Before you begin your thinkpiece, the Supreme Court DID NOT strike down Affirmative Action Admission preferences for legacies, donors, employee families and special recommendations are still allowed The Court struck down Affirmative Action For everyone except WHITE PEOPLE

The biggest beneficiaries of affirmative action over the past 60 years have been white women. That remains unchanged. *Currently* most elite schools give a bump to white men, whose grades and scores are now consistency outpaced by women. They'll still get affirmative action too.

The Supreme Court's decision to strike down affirmative action, including in professional schools, like medical and nursing, will have detrimental consequences on Black health for generations to come. This is about life & death for us. Today, we are only 5% of physicians.

What I fail to understand is…if diversity in leadership is important for our military’s effectiveness (and it is), then why isn’t it important for the rest of the nation? In academia? In education? In opportunities?

To let you further know the Supreme Court is on some bullshit, they said it’s totally fine for military academies to consider race in admissions. Now why is that? businessinsider.com/supreme-court-…
