Sarah Isgur and David French sit down with Justin Driver, the Robert R. Slaughter Professor of Law at Yale Law School, to talk about his new book, The Fall of Affirmative Action: Race, the Supreme Court, and the Future of Higher Education. They explore the landmark case Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard, a ruling celebrated by conservatives as a victory for colorblind principles and criticized by progressives as a blow to racial equity. But according to Driver, both perspectives miss the mark.
The Agenda:
- DMing Pam Bondi?
- Brendan Carr weaponizing the FCC
- ‘I sued the Obama administration.’
- Victimization and mismatch in affirmative action arguments
- SFFA and race neutral mechanisms
- The future of race-neutral policies
