Right right, and its like a big contended thing and...Dear Lord what is that called?"
"Uh...um...Underprivileged Justice?"
"Something Advantage?
"Minority Priority?"

We make up several more, totally unable to grasp the real phrase, so we finished the conversation subbing in Minority Priority.
