When Race Trumps Merit (Heather Mac Donald) 6/29/23
About this episode
We welcome back Heather Mac Donald of the Manhattan Institute to discuss her newest book with DW Books "When Race Trumps Merit". What is disparate impact, and why do policies written in favor of that legal theory do more harm than good? (Note: the episode was recorded before the ruling was released in Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard)
