Supreme Court Could Soon End Affirmative Action

Vox looks at a Supreme Court case which could “end all race-conscious admissions programs altogether.”

“The Harvard case is the first major affirmative action suit to reach the Supreme Court since Republicans gained a 6-3 majority on that Court, and it’s the first such case to reach the justices since Anthony Kennedy’s retirement in 2018. Kennedy had unexpectedly cast the key vote to uphold an affirmative action program in Fisher v. University of Texas at Austin in 2016.”
