Wide Spectrum of Voices Denounce SCOTUS Rejection of Affirmative Action
June 29, 2023
Congresswoman Sydney Kamlager-Dove: “Today is a dark day for equality and democracy in our nation. This ruling to end affirmative action sets the clock back on civil rights, overturning decades of precedent and establishing a colorblind standard in our justice system that will be detrimental to cases on race and equality in the future. The Court today chose wrong when they ruled to ignore race in a nation that has yet to accept its history rooted in racism.
