Eps 0312 - SCOTUS Strikes Down Affirmative Action!

About this episode

#SCOTUS finally strikes down affirmative action, an excellent win for the individual American. Government talking heads and media types tell you that it's a sad day in America and that SCOTUS is taking us back to Jim Crow. Nothing could be further from the TRUTH. If you want to begin the process to Stop Discrimination on the Basis of Race then just STOP. Join me today as we listen to an ABC reporter do a pretty fair job questioning Vivek Ramaswamy on the subject. His answers are brilliant and my comments are equally brilliant!

The conservative majority of the U.S. Supreme Court has declared race-conscious admissions policies at colleges and universities across the country to be unlawful, effectively ending affirmative action in education. The landmark 6-3 ruling was along ideological lines and strikes down decades of precedent, but stops short of banning legacy admissions and allows military academies to continue using affirmative action. Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, the first Black woman to serve on the court, assailed the majority's "let-them-eat-cake obliviousness" to questions of racism and equity. We host a roundtable discussion on the ruling and its impact with Wisdom Cole, national director of the NAACP Youth and College Division; Janelle Wong, director of Asian American studies and a professor of American studies and government and politics at the University of Maryland; and Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Maria Hinojosa, founder of Futuro Media and host of the Latino USA podcast. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ODskHiGCNlQ
