This week, the US Supreme Court struck down the use of Affirmative Action in higher education, in one of the most widely watched cases of the summer.
As part of his television reporting, Trymaine Lee had a conversation with professor Cara McClellan of the University of Pennsylvania’s law school in the lead up to the decision. They talked about the history of this policy, as well as the stakes of losing it. And we wanted to share the conversation with you here on the pod as well.
