Unsurprised that the conservative majorty on this Supreme Court struck down affirmative action. I'm Anti-surprised, in fact. They'll likely do the same thing to student debt relief, later today or tomorrow.

It'll take about 3 years to see the full effects of today's decision across the higher education landscape; these justices won't care then, either.

If you want real remedies for centuries of inequity, inequality, and injustice, this court isn't where you need to go.

Hit the ballot box, the city council chambers, or the streets, instead.

What a sad mess.

Gonna try to stay offline for a while today.

Before I go, though, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson's dissent in today's affirmative action decision starts on page 209, here:

And you should really read it.

“Ignoring race will not equalize a society that is racially unequal. What was true in the 1860s, and again in 1954, is true today. Equality requires acknowledgment of inequality.” Justice Sotomayor
