BREAKING NEWS: Supreme Court Ends Affirmative Action in Education In Landmark Ruling - BET
In response to the Supreme Court’s decision to strike down the use of affirmative action in admissions policies, Democrats for Education Reform DC (DFER DC) released the following statement:
“By gutting equitable access to our country’s higher education system, today's majority conservative Supreme Court ruled against Black and Brown students’ access to the American Dream,” said Jessica Giles, Executive Director of DFER DC. “This ruling erases decades of progress – a particularly concerning reality given our higher-education system continues to uphold systemic, racist barriers to entry that keep doors of opportunity closed on Black and Brown students.”
