"In a society still scarred by the wounds of racial disparities, the Supreme Court has displayed a willful ignorance of our reality." —@DerrickNAACP Today's decision on affirmative action jeopardizes hard-fought progress for Black Americans. Read more: bit.ly/3NzS8mu
We should not need #AffirmativeAction. But we do. Because racism, particularly anti-Black racism, persists in our systems, policies, and institutions. Until we change that, decision-makers must be made to make equitable decisions. The #SupremeCourt ruling prevents that mandate.
