Following the Supreme Court's ruling to outlaw affirmative action in college admissions, NBA legend Charles Barkley amended his will to leave money to his alma mater.
"In case after case, including recently, just a few years ago in 2016, the court has affirmed and reaffirmed this view that colleges could use race, not as a determining factor for admission, but as one of the factors among many in deciding who to admit," Biden said."…the court once again walked away from decades of precedent."Charles Barkley on air before the NCAA Final Four game between Connecticut and San Diego State on April 3, 2023, in Houston, Texas.
"Today the Supreme Court has bowed to the personally held beliefs of an extremist minority. We will not allow hate-inspired people in power to turn back the clock and undermine our hard-won victories. The tricks of America's dark past will not be tolerated," NAACP President Derrick Johnson wrote in a statement.
"Let me be clear – affirmative action exists because we cannot rely on colleges, universities and employers to enact admissions and hiring practices that embrace diversity, equity and inclusion," he continued."Race plays an undeniable role in shaping the identities of and quality of life for Black Americans. In a society still scarred by the wounds of racial disparities, the Supreme Court has displayed a willful ignorance of our reality.
