Description

For decades, over multiple decisions, the Supreme Court has been clear: The U.S. Constitution allows colleges to take race into account when they craft their incoming classes. And yet race-conscious admissions policies continue to face attacks.

Today, on part three of our four-part series on affirmative action, we’ll meet the man who has perhaps done more than any other in recent memory fighting to end the use of race in America’s public policies. Will Edward Blum be successful in convincing today’s solidly conservative high court to end affirmative action in education?

Guests:


  • Edward Blum, president of Students for Fair Admissions

  • Ted Shaw, professor at the University of North Carolina School of Law

  • Garrett Epps, professor at the University of Oregon School of Law
