and i think that across the board, the vast majority of the american people don t agree with a lot of the decisions the courts are making. president biden in an exclusive interview with my colleague, nicolle wallace, responding to today s very predictable supreme court decision on affirmative action. and that is where we begin tonight, with the united states supreme court once again turning the arc of justice away from equality and back to the early 20th century. striking down the use of affirmative action in college admissions. the roberts court, which wouldn t even look like the court it is today without affirmative action, decided that race conscious admissions programs at harvard university and the university of north carolina violate equal protection under the constitution. it is fitting then that it would be the court s first black woman justice, ketanji brown jackson, who clearly articulated the cost of this latest regression. writing in her dissent, with let ....
And in rage about that. it feels to me like this court represents that same rage. they hate these changes, these modernizations and the latino community is at the center of a lot of that anger. what do you make of this decision? exactly. i think what the supreme court was trying to do today was to take us back, and to deny the fact that racial discrimination has existed, has existed since the beginning of our country, and that racial discrimination against native americans, against enslaved blacks, against those who then came later, latinos, aapi, and so many more, that that took a lot of work to create. and that s why affirmative action was important. we needed to be able to create that opportunity so that we could undo the discrimination, so we could undo the inequality. i agee with justice sotomayor s ....
